On October 12, we had an extraordinary photo in Paris: In response to the call of the presidents of the French Parliament and the Senate, 105,000 citizens gathered in the capital against anti-Semitism, as opposed to 185,000 of the marches of the French State. Since 7 October, Republican values were at the forefront of the union. Despite the honourable nature of the initiative, it has opened a debate.
Firstly, because there has long been an Islamic environment in France, to follow the electorate’s goals when it has become a fertile way to win votes. Both attacks on mosques, extreme right-wing attacks on initiatives in favour of Palestine or the prohibition of prefet, and daily insult, Islamophobia has increased since 7 October, but, with exceptions, does not reach the media attention of anti-Semitism. In addition, the tip of the right has increased the controversy. There were the most well-known xenophobic representatives: Marine Le Pen and Jordan Bardella, Marion Marechal and Eric Zemmour, of the Reconquete party, of the National Front, today known as the National Union RN. Although they strongly criticized the presence of the tip of the right, most parties on the left prioritized the option of being present, that is, constituting symbolically and politically a “health barrier” between them.
Opening the Palestinian flag to the four winds, once again millions of people occupied the streets, in Paris they dominated the Israeli (and French) flags. That is the image that France left to the international, and to Israel. Who prohibits demonstrations in favour of Palestine. But beware: government representatives made it clear that Israel was not the subject of the demonstration. Yes, it must be acknowledged that it is difficult to ignore global geopolitics when it comes to the march, and I would like to know how the march has been read at international level.
Israel thanked him. Isaac Herzog, President of Israel, was also the gummy of French television LCI in mainstream. He asked what he said about the anticonemist march and said: “Seven years have passed from the Bataclan incident [Daesh attack of 13 November 2015 in the Bataclan concert hall in Paris]. The disease cycle has no end. The terrible event of 7 October is a new outbreak of the Bataclan massacre, driven by the force of the disease. Daesh, Hamas and Al-Qaeda are the forces of the disease. The issue is not Israel - Hamas. There is a clash between two cultures, the culture of the people and the culture that bets on national civilizations. [We Take a Book Out of the Table] This book, Mein Kampf from Hitler, in northern Gaza, has been found in the room of a child turned into the center of Hamas. I was in the pocket of a sixteen-year-old terrorist killed in the last few days. Here we are. We have to fight, without thinking, because we cannot accept.” The answer would seem acceptable, without any comments or nuances, to the journalist who jumped to the next question. We are in it, and one day we will have to look at the choice – that is, propaganda – of words, tones, images, questions and headlines from the media about the massacre in Gaza.
Since 7 October the position of the French State has been clear: Israel has the "right to legitimate defence" and is absolutely protected in the "fight against terrorists". Emmanuel Macron was in Tel-Aviv on 24 October. He then launched a proposal that no one had mentioned before: The international coalition against Daesh against Hamas. From there he moved to the West Bank and Mahmud Abbas met the President of Palestine, the second head of state of Abbas, after the Dutch, since 7 October. Aware that the suffering of civilians in Gaza was "unjustifiable", it reaffirms the political position of France, the two-state solution. But the appointment with the Israeli Prime Minister was the one that prevailed since that day. In the end, that's the position of Macron's government. In the liver of Israel, that is, the United States, it was blindly aligned, but in recent decades it was linked to France without fully demonstrating its political position.
In 2019 Emmanuel Macron stepped further, voting on
the resolution that puts
anti-Zionism into anti-Semitism
Think about it, after the BBC interview on 10 November he called the President of Israel to ratify his support. In addition to calling for a "ceasefire" and a "humanitarian pause," Israel criticized the deaths of civilians "without reason or legitimacy," it harshly complained to Herzog and his friends. He had to call him to ratify the "right of Israel to defend itself" and so summarized Herzog: "He tells me he does not accuse Israel of harming civilians at will." Five days later, he again criticizes the attacks on civilians. This is Macron, regular, but fiercely behind Israel.Este alignment
with Israel is so clear and assumed by France since the presidency of Nicolas Sarkozy. The Israeli-Palestinian conflict has also over time become "the fight against terrorism of the [Palestinians]." Macro went further in 2019, voting on the resolution that placed anti-Zionism within anti-Semitism. The passage led to disagreement among some Jews: 127 World Jewish intellectuals demanded parliamentarians not accept the step of assimilating anti-Zionism into anti-Semitism. Now, sixteen right-wing senators have tabled a bill to punish anti-Zionism.
Step by step, France has completely lost the sympathy of the Arab peoples it managed to regain in previous decades. Charles de Gaulle was the French president who managed to reassure relations. Mainly because of the recognition of Algeria ' s independence, which ended the bloody war that lasted between 1954 and 1962. Moreover, in 1967 it launched the Six-Day War, although it strongly criticized Israel’s attack – “Now Israel is occupying the occupied territories, which is not without oppression, repression and expulsion. The phrase "Has resistance as terrorism to the height" is known, randated at the press conference on 27 November 1967. The “principle of non-alignment” with Israel has since been maintained. To Sarkozy.
However, the years 1948-1967 were "golden years" of relations between Israel and France. Thinking of the Holocaust of the Second World War, France recognized the nature of Israel and granted it all its protection. In 1956, Israel, France and the United Kingdom were together in the Sinai War bombing Egypt for not accepting the nationalization of the Suez channel of the socialist anti-imperialist Egyptian socialist Gamal Abdel Nasser. On 22 July of that year they met in the city of Sevres in Paris to agree to the attack. Despite the failure of France and the United Kingdom, Israel came out perpendicular, clearly showing the world its military strength. In essence, the French President of the Council of Ministers, Guy Mollet, said: "The only positive point is that we have saved Israel." Finally, let us not forget the basis, the Sykes-Picot agreement signed on 16 May 1916 between France and the United Kingdom in secret: They agreed to the colonial division of the Middle East, passing independence to the Arab peoples above the promise.

The Israeli imperialist offensive has entered a new phase: bombings in Yemen, Lebanon and Syria; attacks on Iran; attempted invasion of Lebanon… The Zionists have achieved an old goal: Go beyond Palestine and turn the attack into a regional war.
The increase in the offensive... [+]
