Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

France finally admits: Elderly Jewish woman thrown off balcony by Muslim neighbor was anti-Semitic murder

Mar 1, 2018 6:57 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Orthodox Jew Sarah Halimi, 65, was beaten to death by her Franco-Malian neighbour, 27-year-old Kobili Traoré, in April 2017. Neighbours said they heard Traoré shout “Allahu akbar”, Arabic for “God is Great”, before throwing Halimi’s body off a balcony.

Yet France continued to cover up the stark motive of Islamic antisemitism. This sparked “global fury” according to the article below, which is an exaggeration, given that there is no “global fury” even regarding the countless and ubiquitous abuses committed in the name of Islam.

Just days ago, acid was placed in a Jewish baby’s stroller, severely burning the infant, whose father is a Rabbi.

Another case: a principal at a preparatory school for teenagers in Marseille told Jews not to attend his school because they would be harassed by Muslim students.

Muslim anti-semitism in France has soared to such heights that Ricard Abitbol, President of the Confederation of Jews in France, warned that “In a few decades, there will be no Jews in France.”

As Robert Spencer noted about the roots of Islamic antisemitism while reporting on an attack by three Muslim women who attacked a Jewish woman because she was wearing a Star of David pendant:

The Qur’an depicts the Jews as inveterately evil and bent on destroying the well-being of the Muslims. They are the strongest of all people in enmity toward the Muslims (5:82); they fabricate things and falsely ascribe them to Allah (2:79; 3:75, 3:181); they claim that Allah’s power is limited (5:64); they love to listen to lies (5:41); they disobey Allah and never observe his commands (5:13). They are disputing and quarreling (2:247); hiding the truth and misleading people (3:78); staging rebellion against the prophets and rejecting their guidance (2:55); being hypocritical (2:14, 2:44); giving preference to their own interests over the teachings of Muhammad (2:87); wishing evil for people and trying to mislead them (2:109); feeling pain when others are happy or fortunate (3:120); being arrogant about their being Allah’s beloved people (5:18); devouring people’s wealth by subterfuge (4:161); slandering the true religion and being cursed by Allah (4:46); killing the prophets (2:61); being merciless and heartless (2:74); never keeping their promises or fulfilling their words (2:100); being unrestrained in committing sins (5:79); being cowardly (59:13-14); being miserly (4:53); being transformed into apes and pigs for breaking the Sabbath (2:63-65; 5:59-60; 7:166); and more. They are under Allah’s curse (9:30), and Muslims should wage war against them and subjugate them under Islamic hegemony (9:29).

“Elderly Jewish woman thrown off balcony by Muslim neighbour was an anti-Semitic murder France finally admits”, by Isabelle Gerretsen, International Business Times, February 28, 2018:

The brutal murder of a Jewish woman in Paris has been declared an “anti-Semitic attack”, following global outcry at French authorities’ refusal to condemn the killing as an anti-Jewish hate crime.

Orthodox Jew Sarah Halimi, 65, was beaten to death by her Franco-Malian neighbour, 27-year-old Kobili Traoré, in April 2017. Neighbours said they heard Traoré shout “Allahu akbar”, Arabic for “God is Great”, before throwing Halimi’s body off a balcony.

“I’ve killed the demon,” he allegedly shouted in Arabic, according to French media.

In July 2017, a judge charged Traoré with murder, but declined to add anti-Semitic motivation to the charge.

Halimi’s family said that Traoré should have been charged with “murder with antisemitism as an aggravating circumstance.”

The judgment sparked fury across France and was widely reported on by the international media.

Following the international furore, French President Emmanuel Macron called for a thorough investigation into the murder.

On Wednesday (28 February), a French judge ruled that the killing should be categorised as an anti-Semitic hate crime…..

    Think of all the comparatively fine people who were ended by the guillotine during France’s not so distant past, and yet this indescribably wicked and cowardly filth will keep his head.

    He’s so obviously a rampaging conscienceless degenerate that it would be a mercy to himself and the rest of the world to simply end his life.

    It is time to semi-retire the word anti-Semitism. Some reasons:
    1. Arabs are Semites
    2. Anti-Semitism is a “racial” doctrine like that of Hitler that opposes Jews on ethnic , not religious grounds

    The right term for the antipathy to Jews commonly found among Muslims is “Jew-hatred.” We should use it: it is an ugly term appropriate to an ugly reality.

    French didn’t need moslems to teach them anti-semitism. Catholic Church did a good job of it. French history is full of pogroms. Louis the IX was a rabid anti-semite and was canonized. Remember captain Dreyfus? There were no moslems in France at that time.
    Poland has no moslem population, but plenty of anti-semitism. Gospel of John could be used by Hitler when he was writing Mein Campf.
    Anti-semitism cannot be imported if local population is against it.

      Anti-Semitism and other types of anti-Jewish attitudes (not all anti-Jewish attitudes are anti-Semitic) certainly can be importedeven if “local population is against it” IF that local population is diluted to the point of ineffectualityy–which is happening in parts of Europe, and has been happening in parts of US, mainly due to mass immigration, for a long time.

      Where are the Congregationalists of New England, the New York Dutch Reformed and the Pennsylvania Quakers, all religious groups that by the standards of their day, had RELATIVELY benign attitudes towards Jews, compared to say their contemporaries 17th and 18th century European Roman Catholics and Muslim Middle Easterners? No longer numerous, nor politically or culturally significant in those areas, due to mass immigration of other ethnicities and religions to those same regions, as well as their own emigration and lower fertility.

      In an age of mass immigration and differential fertility, a “local population” does not necessarily stay the “local population” for long.

    Wrong again:
    “Allahu akbar”, Arabic for “God is Great”,

    the correct translation is: Allah is the greatest
    Which is a huge differnce from what we are always been told

      Yes, but all praise to YHWH He is the Almighty. Once the church realises it doesn’t need to tolerate this, and get involved with spiritual warfare, all will change. If the church remains asleep then YHWH will not act until they do. The church needs to wake up-sooner rather than later.
