If a political figure in Asia, Africa, or South America said something similar about wanting to preserve the cultural integrity of his country, he would be applauded. If he said he wanted to preserve the native culture against Western influence, he would be hailed as a hero. Only in Europe and North America is such talk “racist” and “xenophobic.”
“Presidential election 2022: Zemmour wants to ban ‘cathedral mosques’ so that ‘France remains a landscape of churches,’” translated from “Présidentielle 2022 : Zemmour veut interdire les “mosquées cathédrales” pour que “la France reste un paysage d’églises”,” Valeurs Actuelles, February 10, 2022 (thanks to Medforth):
About twenty French citizens took part in the second episode of “France in sight,” Wednesday February 9, on the set of BFM TV. Asked about his program, but also about current events, Éric Zemmour answered their questions and those asked by Bruce Toussaint. Faced with Karim, a Frenchman of Muslim faith, the candidate of Reconquest! in the presidential election defended the idea that the country should welcome churches rather than mosques, “for cultural reasons.” The author of La France n’a pas dit son dernier mot (France has not yet spoken its last word) has also signified his intention to ban “cathedral mosques,” so that “France remains a landscape of churches,” if he were elected president.
“The conquest of a French territory”
“In France, I don’t want to hear the voice of the muezzin,” Zemmour said before rejecting the construction of cathedral-like mosques, which he said were too big, the news channel reported. He also judged that for “some Muslims” large mosques meant “conquering a French territory”. He continued, “Muslims will of course be able to go to the mosque.” In this context, he referred to “more discreet” buildings.
During the same evening, the former Le Figaro journalist was also asked about the migration issue. He promised a man who called on him to deploy “border guards” at European borders: “It is planned, we will deploy the tools.” Following this statement, Éric Zemmour disclosed that he would “support the idea of building walls on the borders of the European Union” and praised the various initiatives taken by a number of countries such as Hungary. He said that these initiatives “defend European civilization,” but are rejected by other states such as France or Germany. He concluded by saying, “I will tip the majority in Europe in favor of the fortress wall!”
Michael Copeland says
Every mosque – “Nothing like a church” (Sam Solomon) – is a conspiracy house for furthering Islam’s stated goal, “Destroying the Western civilisation from within” (MB Explanatory Memorandum)..
Islam’s agenda is hostile.

Non muslims are “the enemy”

Non-Muslims are not allowed in for the sermons. The mosque instructs and reinforces Islamic Apartheid.

Don’t bet on it! If anybody in India, Burma, Sri Lanka or Israel – all Asian countries – said anything about preserving the cultural i.e. non-muslim identities of their countries, they’d be condemned as fascist islamophobes. Asians, these days, are White-adjacent, and that includes some pretty dark complexioned inhabitants of the Indic subcontinent (unless they happen to be muslim)
Adaptively Emergent says
Very true!
Kepha says
Our neo-racist movement is Leftist in inspiration; only it now targets the “white” and “white adjacent”. Nothing disgusts me more about the direction our country is headed than this screeching about how “race is an artificial construct” (true enough) when coupled with an equally loud screech that “race” utterly defines a person.
Today, our Black History Month inspirational profile was of the despicable Angela Davis, a Communist thug who was let off charges in the murder of a judge on a technicality back in the Sillier ‘Seventies. She then went on to do a victory lap in the Warsaw Pact countries, including accolades from the great humanist Erich Shoot-to-kill Mielke, the late, unlamented head of the GDR’s Ministerium fur Staatsssicherheit.
Our country is more and more infested with ideological vermin.

Good for him. He seems like a man with a brain and knows why it’s in his head. He has evidently spent some time actually *thinking*.
We will all see if he succeeds.

