Christmas Day Mosque Desecrations in France and US

About 150 people attacked a Muslim prayer hall on Christmas Day on the French island of Corsica, ravaging the building with fire and shouting shouted “Arabs get out!” and “This is our home!” at worshipers.

The crowd initially gathered in front of the police headquarters to show support for police and firefighters wounded in the terror attacks of November 13 in Paris, which were claimed by ISIS.

French PM Manuel Valls Tweeted that the act constituted “an unacceptable desecration.”
