BBC Anchor Shreds ‘Loser Jihadists’ Over Paris Attacks: You Will Be Dust

Andrew Neil, host of BBC One’s This Week, opened his political show with a blistering condemnation of “loser jihadis” for the attack that left 130 people dead in Paris one week ago.

Neil began by describing the attack as an attempt by ISIS to “prove the future belongs to them,” though he doesn’t fancy their chances against the French civilization. He continued to list off major social and political French figures who have influenced world history, while contrasting against what ISIS’ society offered.

“Liberté, égalité, fraternité, versus what,” Neil asked. “Beheadings, crucifixions, amputations, slavery, mass murder, medieval squalor and a death cult barbarity that would shame the Middle Ages.”

Neil also mocked their various names before landing on IS, for he felt that it was appropriate to refer to them as “islamist scumbags.” He finished the monologue by emphatically proclaiming that they will lose their war on France.

In a thousand year’s time, Paris, that glorious city of lights, will still be shining bright as will every other city like it. And you will be dust, along with the ragbag of fascist Nazis and Stalinists that previously dared to challenge democracy and failed.