I hope Mr.Zemmour will win. France had never had a really good President so there is the only chance for France to stop the islamic invasion to France and made France great again
Yogi says
I hope He wins , it’s no other choice for France, maybe Marine La Pen , but I doubt it, Europe is in my prayers for clean up this horrific mess with thus parasites, where Merkel&CO and Macron started, and is no sign to stop this barbarians coming to our continent and our countries demanding everything and reaping our daughters , I just truly hope people wake up to this ..
Wellington says
Charles Martel would be smiling.
Fitna says
I’d love for Zemmour to win but the polls are predicting another victory for Macron, the bovine herd has learned nothing and continues to vote for failure and decline and more Islamification.
Wellington says
Just yesterday, Fitna, I had a conversation with a Turk (and a highly accomplished person in their field) who is pro-Ataturk and anti-Erdogan but who went on to say that Trump is just like Erdogan.
Ah, where to begin, eh? Erdogan is anti-liberty and Trump is completely pro-liberty. And since I had many other things to do yesterday I did not begin to counter this person’s nonsense but just listened to it, in complete silence, and left thinking how very accomplished this person is in their field but how very deficient this person is respecting overall geopolitical and historical considerations.
Often times I take such people on, but yesterday I just concluded “not this time” but perhaps the “next time.” Besides, this person was performing for me a very valuable service and I didn’t want to piss them off. Pick and choose your battles, no?
gravenimage says
Crazy, Wellington. Not that surprised, sadly.
Fitna says
I hear you Wellington and I don’t blame you. I’ve been in similar situations where you have no choice but to pretend to agree with such people or smile and nod because they’re giving you something that you needed.
I think he’s one of these people that goes along with Lefty group-think, not realizing Trump is far more like Ataturk than Erdogan. The media and intelligentsia has also failed western populations by not educating them on Islam.
Unfortunately it appears that change is going to be a slow, long process.
James Lincoln says
Wellington,
I hear you loud and clear.
I’ve had some very similar experiences with highly educated liberals. I listen attentively and then, carefully, try to “move the needle” of the conversation toward the center. I’ve had some success.
This is not work with full-blown Leftists. They will cancel you.
Yogi says
Rigged election again and again, this criminals never resign by them self , it was in Germany ( no AFD) beacuse they are very uncomfortable for them , that’s why Germany have today communist government unfortunately..
Fitna says
Just perusing some of the center-left articles on Zemmour and it’s stunning and discouraging how deeply these journalists have their heads up their backsides.
Muslims are literally conquering France right before their eyes and they continue to paint Zemmour as the Devil the way they did to Trump.
They’re using all their intellectual powers and influence to defend Islam, the most vicious and destructive ideology in human history. They’re stuck on stupid.
This is equivalent to defending the rise of Nazism during the 1930s. Looks like we might get another global war at this rate. Though I doubt the US will have the desire to save Europe another time.
somehistory says
Probably couldn’t, anyway, as biden/”bo” is intent on making America into the “paradise” of the fake ‘prophet’s’ imagination….lust and drunk with power to sink ever lower than any have ever sunk before. The U.S. probably couldn’t save itself with those fools directing things and putting mozlums and perverts in positions of power.
Fitna says
Agreed, America (and Canada) is in it’s own struggle with the same kind of idiots running Europe.
I’m well educated but I can’t understand the magical appeal Islam seems to have for Leftists. The more they rape and terrorize, the more Lefties defend them and the more Muslims they invite to their countries.
By now every Liberal should’ve seen throw the Muslim smokescreen of fake victimhood and should’ve realized they are the aggressors, but they continue to treat them as some persecuted minorities that need their paternalism to save them from the big bad Conservative wolf.
At the end of the day they chose the wrong side of history and they’ll get what’s coming same as for the Muslims. Not because of anything I say but because of people who love freedom and hate evil ideologies that will eventually rise up and fight back.
somehistory says
I could be wrong…I’m usually wrong at least once a day, then I relax.
Anyway, I think that those inviting and petting the mozlum terrorists, believe they can use them to defeat the rest of us….as David Horowitz proved in his book, “Dark Agenda,” they hate Christianity…all who disagree with their way, Once they have us defeated…gone from the land of earth, they’ll attempt to get rid of their new pets.
Fitna says
I think there are some on the fringe Left who dream of eliminating their opponents, so perhaps there is some truth to that theory as with “Cancel Culture.”
I recall these same bastards targeted heroes on the right like Laura Loomer, Katie Hopkins, Tommy Robinson and others who were opposing Islam and sought to have them removed from all social (and news) media so that they couldn’t even earn a living.
They even went as far as having their bank accounts frozen or denied to them…falsely claiming they belong to ‘far-right hate groups.’ So definitely there is an element among them that is at war with us and on the Muslims’ side.
They could find allies in Muslims because they know they’re willing to use force/violence to achieve their goals and maybe the Left are too cowardly to do it themselves so they cynically are using the Muslims as cannon fodder.
However from what I’ve seen in history, esp. with Iran as an example, its really the Muslims using the Left to advance Islam and when they’re done with them, they’ll all get beheaded. Either way the Left are playing with fire, if they don’t have a plan to keep the Muslims under their control.
For me personally as an ex-Christian (and politically Centrist), I see all of us non-Muslims on the same team and we share 90% or more of the same values, such as love of freedom, country, democracy, etc. we only differ on a few issues.
I’m sure there are many sane Liberals who are also more moderate minded as well and more sensible than the Lefty loons. Hopefully one day we’ll form a mass movement that will stop the radical Left-Islam alliance.
somehistory says
Of course, the mozlums are using those who are helping them with the goal of eliminating them when the deed is done.
And with my comment….i used spacing to put in the part about the book, “Dark Agenda,” so that I was showing one part of the group that those using and being used, hate. Not that Christians only are hated, just that Mr. Horowitz showed the haters’ ways of working and their end goals.
I was just listening to Glenn Beck on what hillary clinton did…with the hackers framing Mr. Trump and what is happening in Canada with the guy saying those who refuse the shots are “taking up space.”
Beck played a clip of g bernard shaw….said by some to be a great man…advocating back in the 1920’s that they set up a “board” to have each of us go before to give an accounting of why we should be allowed to live, and if we can’t prove that we produce more than we consume, then we should be eliminated.
These kinds of people have been around forever…and they will never learn that evil has no future.
somehistory says
I just received this in an email from Mr. Horowitz
“If you had any doubts about who was in charge – or if what’s happening to our country is intentional or the consequence of incompetence, this should answer your question…
The Pentagon is publicly defending “democratic socialism.”
You read that right
The Department of Defense’s National Defense University – the premiere educational institution for our military – is hosting a lecture urging Western countries to adopt socialism.
Our country is being destroyed from the inside out by the very people that are supposed to be defending us.
And it couldn’t be more clear to me that this is by design.
Inflation, food shortages, the border crisis – I don’t think any of it’s a coincidence, or a mistake.
I think they’re ushering in socialism right under our noses, and conditioning us for what’s to come.”
James Lincoln says
somehistory,
If history is any guide, the Leftist/Marxists will go the way of the Tudeh Party of Iran after the 1979 revolution.
James Lincoln says
Right now, Zemmour seems to be the only one who can save France.
Michael Copeland says
Almost alone of French politicians Zemmour knows the doctrines of Islam.
“The mosques are our barracks, …the faithful our soldiers”, says an old Islamic poem. A mosque is a bridgehead, a rabat, where quasi-military political Islam marks its territory and plans its expansion. Several mosques in Europe and the UK, like the Finsbury Park mosque, have been found by police to be storing firearms.
The Muslim Brotherhood’s “Explanatory Memorandum” sets out Islam’s aim: “Destroying the Western civilisation from within”. European politicians have negligently failed to inform themselves.

