France: Far-Left presidential candidate blames “discrimination” and the French state for jihad attack

Apr 21, 2017 1:56 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

Far-left presidential candidate Philippe Poutou is blaming French politics for the deadly attack on Paris’ Champs-Elysees…..Poutou, a car-factory worker backed by anti-capitalist party NPA, says the roots of extremist attacks are neither in mosques nor migrant camps.

In Poutou’s mind, the roots of jihad attacks can be found in Western prejudice, discrimination and exploitation. He blames the victim for jihad attacks, ignoring 1,400 years of bloody conquest and brutality committed in the name of Islam, and also ignoring the captured internal Muslim Brotherhood document that calls upon Muslims to infiltrate Western civilization and sabotage it, in order to bring it to its knees.

The more the absurd statements of Leftists such as Poutou are taken seriously and left unchallenged, the more Westerners will be worn down and weakened in the face of their worst enemies. And so it was a good sign that French Prime Minister Manuel Valls was “cursed and jeered in public” when he said that “times have changed and we should learn to live with terrorism.” Politicians and leaders of this ilk need to be called out and ridiculed for such statements. Better yet, they need to be voted out, for the survival of the free world.

“Far-Left Presidential Candidate Blames ‘Discrimination’ and ‘State’ for Islamist Paris Attack”, Associated Press, April 21, 2017 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

PARIS (AP) — Far-left presidential candidate Philippe Poutou is blaming French politics for the deadly attack on Paris’ Champs-Elysees, in which a police officer and the attacker were killed.

Poutou, a car-factory worker backed by anti-capitalist party NPA, says the roots of extremist attacks are neither in mosques nor migrant camps. He said: “They are in the situation of external and internal war maintained by the state, and in the injustice and discriminations maintained in the suburbs.”

Poutou says the French state has to share the blame for attacks because it discriminates against people living in impoverished suburbs because of “their skin color or origins,” takes military action in Africa and the Middle East and sells arms to dictatorships.

    In other words, “Western Values” are to blame.

    I wonder how much help this useful idiot is getting from Putin and maybe even Soros?

    Not only that, he also suggested disarming policemen moments AFTER he learned of the Champs-Elysées attack.
    That has to be heard to be believed.

    Please understand: The mission of leftists is to prepare the way for Islam. Together they constitute a counter religious movement analogous to John the Baptist as a necessary forerunner for and coworker with Christ.

        I am just proposing an analogy or anti imitation in order to better understand the purpose and nature of this unholy alliance we see of the Left with Islam: it is evil and demonic and the unifying spirit is a profound, if latent, anti-Christian hate for the Jewish people. (Hate for the Jewish people is fundamentally anti-Christian in spite of what Church Fathers and Church history might espouse.)

          You really need to explain…Marxism has always been anti-Christian. Marxists forever have been against White Anglo Saxon Protestants in particular because they believe Protestant Calvinists started capitalism and freedom. Russian Communists and their friends the European socialists–atheists all- are doing everything they can to get rid of Protestants, as they are their enemy. And, many Jews are Communists and atheists and are working to get rid of Christians as well. And, there are Marxists inside the Christian churches going at it from that direction. I’m paraphrasing here: “The March of Communism,” general editor: Ian Beckett, states that the Russians have effectively convinced the tyrants in the M.E. to chose communism over Western European capitalism. Muslims have taken communism and married it with Islam and have their own version of anti-Western political philosophy. Socialists in all the Western nations are for giving people two choices: secular humanism or Islam. You can be a perverted, decadent socialist or have a stone age religion-take your pick.

    MISTER POUTOU, The Umayyad invasion of Gaul followed the Umayyad conquest of Spain spearheaded by the North African commander Tariq ibn Ziyad in 711AD (13 centuries ago!)

