Michel Houellebecq: "A civilization which legalizes euthanasia loses all rights to respect"
If one wants to give a definition of what I call Palestinianism, one could write that it is the fact of blindly espousing the Palestinian narrative without any critical spirit. Before explaining that this Palestinianism is only an avatar of Islamo-leftism, I would like to say that one can perfectly be sensitive to the Arab-Palestinian cause without being Palestinian. I have always written that the Arabs of Palestine had a good record which they lamentably sacrificed on the altar of an Islamo-nationalism closed to any territorial compromise. All the governments of the Israeli left, from Peres to Barak, will have offered to the representatives of the Arabs of Palestine the control of almost all the disputed territories, including part of East Jerusalem, in vain.
The end of a state for the Jewish people on the smallest part of a territory that they consider to be theirs for reasons not only historical but also religious, interests them much more than the creation of an umpteenth Arab state on a part. territory coveted by two peoples with competing rights.
This lamentation of the absence of a partner for a final peace which requires two certainly does not make me forget the mediocrity of a large part of the Israeli political personnel, recruited by a criminogenic fully proportional electoral system.
But even the most enlightened Israeli politician is unable to remedy an Arab-Palestinian irredentism fascinated by terrorism, not exempt from anti-Semitism, which, precisely, the Palestinians refuse, through blind ideology, to face it. .
The Islamo-leftism that presides over Palestinianism is not directly anti-Semitism, as some of my friends write.
But he is indifferent to it.

In the last segment, for example, Palestinianism shows an absence of critical thinking towards the fundamentally anti-Semitic movement that emerged from the Muslim Brotherhood Hamas, which sends missiles at Israeli civilians, while it watches the state. democratic Israeli with limitless severity. For the first indulgence and maximum compassion, for the second, hatred and indifference to its inhabitants.
I now come to the ideological explanation of a phenomenon that I associate with this crazy irrationality of the present times that I describe each week in these columns. The Islamo-leftism that presides over Palestinianism is not directly anti-Semitism, as some of my friends write. But he is indifferent to it. He is equally indifferent to the fact that his lack of critical thinking about Palestinian abuses results in the deaths of Jews not only in the state they founded but also in France. In reality, it should be understood that in the Islamogauchist's unconscious, the most fanatic of Palestinians is lovable because he embodies otherness and the detestable Israeli Jew because he defends the borders of a Western state.
With the help of this explanation grid, we can understand that those in France who take without recounting at face value the accusations of a family of delinquents rather than the French police whom they accuse of systemic racist, are very exactly the Even who see no objection to Hamas bombing the Israeli populations but consider it a criminal infamy the obligation to respond to it by targeting terrorists but at the risk of hitting civilians deliberately used as shields. I soon see the creation of a "
Palestine Lives Matter
" which will have exactly the same oblique prism as the
Black
and will be just as lenient towards virulent anti-Semitism.
On the media level, by capillarity, Palestinianism benefits from a firepower identical to its Islamo-leftist ideological matrix.
Gilles-William Goldnadel
It is therefore in this ideological framework, which is hardly characterized by its finesse, that in France, a decaying PCF and a declining rebellious France politically embody this Palestinian Islamo-leftism as much out of deadly ideological passion as out of vital electoral necessity. Thus the needy Mélenchon did not hesitate to support Jeremy Corbyn, today in the purgatory of
Labor
because of anti-Semitism. During the period, it was the youth leader of rebellious France, David Guiraud, who did not hesitate on Twitter to suggest that young Jews were dancing for joy at the sight of the Al Aksa mosque on fire. It was in fact only two trees in flames ... Although I had denounced this
fake
quite infectious six days ago and that the very serious Samira Al Gadir, tracker of lies on TF1, followed in my footsteps on Saturday at 8 p.m., our arsonist from the suburbs has not given up his dangerous fire. However, since Mohamed Merah, the Islamist anti-Israel dangerousness for French Jewish children is not idle speculation.
Of course, in the media, by capillarity, Palestinianism benefits from a firepower identical to its Islamo-leftist ideological matrix. The same newspapers developing the theme of a racist French police force, have logically embraced the tendency of infinite severity for one and limitless indulgence for the other. I wouldn't have enough of a book to list the examples of this Pavlovian posture, that is to say now more reflex than thoughtful, contained in recent days in a certain French press or public service broadcasting. Thus, to take the most baroque example, Le Monde (which officially supported Corbyn against Johnson) seriously criticized the Israeli army for having perhaps announced to the press,by ruse of war, an infantry penetration into Gaza. I had not understood that the announcement of a false landing by Churchill and Eisenhower amounted to a war crime.
In a related vein, the evening daily did not hear the "
Death to Israel!"
"And"
the Jews stink
»Hears Saturday in the demonstrations in Paris or Toulouse. Nor has this ordinarily vigilant anti-racist watchman seen the anti-Semitic exactions observed in the German streets in the midst of Erdogan's portraits. Even the very left-wing Arte Journal devoted a subject to it on Saturday evening. But I think I said that this ideology is deaf and blind to anti-Semitism when it necessarily comes from the Bien camp, the Palestinian camp. In the sequence to come, we must expect that leftist-Islamist Palestinianism in media majesty will instrumentalize (to use the verb it loves towards its adversaries) the suffering of the Palestinian civilian population - especially children. - used cynically by a Hamas that this press obstinately refuses to call "terrorist",yet recognized as such by all democratic countries, including France.
In a way, Hamas is more powerful by the deaths of its children than by the deaths it causes. It is therefore sad to recall the bitter words of Golda Meir: “
We can forgive the Arabs of Palestine for killing our children, but we cannot forgive them for making us kill their children. We will only have peace when they love their children more than they hate us