Zemmour says he’ll ban ‘cathedral-like mosques’ so ‘France remains a landscape of churches’
………….
This *is* the conquest of Infidel territory. I doubt many in France willl understand this, though.
OLD GUY says
Zemmour is correct. We should preserve and protect our culture and society from invading species that wish to destroy us. Islam is no different than Kudzu that once it gets a start in a foreign land is spreads and kills all other plant life. Diversity is a “JOKE” and misleading, there is NO-DIVERSITY with ISLAM only hate for others and violence.
STOP the invasion!
Kepha says
France as a landscape of churches is worth nothing if those churches remain empty and maintained only as tourist attractions. If the faith that once filled them is gone, there is nothing for them save to be turned into theaters or mosques in a few years time. Has the salt lost its savor, per Jesus Christ’s prophecy? (Mt. 5:13). Proud, post-Christian Western man, who rails at God and His Anointed, meekly bares his raised 肛門 to an Islam which truly needs to be mocked as the inhuman travesty it is.
Zemmour probably doesn’t stand a snowball’s chance in Hell. However, I note he is of Maghrebi Jewish parentage. His people probably have a long memory of what it’s like to live as Dhimmi under Islam, and ought to be heeded. However, I do not think that post-modern Westerners are willing to heed such voices.
gravenimage says
Kepha, I take your point. But your saying that there is no difference between a Church sitting empty or being a trourist attration or being used as an “event center” and its being used as a Msoque. The latter is an *active evil*.
