Ten years later, what remains of these January 2015 demonstrations against terrorism, the largest demonstration ever recorded in France? What if, in hindsight, after these demonstrations of force, no one took to the streets anymore? The ten years that followed would show us this. The Bataclan of November 13, 2015 had already driven home the point, after these attacks of January 7, 8 and 9, Charlie Hebdothe hostage-taking in a kosher supermarket, everything announced a turning point for our country, a direct attack on our values.
Jews targeted and killed. Journalists targeted and killed. Police officers targeted and killed. Civilians targeted and killed. While France had to shift into awareness, a new narrative was set in motion, quite the contrary. The story of the transformation of reality. The story of validation and acceptance of “I’m not Charlie”. This story which also came verbally, attacked journalists, Jews, police officers, then attacked each of us, prolonging the horror. This narrative was established with the complicity of certain media, journalists and politicians agreeing to allow themselves to be manipulated out of cowardice, even if France is destroyed before their eyes.
This story of “the police kill” has spread a little more every day
This story of «the police tue» spread a little more every day. These attacks against Jews which have increased, against certain well-targeted media, which have become more commonplace every day. To the point of silencing every discordant voice. Who will dare to take to the streets today? All, surrounded by social networks which applaud hate speech against France and which condemn those who dare to tell the truth? Who will take to the streets today, confronting this fear, this threat that hangs over all those who dare to uphold the values of France, the values of common sense, the values of our history?
Yes, it is so much more comfortable to close your eyes, more reassuring to lie to yourself and repeat destructive slogans in unison, hiding your face, as if these slogans did not kill. Who would have thought that after this show of force in January 2015, ten years later, a man would directly call for an intifada in the streets of Paris, against Paris, against France, without hiding, but quite the contrary, microphone, with loudspeaker, in front of a crowd? A crowd applauding? What has happened in ten years? How can we explain the proliferation of these individuals openly calling for attacks in France, after Charlie HebdoJewish supermarkets, the Bataclan? On the contrary, they are encouraged, liked, taken up, retweeted, held up as an example, with complete impunity.
Who allowed this hate speech against our country to grow in France?
Who allowed these hate speeches against our country to grow in France, minimizing these acts and condemning those who denounced them? Hatred has been elevated to a virtue, and the “denouncers” of hate nailed to the dock of the accused and the haters. The story that followed in January 2015 numbed any desire to take to the streets. This France which can no longer, which no longer wants to mobilize, rumbles through the ballot boxes. A muffled rumble when the National Assembly was dissolved, even if it meant being plunged into political instability even today. This rumble from the ballot boxes, calling for us to face reality, has not been heard.
The rest after this ad
France has changed in ten years. The festive moments are now tinged with an atmosphere of fear and threat from the Bataclan. Moments of rejoicing are marked by uncertainty in nightclubs, a real change in ten years, month after month. Like July 14, 2016 where, after the fireworks display for the national holiday, a determined man driving a truck more powerful than a weapon left 86 dead and 458 injured. The target? A crowd of civilians, in the middle of the street. First the police, the journalists, the Jews, the Bataclan merrymakers, now the families, men, women and children. Mohamed Lahouaiej-Bouhlel was at the wheel of the murder truck, a Tunisian living in Nice. The attack was claimed by the terrorist organization Daesh. The October 7 music festival in Israel, a day of celebration, transformed into carnage, also demonstrated this. Happiness transformed into terror.
A dark veil falls over the West
So, in the same way, while the New Year's party was in full swing in this French quarter of New Orleans, a party killer operated, leaving fifteen people dead and around thirty injured. Shamsud-Din Jabbar was driving a car more powerful than a gun, driving into a crowd of civilians. We had just wished these victims the best… The perpetrator of the attack, an army veteran, was a sympathizer of the Islamic State organization (Daesh). A message to the new President of the United States, elected with fervor, and quick to protect his nationals, was sent to him even before his inauguration. A clear message, reinforced a few hours later by the explosion of a Tesla Cybertruck under the windows of the Trump International hotel, killing its author, Matthew Alan Livelsberger, a member of the special forces.
Will Donald Trump be able to reverse the course of events? Joe Biden, still president, saw nothing coming. He declared: “Many people love New Orleans for its history, culture and people. » These are precisely why she was attacked. Everything can happen in the United States, as in France in 2015, and the accusing eyes are already turning towards the one who can act, Donald Trump. The destructive narrative takes hold.
