French FM Ayrault says the peace conference being planned by France is important as it can help stop the advance of the Islamic State terror group in the region.It is often difficult to know where the anti-Semitic anti-Zionism ends and the stupidity begins.
“France has no vested interest, but is deeply convinced that if we don’t want to let the ideas of the Islamic State group prosper in this region, we must do something,” Ayrault tells reporters.
The French represent around 66 million people, whereas the Jews of Israel represent about one-tenth that number. But I certainly applaud the healthy inclination of French Jews to get the hell out of that country.
I recommend the US, Australia, or Israel.
I do not know what the French obsession is, but I would very much prefer it if they would leave the Jewish people alone.
The European and American peace processes have nothing to do with peace, if history is any guide, which I clearly think that it is.
They don't care about Jewish lives and they most certainly do not care about Israeli Arab lives.
However, their politicians seem very much to care about a form of politics that will see more of us dead.
When the EU and France and Barack Obama continue to seek an imposition upon Israel, without requesting any meaningful concessions from the Arabs, it means more blood.
This is the way that I have described it in recent years:
1) The US and the EU demand negotiations between Israel and the Palestinian Authority.Y'know, my father used to use the expression, "I wouldn't trust that guy as far as I could throw him."
2) The parties agree to talk and then the PA, the US, and the EU demand various concessions from Israel for the great privilege of sitting down with the PA's foremost undertaker.
3) Israel fails to meet all the concessions, thus causing the PA to disdain negotiations, which they never had any intention of concluding to begin with.
4) The PA and the EU and the Obama administration place the blame for failure at Jewish feet.
5) The EU and various European countries announce additional sanctions, thereby essentially joining the anti-Semitic anti-Zionist BDS movement.
6) Jihadis seek to murder Jews.
I think that you get his point.
The Europeans, and the French most particularly, need to stay the hell out of Jewish lives because they are going to try to shove this stuff down our throat until we choke to death on it.
And, needless to say, the EU and Obama are still trying to sell this notion that if only the Jews in Israel would simply give in to their tormentors there would be peace in the world.
If only .02 percent of the world population would comply with the requirements of the Arabs and the EU and the UN and Obama then all would be well.
Netanyahu is correct to tell them to drop dead, but if Israel ends up complying with Euro demands we will see more dead Jews and more dead Arabs.
Thank G-d I live in California.
Funny how the only functioning country in the old Fertile Crescent is the illegitimate Zionist entity. Most other internationally recognized states in the area can't seem to manage to actually exist. No one questions their legitimacy though.
ReplyDeleteAs far as peace processes go, we've had two insanely successful ones back in in the 1940s: one in Europe, another in the Pacific.
Israel should start with Hamas.
DeleteSo let me get this straight.
ReplyDeleteIslamic State is Israel's fault.
Of course. It all makes sense now.
I'm just trying to think of the last time the French did something useful in the world.
ReplyDeleteCoq au Vin?

Wine.
DeleteSure, it's no better than the stuff that we make in the North Bay, but still... wine.
Islam has seen the Christian West as an enemy for 1400 years, and the French, in the european tradition of scapegoating the Jews, wants to believe that all it has to do is dump the Jews. The jihadis have a rational plan and the Europeans have an irrational response to the threat jihad represents. The French are clearly insane.
ReplyDeleteThe French handed over Jews to the Nazis, and it didn't stop the Nazis. It took a resistance to do that. Today, Israel is the resistance.
OT
ReplyDeleteMike, I notice that after I publish a comment the time zone box at the right goes empty.
Oh, sure, now the time zone box!

I've noticed the same thing, but it is low on my priority list.
All you have to do is close out the blog and restart it and it will pop back in, but, yeah, it's a flaw that I have noticed, as well.
It's typically very hard to understand the byzantine logic of French policy. It's often very obscure. They are a country that sees itself as independent from the west in many ways - on their own and somehow above the fray. Hence their withdrawal from NATO for years and years and the creation of their own nuclear weapons program. Moreover France likes to punch above their weight on the world's stage and the tool they use to do that is the UN. The UN is a cornerstone of French policy because it gives them operational freedom to make all sorts of declarations and policies which it can then safely ignore when it suits them. Then you have to examine the pragmatic aspects of why. France, like the UK wants to sell stuff to the Arab and Persian world. And they have lots of things to sell them in the form of technology and weapons and financial services. The French also want and want to maintain a strong economic presence in parts of the world that are either majority Muslim or have a large Muslim minority - such as in North and West Africa and the Sahel. and last but not least it's important to understand that France really only cares about France.