    So, where does the MODERN hatred of FRANCE come from?
    Answer: from ISLAMIC TEXTS!
    Al Walaa wal Baraa is the best supported doctrine in Islam. Al Walaa wal Baraa is the doctrine of Islamic apartheid.
    Koran 28:86 “Do not support the kafireen in any way.”
    Koran 5.51 “He amongst you who turns to them (for friendship) is of them.”
    Koran 40:35 “They who dispute the signs (verses) of Allah without authority having reached them are greatly hated by Allah and the believers.” (Note: not just “hated”, but “greatly hated”.)
    Koran 48:29: “Muhammad is God’s apostle. Those who follow him are violent to the unbelievers, but compassionate to one another.”
    Koran 4: 101 “The kuffar are for you a clear enemy.”
    Koran 8:60 “Terrorize the enemy of Allah and your enemy”
    Koran 60:4 “We have rejected you, and there has arisen between us and you enmity and hatred, until you believe and worship Allaah alone.”
    Koran 3: 118 “O you who believe! Do not take into your intimacy those outside your ranks. They will not fail to corrupt you.”
    Koran 28.17 “O my Lord! For that Thou hast bestowed Thy Grace on me, never shall I be a help to those who sin.” (kufaar)
    Examples of al-Baraa from historic figures:
    -from Ahmad Sirhindi (1564-1624): “The honour of Islam lies in insulting kufr and kafirs. One who respects the kafirs dishonours the Muslims… The real purpose of levying jiziya on them is to humiliate them to such an extent that they may not be able to dress well and to live in grandeur. They should constantly remain terrified and trembling. It is intended to hold them under contempt and to uphold the honour and might of Islam.”
    -from ibn Taymiyya, “Book of Emaan”: “… true believers show animosity and hatred towards disbelievers and never support them.”
    -from Umar Sulayman ‘Abd-Allaah al-Ashqar, “Belief in Allah”: “The Muslim should regard the Kuffaar as enemies and hate them because of their kufr, just as he hates their kufr (disbelief) itself.”
    -from “The Islaamic Concept of al-Walaa’ wal-Baraa’” by Khalid El-Gharib: …“[iv] to show enmity to those who show enmity to Allaah and His Messenger” (Note: Muslims are to visibly demonstrate their enmity or towards the kufaar)
    -from a lecture given by Sheikh Abdullah al-Faisal (H.A.): “The implication of al-Baraa is that one HATES for the sake of Allah (SWT)…Al-Baraa means to recognize who your enemies are and to HATE them and EXTERMINATE them in their Endeavour to get rid of your Deen, al-Islam…Al-Baraa is to HATE the people who propagate Baatil (falsehood)—the Muslim should HATE them and (at least desire to) KILL them when the time comes.”

    blame the victim…… blame those who were murdered or severely damaged by jihadist attacks !! How can a leading politician as Macron in France claim: “France should be ready to learn to live with terror attacks..??!! Amazing …. a shame Europe: wake up.

    Then the non Europeans who suffer too in the hand of the muslims must also blame France (or western people). What a moron this Poutou guy.

      Yes–Muslims are threatening Infidels all over the world–not just in France.

    Interesting. – Does the French government say that he his misusing the attack for his personal political Goals? That is what they say about M. Le Pen when she referred to the attack.

    The French have their choice tomorrow. In Rotterdam they can see what will happen if they vote for established politics, if they have not yet understood this by their own experience over the last few years.

    Philippe Poutou needsto read the Qur’anand the Hadith as well as the Sunna of Mohammed. He can do what he likes but as long as Muslims are reading their texts, the Jihads will keep coming.

  12. Michael Copeland says

    Apr 22, 2017 at 3:42 am

    Poutou displays his own ignorance and negligence.
    He is ignorant of Islam’s teachings and negligent for not informing himself.

    Philippe Poutou is a self-loathing loon!
    He criticizes people for fearing a very real threat to their way of life.

    It’s beyond me how any of these traitorous clowns can still not be awake to the fundamentally barbaric, murderous nature of Islam. No, idiots, it’s not anything we do or have ever done to Muslims, it’s the hate-filled, vile content of the loathsome religion since its creation by the scumbag Muhammad, their idea of the perfect man. Anyway, as far as I’m concerned, go Marine Le Pen, I hope she smashes them in the election. Apparently, it’s unlikely from commentary I’ve seen. She can then start cleaning out the swamp in France, rather than letting things drift and get worse. Her tough policies would be somewhat like Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia. Tough on Islam. It would be a cause for some hope. I wish all leaders everywhere would wake up to Islam’s true nature. t’s about bloody time.
