French left-wing leader says Jews promote ‘violent sectarianism’

The left’s Jew hatred disgorges a strange sort of creative malevolence. Violent sectarianism?

Sectarianism as: “Narrow-minded beliefs that lead to prejudice, discrimination, malice and ill-will towards members, or presumed members, of a religious denomination.”

French left-wing leader says Jews promote ‘violent sectarianism’

Paris – A leader of the French left accused French Jews of inciting violence against him and promoting “violent and aggressive sectarianism.”

Jean-Luc Melenchon, leader of the France Unbowed party, inveighed against the CRIF federation of Jewish communities on Sunday during a televised interview with France Inter.

“Sectarianism’s always been a problem for the republican idea,” said Melenchon. “Take CRIF. It practices blatant, violent and aggressive sectarianism, namely against me, right? To the point of encouraging people to hit me during a demonstration like the one for Mirelle Knol.”

Mirelle Knol was a Holocaust survivor who was murdered in her Paris apartment last year, allegedly by a Muslim neighbour. CRIF asked Melenchon and the leader of the right-wing National Rally party, Marine Le Pen, not to attend a commemorative march for Knol. Both politicians came to the march anyway, where participants booed them until police escorted them away.

CRIF did not call for violence and none occurred at the event. The group also condemned the booing.

Melenchon went on to call CRIF “bizarre, folkloristic and ridiculous.” Asked whether sectarianism exists also among Muslims, Melenchon said: “No. They have delinquents, same as anywhere, but none claim their law supersedes others.”

Melenchon has been accused of antisemitic rhetoric in the past. In 2014, he called French Jews “an aggressive community preaching to the rest of the nation.”

Melenchon won a fifth of the votes in the 2017 presidential election.

I do not know what the situation that exists in France, so
it would be foolish of me to comment on the indigenous people of France’s
attitude towards the Jews that live there, but if the problems exist it seems
to be developing dramatically worldwide, as anti-Semitism is being practiced
openly, rather than when it was simply a suppressed hatred of a people, who I
cannot understand why they are hated so viciously. Sure I know that Islam is a
known hater of the Jews, and that all started when the Jews refused to accept
Mohammod as a messiah, and it is the underpinning of their belief system, a
system that calls for their annihilation, and over the last 30 some odd years
their hate towards these people has increased outwardly that they have probably
been the trigger for more violence recently than what would be expected, but
the violence seems more pronounced even in the states as well as elsewhere. I
have heard all the inane reasons given for why the Jews are treated so badly,
but when you line of the facts that constitute what Jews have contributed to humanity,
the scales drop dramatically in their favor. Is it jealousy, envy or some other
reason that they are treated with disdain? I simply cannot figure it out. Why
are such productive and humane contributors to humanity treated so badly? They do
not deserve this horrendous attitude!
