Elections in France and Palestine, the link

Snap legislative elections will take place in France on the upcoming 30th of June and 7th of July in an environment marked by the rise of the far right. Western media have mentioned the "anti-Semitic" positions of both the far-right National Rally and ... the New Popular Front of the left! This is what is called a conflation, which aims to create confusion. It is worth remembering that the anti-Jewish policy of the fascist far-right was in effect during the 1939-45 war with France deporting 70,000 French Jews to German concentration camps. In contrast, the Popular Front of 1936 - led by a French Jew - aimed primarily to defend France against the rise of fascism. That was the goal in 1936, and it is also the goal in 2024. The truth is that the far right represented by the National Rally is fundamentally anti-Jewish, while the New Popular Front of the left opposes the policies of Israel responsible for genocide against the Palestinian people, which is not the same thing at all....

"Hamas cannot be destroyed" because "it is an idea." !!

No, this is not a statement from Hamas, but from Daniel Hagari, the spokesperson for the Zionist army! It took 37,000 deaths and the destruction of an entire territory for the Zionist army to recognize this!  Why did it take 37,000 deaths to acknowledge this? Because Israel is an occupying army, and colonial occupying armies do not understand that a colonized people can resist.  Why also this "idea"? For a simple reason: Palestine was colonized and its people had only one choice, which was to resist the occupier.  Similarly, the Zionist entity reveals itself for what it is: Europeans who came to colonize a territory, as has been done for centuries. The European settlers who created the Zionist movement are Ashkenazi Jews who have no connection to Palestine. They are Russians, Poles, Belarusians, Austrians, Romanians, etc. The Zionist movement is a racist movement, just like Nazism: it presumes a "pure race."  The Jewish religion was born in Palestine, and people con...

Israel on the black list

The United Nations has added Israel to the "blacklist" of countries that have committed "grave violations" against children in conflict zones during the year 2023.  It should be noted that a case is ongoing before the International Court of Justice for accusations of genocide, initiated by South Africa with the active support of 55 countries.  It should also be noted that the prosecutor of the International Criminal Court has requested arrest warrants against the Israeli Prime Minister and the Minister of Defense.  These actions, along with others, reflect the progressive isolation of Israel and its condemnation by the international community.

Brief History of Palestine

 As the suffering – the genocide – of the Palestinian people unfolds before us, it may be useful to review the events that shed light on what is happening now. Following the war between imperial powers from 1914 to 1918, the British and the French Empires divided the territories of the Ottoman Empire. The Syrian province was then split into two: France took the north, and England took the south, including Palestine. England later "ceded" part of the territory east of the Jordan River to create Jordan. During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the Zionist movement gained strength with the aim of finding a territory for the "Jewish people" and considered Argentina in South America, Uganda in Africa, and Palestine in the Middle East. It was England that decided to "cede" part of Palestine to the Zionist movement (Balfour Declaration). While the Palestinians, who were not consulted, refused the colonization of their country and began to resist (Amin al-Hu...

The accusation strengthens at the International Court of Justice

Following the latest vote by the UN General Assembly - which expanded the prerogatives of the State of Palestine - the latter supported South Africa in its action before the International Court of Justice, against Israel suspected of committing a genocide against the Palestinian people.  To date, the number of countries standing alongside South Africa stands at 49 - including 20 in Africa, 18 in Asia, 7 in Central and South America and 4 in Europe (Turkey, Albania, Ireland and Belgium) - as well as the Organization of Islamic Cooperation. Germany was the only country in the world to support Israel before the ICJ. It's worth noting that the movement in support of the Palestinian people comes essentially from formerly colonized countries which see in the current massacre essentially a question of decolonization which can only be resolved by the exercise of the right to self-determination of the Palestinian people.
