Free speech

This Wednesday marks the opening in Paris of the trial of the attacks on Charlie Hebdo. I don’t understand why the French always talk about “attentats” when these were assassinations. I don’t know why, but since Charlie, the Bataclan, Brussels airport, France and Belgium still allow the islamists to continue their conquest of all spheres of our society. I don’t understand how making a link between islamism and islam would constitute an “amalgam”. I don’t know what brainwashing pushes us to label as right-wing extremist or fascist those who warn us against this drift when, precisely, fascist acts (terror, hatred of Jews, aggressions, summary executions) are committed by islamists. I don’t understand why so many elected officials, journalists, labels and brands are cozying up to these barbarians, thus becoming more zealous collaborators than under the German occupation. I don’t understand why we don’t enforce the respect of our laws, why we don’t defend our territories anymore. I don’t understand why we’re afraid of that which we will have to confront, sooner or later, whether we want to or not.
