PARIS (Worthy News) – French authorities confirmed Sunday that a radical Islamist with mental health troubles stabbed a German tourist to death and wounded two people in central Paris before being arrested.

The attack in the capital occurred near the famed Eiffel Tower during a busy weekend night while France was on high alert for terrorism amid heightened tensions due to the war between Israel and Hamas.

Prosecutor Jean-François Ricard said the alleged attacker had pledged allegiance to the Islamic State group, known for carrying out horrific terror acts.

The suspect was named by local media as Armand R, a 26-year-old French national born in France to Iranian parents.

French Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin told reporters at the scene near the River Seine that the man had shouted “Allahu Akbar” (“Allah is greatest”) before being detained.

However, “We will not give in to terrorism,” French Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne wrote on social media platform X, formerly Twitter, after the violence. French President Emmanuel Macron said he was sending his condolences to the family of the German killed in the “terrorist attack.”

GERMAN NURSE

Earlier, it was revealed that the victim killed in Saturday night’s attack was a German tourist who worked as a nurse.

France’s Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin said the murdered man was with his wife when he was attacked and fatally stabbed on Quai de Grenelle.

He stressed that “the intervention of a taxi driver” saved the wife’s life and that the suspect fled across a nearby bridge spanning the River Seine.

After crossing to the north side of the river, he reportedly attacked two more people, hitting a 66-year-old British victim in the eye with a hammer. Police then tasered the suspect.

He was arrested on suspicion of assassination – defined in French law as premeditated murder – and “attempted assassination in relation to a terrorist enterprise,” authorities said.

Video published online appeared to confirm
that the suspect was apprehended by armed police not far from where the terror attack happened.

TWO INJURED

The two people injured – a Frenchman aged around 60 and a British tourist – were treated by emergency services, with neither found to be in a life-threatening condition, officials said.

On Sunday, Health Minister Aurélien Rousseau told French media the pair are “in good health.”

Yet authorities were due to face tough questions after police revealed that the suspect was released from prison in 2020 after serving four years for planning an attack.

He was supposed to be following treatment for psychiatric problems but was apparently not adequately monitored by law enforcement and other institutions.

The violence was also due to raise anxiety across European nations that joined France in preparing for possible terror attacks.

French anti-terror prosecutors said they are now taking on the investigation.

It is always attributed to "mental health" issues and not to Islam, wonder why that is.

Maybe one has to be nuts to be a Muslim.

    • Exhortation - October 24, 2024

      Albert Finch posted a blog entry in Albert Finch Ministry,

      You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • The Simchat Torah War -- Is this a Water Breaking Moment of Revival?

      George posted a topic in Biblical Topic Videos,

      George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      George posted a topic in Study Group,

      Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2

      George posted a topic in Study Group,

      Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
