Western Lives Matter: Teacher Beheaded in Paris
by Giulio Meotti, Gatestone Institute:
Western Lives Matter. We should ask all the journalists, the politicians, the clerics, the people of the street, to kneel for Samuel Paty. This French school teacher was the victim of the most ferocious racism that circulates today in Western democracies, that of fundamentalist beliefs against “infidels”. The Chechen terrorist, after beheading Paty, called him a “dog”. “In the name of Allah, the most gracious, the most merciful…,” the terrorist wrote after the attack, “Macron, the leader of the infidels, I executed one of your dogs who dared to belittle Muhammad…”.
Paty was murdered for having carried out his work as a teacher with conscience and courage, educating his students to respect the founding values of our societies and the three words mounted over the doors of his school: Liberté, égalité, fraternité, freedom, equality, brotherhood. Paty had shown Charlie Hebdo‘s Mohammed cartoons to his students to sensitize them to freedom of expression. He had also asked his pupils to create a drawing based on those three words.
“A borderline in the abominable has just been crossed” essayist Pascal Bruckner said.
“They are attacking the most sacred stronghold of the Republic: the school and the physical person of the teachers. A teacher is beheaded for showing the Charlie Hebdo cartoons in a freedom of speech seminar. The victim has reportedly received death threats. The butcher of Conflans-Saint-Honorine is ISIS at home: a solemn message in the form of a macabre ceremony, a warning for all the teaching staff who will have to shut up or perish. This is not an act of ‘separatism’, it is a declaration of war that must be dealt with accordingly”.
“It is time to close all the Islamist prayer rooms, we know very well where they are,” said General Pierre de Villiers. “It is an attack on the very existence of our nation and civilization.” They have known this for years and have done nothing. Courage is lacking, collaborationists abound. “Only force reduces violence… It is time to send radical imams back to their countries of origin without delay.”
