Ukraine arrests right-wing French terrorist
Fox News reports that the Ukrainian intelligence service SBU arrested Frenchman Gregoire Moutaux at the Yahodyn border crossing between Ukraine and Poland late last month. They had been monitoring him since December when they sold him five machine guns, two rocket-propelled grenade launchers, 275 pounds of TNT, 100 detonators and other weapons to carry out his dastardly plot to attack European Championship soccer tournament in France, Euro 2016.
Apparently, he disagreed with France’s immigration policies and the spread of Islam, so he was going to show them how much he disagrees;
The SBU “has managed to foil a series of 15 terrorist attacks which were planned to target France before and during” Euro 2016, said Vasyl Hrytsak, the security agency’s chief.

Extremist attacks are a major concern for French authorities as they prepare to host the month-long tournament at stadiums in the Paris area and eight other cities from Friday through July 10. Islamic State extremists have threatened France during the tournament, but authorities haven’t confirmed specific dangers.
France is deploying a 90,000-strong security force for the tournament, and President Francois Hollande said Sunday night that the threat of attacks won’t stop it from being successful.
From the UK’s Daily Mail;
‘He could have caused carnage,’ said the source, who also described Moutaux as ‘a farm worker from the Lorraine district of France, who objected to his country being taken over by immigrants.’
Moutaux was a confirmed Islamophobe and anti-Semite, and specifically wanted to targets mosques, synagogues, and ‘large crowds building up around Euro 2016.’
I guess that the Islamists wouldn’t like that very much – you know – being the target for a change. But, I’m against anyone who is innocent of wrong-doing being the victim of an unwarranted attack. Send Greg to fight ISIS instead.

Parachute Greggy into Raqqa and let loose the Dogs of War; that should keep him busy for awhile…
Seriously. Greg’s heart is in the right place, just in the – – – ummmm- – – wrong place.
Those boxes look cool. Where do I get some like that? I could store books in them.
Seriously, the guy’s heart is — well, I do understand his angst, but he’s misguided himself.
So you disagree with your government’s immigration and you plan to blow up a sporting event. Considering you’ll probably kill or injure a lot of citizens that share your views on immigration, isn’t that what they call an “own goal”? On the positive side you’ll probably thin the ranks of soccer hooligans.
Are we really islamophob”s when they are trying to kill us?
According to Prez Obozo, islam is the religion of peace and love.
The wookie rangler in chief have strongly stated that any resistance against Islamic terrorism is Islamophobia, and he is zmartest guy in the room.
So this guy travels from France to Ukraine to buy RPG’s, guns, TNT, and detonators? He couldn’t get a better price in Corsica,? Cannes,? Monaco? You’ve got to be kidding, right? Maybe he’s got a Ukrainian fetish. “Must have the Sickle” Maybe he thought bi-Sickle meant something else? Needed that Rocket in his pocket? He is a Frenchman. Could be he wanted the miles for his Michelin Rating? and didn’t realize his tires didn’t count? N’est-ce Pas?
My bet would be Marseille or Toulon; Cannes is a little classier.
“Moutaux was a confirmed Islamophobe….” Who confirmed his irrational fear of Islam, a psychiatrist? And what’s with this term, “extremist attacks?” Can’t say terror, terrorism, terrorist any longer? Is that it?
You are automatically right wing if you want to control immigration?
Someone tell North Korea, China, the old USSR and Mexico
I can understand being pissed off at muslim terrorists but killing a bunch of foreign nationals who are visiting to spend their money and watch futbol matches will do very little to get anyone on your side.
It’s a funny thing, but killing people doesn’t actually endear the families of the dead to your cause.
In fact the families are often looking for some measure of punishment and revenge..blood feuds are still potent realities around the world.
lol @ being proactive when Muslims are the targets.
France……….
That “vast arsenal” makes him almost as well armed as the Muslims. Certainly enough to attack 15 targets-all by himself, evidently. Too bad the French police aren’t as efficient at uncovering Muslim weapons purchases before they are used. I guess they need more “common sense” weapons laws.
How much for the RPGs?? My stock is running low.
This guy was just bringing his man cave up to standards.
Looks like my downstairs closet. He has a ways to go before I’d take him seriously. Of course, he is French…..
