Questions Are Not Speculations

The Western world watched in shock and horror as the Notre Dame Cathedral was engulfed in flames. The scene was even more shocking as the esteemed steeple of that great architectural masterpiece fell when it went up like a book of matches. Meanwhile, French officials are declaring this to be an accident. While questions linger, the media is telling the public not to speculate. Yet, is that not what they did for two years with “Russia”?



We must stand for the truth.

The mystery of Notre Dame is one that is currently on everyone’s radar. What we are not hearing are the questions that every journalist should be asking. Journalism 101 is clear that in order to get what one needs from an informational standpoint, there are questions that must be asked. Primarily, “who?” “what?” “where?” “when?” and “why?”

Once the facts are compiled, then the journalist can piece together the puzzle and try and get to the bottom of the issue. The ironic thing here is that much of what the mainstream media has done is speculate. That is until something inconvenient is being speculated. Then speculation becomes forbidden. Just ask Fox News’ Shepard Smith, who spoke with a French official regarding the issue.



Journalists Should Report Facts, Not Speculation

Speculations are not allowed in media circles. However, rewind to 2016 when then-candidate Donald Trump was under fire for the possibility of colluding with Russia to meddle in the election. The media has based everything on speculation for several years. At least where President Trump was concerned. No hard evidence was ever presented. However, the mainstream media followed rabbit trails and weird conspiratorial points.

A respectable journalist should never take part in pure speculation. Yet, the mainstream media embraced the Russia Collusion speculation. The insanity continues even now, as the Mueller report is on the verge of public release. For example, watch Rachel Maddow. Her rhetoric shows the radical and unhealthy obsession that the cable news hostess has with the now verifiably fake collusion speculation. The Intercept conducted a survey of Rachel Maddow’s show and Russia-focused segments accounted for 53% of her show. That is just on MSNBC!

The speculation has spilled over into conservative news channels. For example, there is the aforementioned Shepard Smith of Fox News. Smith also makes irresponsible Russia collusion speculation. Some “journalists” are doubling down on the Russia speculation, while others are crying about the nothingburger.



What is being asked about Notre Dame?﻿

As we take a look into the real world, many are asking the pertinent questions. Who did it? The French claim that it was an accident due to faulty electrical equipment. Others in the alternative media sources are not discounting a very real possibility that Islamic extremists have set fire to the beloved cathedral. The evidence for this connection? Many have posted pictures on social media of the burning church along with the apparent glee expressed by Muslim migrants in Paris.

Moreover, various Islamic Facebook groups have reacted to social media posts of Notre Dame with the “happy face” emoji. An Islamic Facebook group called AJ+ posted a live feed of the Notre Dame on fire. Many of their subscribers expressed happiness. However, Muslim migrants are not the only ones celebrating. There are liberal blue check mark accounts on Twitter that are also dancing with glee. Again, the possibility of Islamic terrorism being involved is just that, a possibility.

However, over the last month, 800 plus churches in France have been targets of extreme vandalism. Effigies of the Virgin Mary and Christ have been decapitated by foul play, mostly from Muslims who walk in. Some have been shown urinating in the church halls and vandalizing church property. Is Notre Dame another victim of Muslim aggression? We do not have the evidence to prove it, but it is a fair question to ask. Especially considering what we have seen in the past.

Stand for the Truth

Again, these are only questions. However, they are important questions worth asking. The mainstream media may try to discredit these questions as conspiratorial or speculations. Let us remember that they have done nothing but speculate for the last two years. It shows again the blatant hypocrisy of these media outlets. In the mainstream media’s eyes, the rules exist for us and not them. This seems to be their mantra and nobody is calling them out. That is the truly sad part.



As of right now, the Notre Dame fire is currently being investigated. Reports are currently being compiled. Thus far, the only confirmed possible reason is faulty electrical items. However, we must continue to ask questions. We must continue to push for information and stand for the truth. If we do not do it, who will?
