France flags 78,000 people as security threats on vast police database sharing information about Europe’s most dangerous residents
France’s total number is more than all other European countries put together
The data has led to questions about whether the system is being misused
German parliamentarian, Andrej Hunko, raised the alarm about the database
France has flagged more than 78,000 people as security threats in a database intended to let European police share information on the continent’s most dangerous residents.
The total is more than all other European countries put together, according to an analysis by the Associated Press.
The data has led to questions about whether the system is being misused, with different countries applying different criteria.
A German parliamentarian, Andrej Hunko, raised the alarm about the European database in a question to his country’s interior ministry.
In 2017, more than 134,000 people were flagged for the secret international checks on people considered security threats.
To put the French number in perspective, the country’s intelligence chief said late last year that 4,000 suspected extremists were being monitored as highly dangerous.

‘The increase in alerts cannot be explained by the threat of Islamist terrorism alone,’ Mr Hunko said in a statement late last month when he released the interior ministry response to his query.
‘Europol reports a four-digit number of confirmed foreign fighters, yet the increase of SIS alerts in 2017 is several times that.’
That response included a spreadsheet detailing for the first time how many discreet checks each European country had flagged up last year – more than 134,000 in all.
‘This could mean that families and contacts of these individuals are also being secretly monitored. It is also possible that the measure is being used on a large scale for combating other criminal activity,’ Mr Hunko said.
The number of French police entries ‘indicates a misuse’ of the system intended to monitor dangerous criminals, he added.
The Schengen database – which is separate to the Europol database and far more widely used – forms the backbone of European security, allowing police, judicial authorities and other law enforcement to immediately check whether a person is wanted or missing, or a car is stolen, or a firearm is legal, for example.
The database was checked five billion times in 2017 alone, according to the director of the EU-LISA agency, Krum Garkov.

What is that supposed to mean? The french are playing “tag” the terrorists are “it”?
In NZ if we say we have flagged something, it means we’ve have given up on it…Thats what I thought the headline meant and was going to comment on surrender monkey French.
I would be willing to bet ( and I never bet) that the large majority of those “flagged” are NOT mudslimes, but those who don’t like what the mudslimes stand for and they way they cry all the time.

‘… France is finished.’
Germoney (best welfare in the world, jizyah to Muslims Q.9:29) is finished.
Lame Britain is finished.
Sweden is finished.
… thanks to the coward state propaganda media, the BIGGEST enemy
the islamic army in the making! mohammad is achieving the victory!
the same is happening in the UK, Germany, Sweden, Canada, Australia and even USA! the islamic army is growing! just waiting for the right time, when their mosques give the signal!
mohammad > napoleon
mohammad > george washington
mohammad > king arthur
mohammad > william wallace
Islam will dominate
Keep talking like that my friend and you will wake up the “sleeping giant.” You need Jesus to save you from your jihad for 72 virgin myth. Convert to Christianity & live! ISIS said convert or die? Now they are dead and in hell without their 72 virgins.
Can you name 10 accomplishments by mohammad? How has he contributed to the world? How has he made the world a better place? Did mohammad die on a cross and rise again from the dead? Did he atone for the sins of the human race? I think not! All he offered was death, but Jesus offered eternal life to those who turn to Him. When Jesus returns to the world, it will be a better place.
I wonder how much the Muslims pay “Trump can’t ban islam” for his sage advice.
Money flushed down the toilet drain.
The Islamic sewer system is not working too well.
Does anyone remember the good old days when police didn’t look like they are ready for combat? This is ridiculous and they still want more MUSLIMS! They can’t possibly watch 78,000 of them and GROWING in number. I see a bloodbath coming up!

•The Sixth Phase Hussein believes that from 2016 onwards there will a period of “total confrontation.” As soon as the caliphate has been declared the “Islamic army” it will instigate the “fight between the believers and the non-believers” which has so often been predicted by Osama bin Laden.
•The Seventh Phase This final stage is described as “definitive victory.” Hussein writes that in the terrorists’ eyes, because the rest of the world will be so beaten down by the “one-and-a-half billion Muslims,” the caliphate will undoubtedly succeed. This phase should be completed by 2020, although the war shouldn’t last longer than two years. https://counterjihadreport.com/2014/11/07/exposed-obama-helped-decade-old-plan-to-create-is/
“. . . a review of a book written by Fouad Hussein, a Jordanian journalist with close access to al-Qaeda and its affiliates, including the late Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, who pioneered the videotaping of beheadings “to strike terror into the hearts” of infidels (Koran 3:151).”
Thank you. It is all very scary and makes me be a “bitter clinger” more and more everyday….Bible and Gun…don’t leave home without them.

And of course they’re not going to do anything about it. Just like the UK which has 23,000 known radicals. Well at least when the muslims slaughter everyone the media/politicians will have peace of mind knowing they went to their graves never being Islamophobic racist bigots. lol
And all of them will wind up in HELL!
You too Trump can’t ban Islam.
Just imagine the fun you will have with them.

78,000, eh? At the current rate, France should be done investigating them in about……437 years. Give or take 20, depending on police force sizes, etc.
Oh so France has a list, well I’ll wager the jihadists are quaking in their flip flops…

One can only surmise that those who pushed for immigration of Muslims into France and Europe intended to overwhelm the police and destroy Christian Western Civilization.
If you ever visit France, it is better to avoid certain immigrant and muslim areas. Finnish TV news presenter Tommy Fränti

Oh, so they do actually do some work then. But howcome they always miss the killers, even after being alerted by other agencies, that a killer is on the loose and looking for prey? And what about the 400 000 they’ve lost complete track of, running around in the Schengen zone? What a load of merde.

I’m taking a poll of Geller site readers:
How many of you who were planning a bucket list trip to France, or Germany, or Sweden, or the UK…or any other European country?
How many of you cancelled that trip?
How many of you ever imagine that in your life time it will be safe to ever tour abroad?
After the Muslim Marxist Obama was elected -TWICE- I gave up my dreams of seeing the UK, Italy, France, Spain, and my generational beginnings in Belgium. Now I’ll be lucky if I dare travel to D.C. to see the Capitol, I will never return to New Orleans again because they tore down all the historical sites….nothing left there to see except drunk and half naked people….I can see that down town here.
Even though I live 5 hours from the California state line I cannot imagine ever crossing that border again- yet I worked in the film and TV industry there from 1978-1981…..it’s not the same state it was back then.
I’m originally from Memphis, but I’ve pretty much given up traveling above the Mason Dixon Line….and below it isn’t looking so good either…..
My only hope of traveling again in America is 8 years of Trump as President…..and zero years of RINOs like Ryan and McConnell…..and Dimms Pukelosi and Chucked up Smucker.

Both Islam AND Globalist Liberalism are Fascist, totalitarian, and meant to subject all people to ONE NEW WORLD ORDER OF ONE DICTATOR, ONE “GOD”, ONE KING, ONE DEAR LEADER…..or whatever you want to call them.
There is no difference in the death cult of Islam and the Globalists here in America…..
