Israel National News slams Macron: Someone should slap president of failed state
In a recent op-ed published by Israel National News – Arutz Sheva, Dr. Michael Wise, a founder and investor in numerous technology companies, slams French President Macron for comments against Israel, questioning his right for such remarks amidst France’s colonial past. Caliber.Az reprints a series of excerpts from the article.
“French President Macron, with the help of Saudi Arabia, is organizing a meeting in Paris on June 11 to launch an international gathering at the United Nations on June 16 in order to establish a Palestinian Arab state.
What right does the diminutive president of the French Republic have to declare a "moral duty" as well as a "political necessity" to threaten the existence of the Jewish State of Israel? What right do he and the President of Spain and other European Leaders have to accuse Israel of genocide and violation of humanitarian codes of warfare?
Macron’s French Republic has a long history of imperialism, colonialism, subjugation of native populations, genocide, ethnic cleansing and other unspeakable atrocities. Sub Saharan Africa, and Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco are very familiar with France’s criminal history. And don’t forget France capitulated and then supported the Nazis. Today, by what standard does Macron have the right to attack and condemn the State of Israel. How can he demand that Israel not protect itself and terminate those who boast that they will repeat the October 7th massacre.
All of a sudden, the president of the failing state of France has decided to become an international statesman. He is calling for a global conference to both criticize the state of Israel and to rally anti-Israel countries demanding the creation of a Palestinian Arab state. Anyone familiar with recent history understands that that state will quickly come under the domination of Hamas and other violent terrorist organizations that would seek the destruction of the state of Israel.
There is little doubt that Macron’s partners will create a public spectacle on the 11th of June. People will stand up and accuse Israel of genocide, of starving the innocent population of Gaza, and of destroying the peaceful tunnel structures and arms depots throughout Gaza. Israel will be accused of murdering the innocent peace-loving Hamas shield populations in Gaza.
Macron is busy trying to rally support among other European countries. Germany will not join so far. They have had experience in trying to destroy the Jewish people. Other Europeans including the Czech Republic and Hungary have also refused to join. Little Macron joining with Saudi Arabia, with its own complicated internal agenda, will fortunately not attract enough interest to elevate himself into the position of the Great Middle East Peacemaker. His delusions of grandeur will quickly dissipate.
One may ask why is he moving in this direction? It is a combination of several factors. Behind Macron is his adviser on Middle East Affairs and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Ofer Bronchtein. Ofer is a French-Israeli “peace activist,” and president and co-founder of the Paris-based International Forum for Peace. For years he has been lobbying for a Palestinian Arab state. Apparently October 7 taught him nothing.
His popularity among the French electorate is somewhere around 17%. In the hope of increasing his abysmal popularity Macron trumpets that Israel is a genocidal country engaged in outrageous cruel efforts to starve an innocent population.
Where is Macron’s sanity? US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee just proposed that France set aside the Riviera for Gazan Arabs.
Someone has to slap this guy in the face to possibly bring him back to some sense of reality and truth,” the article states.
