Amazing No Coverage of Jewish Community Center Attack Here

by Dick Hard Tuesday, Aug. 24, 2004 at 1:38 PM

When Jew Haters burn down a Jewish Community Center It Is Not News to Indy Media, They Sweep It Under the Rug like the Fascists and Fascist Appeasers they are

regarding another anti-Jewish attack in France that Indy Media IGNORED

 Under Bernadette's petticoats • Dans les Jupons de Bernadette

Going back on Tuesday's post, French readers and some relatives just told me more about the (last to date) "Death to the Jews" feast in The Country That Is Not Anti-Semite®. (See also here but particularly Merde in France's links here).

We already know that it happened in the Burgundian town of Mâcon, which - besides the nature of the event itself - really sets me to ballistic mode, for many reasons I will not develop here.

The rest will do nothing to improve my mood.

Let's get it straight:

5 000 French - presumably of all ages and descents - attending the concert, including the wife of the President and some bloke who, supposedly, shouldn't be easily intimidated but who probably spent too much time in Bernadette's petticoats lately.

No offense intended. I'm just trying to find explanations. After all, the guy is a world heavyweight judo champion.

30 young French - of North African descent - (presented here as a "small group of very young teenagers") standing in front of the stage, yelling "death to the Jews" and threatening a 25 years old Israeli singer (She holds in fact, the American, Israeli and French nationality. Fate dealt her two good cards. Not bad.) who, paradoxically, found herself alone and isolated among 5 000 French, including the wife of the President and some bloke who supposedly shouldn't be easily intimidated. Particularly by "very young teenagers".

Nobody dared to stop the very young scum and teach them a thing or two before they become older scum.

TV crews? Yeah, there were TV crews. They even took the decision to air the show on their TV channels later. They just took great care to shunt the sound and have a Voice Over TV Twat gossiping during the part featuring 30 very young scum tossing racial insults and threats at a lone 25 years old girl, in front of 4970 French, the President's wife and the heavyweight bloke under her petticoats at a public manifestation.

Where did you hear about anti-Semitism in this country again?

Cops? Yeah, surely there were some at some point. Or not. Or probably too late. Or too busy billing excessive speed criminals drivers. Some even says that nobody called them, in order not to 'aggravate' the situation and 'upset' those 30 poor young French. They happened to be of North African descent, and surely are not to be upset by the police, particularly when they are tossing racial insults and threats at a lone 25 years old girl in front of the First Lady and quite a bunch of her serfs fellow citizens. I mean, come on, if you start arresting them just for collectively insulting and threatening girls, then you'll have to arrest them when they collectively rape them. That would upset them even more, for sure.

So the Cops asked the TV crew to have a look at the tapes, and will watch the crime on TV. Another beer Officer? Popcorns? See there on the left? Well tha's a bad guy I can tell ya. Wot's that Officer? Oh no, no, no, Officer you can't say that. The proper term is "a youngster issued from The Immigration". Have another beer.

But what about decent people? Courageous fellows standing for Liberté, Egalité or even that friggin' meaningless Fraternité? Principled French ready to stand against the enemies of BlahBlahberté, BlahBlahBlahgalité as well as BlahBlahBlahBlahternité, even when the enemy is a dreadful "small group of very young teenagers"?

If there were any among this crowd of 5 000, surely they will show on the tape. Let's just let the police do her job, will ya?

Well, on second thought, let's not. Instead, let's ponder sadly on the fact that, thank in no small part to the cast of kleptocrats to which Bernadette belongs, any French of any origin, standing against the racism of some French of a certain origin (being PC is so funny, dontcha think?), in the name of basic moral principles and decency, is certain to be eaten alive by the various variably anti-racist NGOs (such as the despicable MRAP - Google that by yourself, I don't link to scum.) and the French Justice itself. Because in that case, they would be considered more racists than the other racists.

We're civilized people. There are laws against a certain racism in this country, you know.

The cops, at least, managed to upset arrest 5 of the very young teenagers. I guess that is a consolation, particularly for Bernadette who was "really saddened" as you may recall.

Meanwhile, the various political and administrative 'after-the-facts cheap talk' goes on:

« France is not an anti-Semite country »

Well, of course not, you silly person you. The official position is that even the Jews die one day or another.

So yelling "Death to the Jews" is not anti-Semitism. Just stating facts.

« We will not tolerate any incident of this kind »

Until, of course, we are actually confronted with the next incident of this kind, while having a 5000/30 numerical superiority ratio and a world heavyweight judo champ on our side. In that case, we'll just shut up and wait until the 30 racist kids are gone before claiming again "Ooeee ooeel not tolerate any incident of zis kind."

« We request an all-out severity against this type of behavior, which is punished by law and is incompatible with the founding principles of the French society. »

Word for word: empty blathering and wishful thinking are the founding principles of the French society.

«  Honey, I peed in my pants at that concert and need a change of my underwear »

Okay, I made up this one.

