George W. Bush turned out to be the greatest facilitator of Islamic terror in history. He opened the door to Christians being pushed out of the Middle East. Are French Jews next?
After the murder of 12 people at the offices of the Charlie Hebdo magazine a siege at a kosher supermarket, expanded the attacks in Paris to a specifically anti-Jewish attack. Even before this latest anti-Jewish attack Jews have been leaving France (7000 last year to Israel) in fear of their lives.
Nearly 75 percent of thousands of French Jews who participated in a recent survey said they are considering emigrating. They fear the rise of Islamic-led ethnic cleansing. They fear that what is being done to Christians in the Middle East will be done to them, one terror attack at a time– in France!
A mass exodus of Christians is currently underway in the Middle East paralleling what is happening to Jews in France. Millions of Christians are being displaced from one end of the Islamic world to the other.
We are seeing the history of the Islamic world, much of which before the Islamic conquests was almost entirely Christian, replayed. This repeat was unleashed by George W. Bush. His wars are the greatest gift to radical Islam since the seventh century conquest of North Africa by Arab invaders.
The U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom said: “The flight of Christians out of the region is unprecedented and it’s increasing year by year.” In our lifetime alone “Christians might disappear altogether from Iraq, Afghanistan, and Egypt.”
Now it seems that there is no room in France for Jews either. Bluntly: right or wrong, Jews can’t see how they can survive in a country filled with Muslims bent on targeting them who have been radicalized by Bush’s wars.
Ongoing reports from the Islamic world certainly support the French Jews fears: Iraq was the earliest indicator of the fate awaiting Christians once Islamic forces were liberated from the dictators by America as we made war there.
In 2003, Iraq’s Christian population was at least one million. Today fewer than 400,000 remain—the result of an anti-Christian campaign that began with the U.S. occupation of Iraq, when countless Christian churches were bombed and countless Christians killed, including by crucifixion and beheading.
This is the world George W. Bush helped create with his war in Iraq. Bush turned out to be the greatest instigator of Islamic terror in history. He opened the door to Christians being pushed out. Are French Jews next?
To those in the grip of the radical Islamist mindset Jews are the ultimate symbol of the west and “demonic” enemy. What has been done to Christians in the Middle East is what the radical Muslims want to do to Jews in France. This goes way past isolated radicals. An Iranian state-sanctioned “mainstream” newspaper responded to the Danish cartoons affair with a competition for “the best Holocaust caricatures”, as if the most efficient way to hit back at Europe was by attacking Jews.
Paris is a war zone and that war is not only about killing cartoonists: the ultimate target is the Jews of France. Paris is now Mumbai 2008 Toulouse 2012, when Mohammad Merah killed a rabbi and three children at a Jewish school, pulling an eight-year-old girl by her hair to shoot her in the head.
Will France once again be a place where Jews will need to go into hiding or flee before they are taken to today’s equivalent of the camps?
