etting what could become an
ugly precedent for censorship in the EU, 11
Muslim men residing in the French city of Lyon
have brought a race hatred suit in Paris against
Italian writer Oriana Fallaci for writing The
Rage & The Pride as her response to the
Islamofascist destruction of the World Trade
Center on September 11, 2001. Before this
personal suit, French race hate issues went
through their public prosecutor or various
French anti-race associations.
According to their French
lawyer, Giles Devers, the 11 Muslims have as
much of a right to bring suit as any
association. He went on to say, "When a victim
is clearly designated, the sons of Allah, why
should I, a Muslim, not feel victimized?"
However, the true victims Ms
Fallaci wrote about were the men, women, and
children passengers in the hijacked planes and
the inhabitants of the World Trade Center caught
in the collapsing buildings. She described in
agonizing detail watching men and women fling
themselves out of the 80th and 90th floors
rather than face the final crushing and fire.
She noted Muslims world wide celebrating the
death and destruction of September 11. The
Rage & the Pride was a warning to the
West about Islamic terrorism and the theocracy
that spawned it.
One of the warnings that she
gave against Islam was that the Muslims are
reconquering Europe through immigration. She has
been accused of calling Islamic culture rotten
and averring that, "the sons of Allah breed like
rats.
What is not mentioned in this
lawsuit is that Fallaci merely compared Western
versus Islamic civilization and simply found
Islamic culture wanting in terms of
accomplishments. A further reading of The
Rage & The Pride alerts the reader as to
what Somali Islamic immigrants did to Italian
churches in Florence specifically mentioning
urinating into the churches and stopping up
doors with excrement. Considering that animals
do not foul their nests, it should be the rats
suing Fallaci for comparing them to
Muslims.
The Rage & The
Pride's warnings could just as easily apply
to Germany as well as France and Italy.
Currently in Germany Muslims are trying to
establish their own political party with which
to take over the Bundestag. German intelligence
agencies recorded a sermon at a mosque in
Bavaria that said, "The Europeans were once our
slaves; today it is the Muslims. This must
change. We must drive the unbelievers into
deepest hell. We must stick together and hold
our peace until the time comes. You can't see
anything yet, but everything is being prepared
in secret. You must hold yourself in readiness
for the right moment. We must exploit democracy
for our cause. We must cover Europe with mosques
and schools."
Instead of suing for the
publication of The Rage & The Pride,
the French should be protecting writers such as
Ms Fallaci for daring to speak out against a
theocratic totalitarianism bent on destroying
the very civilization, laws, and freedom that
welcomes and accepts them.
Fallaci had been already
targeted by MRAP (Mouvement contre le racisme et
pour l'amitie entre les peoples), which demanded
that The Rage & The Pride be banned
outright. A French judge rejected the case on
technicalities in June of 2002.
Ms Fallaci's French publisher,
Plon, and her lawyers rightfully understand that
the success of this law suit would lead to all
writers critical of Islam to be tied up in the
courts through harassment lawsuits. Fallaci is
currently a resident of New York City. Because
of her cancer, she was unable to appear in court
for the
hearing.