Meanwhile, the Mayor of Mâcon aggravates cowardice with offence when, "speaking in the name of all the people of Mâcon" - minus at least 30 of them - he offers his support to the singer (A bit late my lad) and invites her to... Come again (no, really, the lad is serious. That's the offense actually.)

Meanwhile, Shirel the assaulted singer demonstrates that she's not only absolutely gorgeous but also particularly insightful:

« Even if France is the country of Human Rights, it's never been the country that really lives up to that sort of things. »

And that pretty sums up the whole thing.

Shut the fuck up, dickless.

This is open publishing, and if I am not mistaken, I just read about it...on Indymedia....and I have not heard about it anywhere else. So nothing is being "swept under the rug" by "Jew Haters" you paranoid ass...

it happened in france

by more rational Tuesday, Aug. 24, 2004 at 2:37 PM

It happened in france. There could be an explosion at a factory with a hundred dead, but if it happens in france, I probably won't hear about it.

Anyway, I thought you were talking about the Buford Furrow shooting in Van Nuys. That dude who got murdered, Joseph Ileto, has good family -- they are always bringing his case up and making sure it's not forgotten.

It's also a good reminder for me: neo-nazis usually have mental problems or "issues" that mess with their heads. The direct their rage at minorities and Jews.

Neo-Nazis can go to hell

by defender Tuesday, Aug. 24, 2004 at 9:33 PM

Look... there may be some idiots who hate Jewish people who on occasion visit the Indymedia network, but such retards do not make up the majority who regularly post here. The supporters of the Indymedia network STAND AGAINST racial hatred, sexism, fascists, and all forms of discrimination... including anti-Semitism.

There isn't a single person on these boards (save the rightist trolls who sometimes post), that would support in any way the neo-nazi thugs in France and their attacks upon the Jewish people. We all stand in firm opposition to that type of reactionary behavior. It should also be noted that Moslems have also been attacked by the fascist right in France... and we ALSO stand against that as well!

dick soft on real anti-semitism

by more semitic than thou... Wednesday, Aug. 25, 2004 at 11:11 AM

Is Melrose Larry or Max or some other retard responsible for the paranoid Jew posts that either try to stigmatize Islamists as fascists or make the IMC go boo-hoo over France's racial problems?

The earlier post about Nazis and Islamists and homosexuals was so pathetic I had to blast that one out of the park. Dick soft or whoever this spook is needs to get a clue and realize that jews and arabs are both semitic people. That's why the Israeli army is just as retarded, if not worse, than the suicide bombers. And then some Israeli's are brainwashed by white supremacy because they've let the real fascists take over their country. They worry about the darker, arab people whose land they took away and one day they'll wake up and find a christian fascist regime has taken over their country and we'll be in the "Dark Ages" again..oh the irony. Huh, Sharon is already in power, and he patronizes the christian right here in america, well gee..what does that mean?

...and yet this moron obsesses on "Islamic fascism" when there is no such thing, nor precedent. Saddam was a secular dictator on the U.S. payroll ya' morons.

Read some Leni Brenner and get a clue..

Arabs Are Not Jews And Anti Semitism Means Jew Hating

by Stop Trying to Re-invent English Language Monday, Aug. 30, 2004 at 12:21 AM

This canard was begun by some Egyptian Nazi propagandists who said "how can we be anti-Semites, when we are semites ourselves?" and a lot of fascists and fascist sympathizers and various Jew haters subsequently picked up on it so you hear it repeated ad nauseum, especially on Indy Media boards. Well the definition of anti-Semitism is Jew hating. That is the common parlance in English. Maybe if you speak Arabic or some other tongue you can come up with your own definitions. But IN ENGLISH you know damn well what it means. It has been the term of choice since the late 1800s or early 1900s. It was developed in reference to pogroms against Jews in Russia (where they were the only "semites" living in Poland, Lithuania, Estonia, etc) and it also referred to anti Jewish hatred in France at the time of the Dreyfuss trial. As for the Arabs, many have been active Jew haters for centuries. it is a flat out lie and distortion to say that the creation of Israel is what generated hatred of Jews in the Muslim and Arab world. Jews have been second class citizens throughout the Muslim world since the time of Mohammed (read the Koran on how Mohammed feels about the Jews circa 700 AD) and Jews have been "dhimmis" (roughly translated as untermencshcen) in the Moslem world ever since. So CUT THE CRAP YOU FUCKING LIARS AND BIGOTS.

Nice try, but no cigar. What, are you the defintion police? Nobody appointed you to be the guardian of the English language.

The Arabs are Semites. If you are against Arabs, you are anti-Semite. It's really just that simple.

by more rational Monday, Aug. 30, 2004 at 6:25 PM

Yeah, it's like Spaniards getting classified as "Hispanic" when it really means Latin Americans in general, and usually people of Mexican descent in particular, as well as Americans whose families were Mexicans before the borders changed.

Everyone knows that anti-semitism means anti-jewish. Anti-arab means anti-arab. It's all racism.
