The Hypocrisy Of The World Leaders Who Participated In The Paris March
Quote:
It was an incredible display of mendacity. Led by more than forty world leaders who linked their arms together, approximately 1.6 million people marched in Paris on Sunday after living through attacks on satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, police officers, and a kosher supermarket. They wanted to show solidarity with those who exercise free speech and with the Jews who are often the target of attacks from the radical Muslim terrorists. Many of those same world leaders marching to demonstrate a harmonious front against terrorism and anti-Semitism, are guilty of supporting terrorism and ignoring anti-Semitism.
It’s time to stop the nonsense and call the attacks what they are Radical Islamist Terrorism.
Perhaps most duplicitous leader of all was French President François Hollande who didn’t want the Prime Minister of Israel, the leader of country with a larger Jewish population than any other, to attend Sunday’s rally and demonstrate solidarity with the Jewish community of France.

Absence sought as part of attempt to keep Israeli-Palestinian conflict out of European show of unity; After Netanyahu insisted on coming, French made it clear Abbas would be invited as well.
[...]
According to the source, Netanyahu at first acquiesced to the French request. In any case, the Shin Bet security service unit that protects public figures considered the arrangements for the prime minister’s security to be complex. And so, on Saturday evening, Netanyahu’s people announced that he would not be flying to Paris because of security concerns. Netanyahu told the French he would come to France on Tuesday for a Jewish community event.
The French apparently sent the same message to Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas. Like Netanyahu, Abbas acceded to the French request and released a strange statement about the same time Netanyahu released his, that he would not be attending the event because of the bad weather.
However, on Saturday night, Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman and Economy Minister Naftali Bennett announced their intention to go to Paris and take part in the march and meet with the Jewish community. When Netanyahu heard they were going, he informed the French he would be attending the march after all.
The French weekly La Canard Enchaine revealed then that Hollande complained in closed talks after that event that he found it unfortunate that Netanyahu had come to Paris to conduct a "two-staged election campaign," starting with a memorial for those murdered at the Jewish school in Tolouse, followed by a his speech at a ceremony there. The French president was quoted by the report saying that it was only because he came with Netanyahu to the ceremony that the Israeli prime minister toned down his speech.
Sources in the Prime Minister's Bureau said Sunday that when contacts were first made with the French over Netanyahu's trip this week, they were told that the visit could "cause difficulties." According to the sources, the Israelis understood that the French were referring mainly to security issues. They added that after the security arrangements were made, Hollande told Netanyahu in a phone call on Saturday evening that he would be happy to see him.

More excuses for Islam. Are his far right ideas or opinions killing anyone? Your **** is getting old. With all your knowledge you are no more than emasculated apologist
nothing to build a tighter and constructive society.
That is exactly what you are preventing. Your tolerance of evil, because of your obvious characters flaws, helps that evil. I guess it goes hand in hand with your arrogance and failure to say anything relevant.

Whatever. Hollande should have told him to stay home.
Hollande ought to try talking with just one side of his mouth.
