Killer becomes a 'victim'

Op-ed: False notion of 'Muslim victimhood' raises its head in wake of Toulouse murders

Politically correct European elites and many Muslims have jointly created the perception that all Muslims are victims of the West. Consistent flawed reasoning and false arguments have made this possible.

On the basis of the fake "victimhood" platforms created over the years, whitewashers of Toulouse murderer Mohamed Merah are constructing new false images. It is difficult to deny that the three French soldiers, a Jewish teacher and three children whom he killed are victims. Once having paid tribute to them, whitewashers began to turn the brutal murderer into a victim as well.

Op-ed: Unlike Norway's Breivik, Toulouse killer Merah represents far wider phenomenon

Among the most intelligent Merah apologists is Tariq Ramadan, a Geneva-born Professor of Contemporary Islamic Studies at Oxford. He first whitewashed Muslim anti-Semite Merah's worldview. He eloquently wrote that "Merah was a misguided youngster in whose thought there were no values of Islam or racist and anti-Semitic ideas."

The next step was to turn Merah into a victim. In Ramadan's words, Merah was "a poor guy, guilty and to be condemned undoubtedly, even if he himself was a victim of a social order which had already condemned him and millions of others to a marginality and a non-recognition of his statute of citizen with equal rights and chances." Ramadan thus transformed Merah into a non-racist, non- anti-Semitic victim of society, whose ideas had nothing to do with any Muslim current.

French philosopher Andre Glucksmann attacked Ramadan as well as the entire whitewashing process that blamed French authorities rather than Merah. This created a fallacy that "the executioner was a victim and the victims are executioners."

This is al quaida’s own brag video of “the lion” of Toulouse.

Not quite what the islamics and their fellow travellers seek to portray.

Like Obama, these animals are not very good at keeping a mask.

Wouldn’t this usurp Al and Jesse’s racial “victimhood” racket?

It’s a toughie... both groups like to mix politics with (social) religion.

Hey! I'm all for this!

That way, when our side goes all Crusade on Islamics, we can also claim we were victims!

Yep. And we have an “Israeli” journalist working here, Karin Abraham, who was frantically pushing the shooting as “far right, neo-nazi”, then flipped to damage control mode whining about the hate against poor muslims.

Of course, there’s money in catering to the antizionist market. Lots of money.

When you check my posts, you’ll find that I said from the beginning that he is an ARAB MUSLIM. Because I now France and I know Arab racism.
