Remarkable (para-)phrase attributed to French examining magistrate Marc Trévidic :
Declaring people terrorists–who are not–so they don’t become it.
This is to become the basis for new French “anti-terror” legislation.
I couldn’t find the original (French) quote, but a German translation of it.
Es gibt Leute, die man als Terroristen kennzeichnet, damit sie es nicht werden.
Which translates into something like
There’re people who get branded terrorists so they don’t become it.
