On the last Sunday of May, 30 angry black men stormed into the heart of the old Jewish quarter, terrorizing residents, shopkeepers, and Sunday strollers. The self-styled militia of the Ka Tribe, a black separatist group originally connected to the no-longer funny black comic Dieudonné MBala MBala, embodied the worst fears of a Jewish community exposed, since January 2006, to a new rise in anti-Semitic attacks.
Three months after the torture-murder of Ilan Halimi, the intimidating incursion of the Ka militia into the narrow Jewish street of the Marais looks like an ominous sign of worse to come. The Ka Tribe is the lunatic fringe of a broad anti-Semitic movement originally inspired by Dieudonné, who has become a hero to a segment of black French society by focusing resentment on Jews. But Dieudonné, with a French mother and Cameroonian father, was not black enough for Stellio Capochichi, the Tribes leader, whose origins are Haitian and Ivoirian.
A self-serving interview with the college-educated leader, who calls himself Fara (pharaoh) Kemi Saba, appeared on the Ka website until the government shut it down two days after the rue des Rosiers incursion. Deftly manipulating the terms and gestures of French intellectual discourse, Kemi Saba, flanked by two husky bodyguards, lays out his latter-day ideology of negritude, a rehash of the worst of Cheikh Anta Diop, Frantz Fanon, Aimé Césaire, born-again Africanism, and Malcolm X, served up with the nastiness of the Black Panthers and Nation of Islam. Though Kemi Saba preaches total separation from leucodermes (anything less than 100 percent pure blacks) and rejects both Christianity and Islam, he has a soft spot for Islamism. In a communiqué attacking Sarkkkozy the Jew, the Faras spokesman lashes out at [whites] who make caricatures of the prophet of Islam.
Kemi Sabas resentment is all-embracing: the injustice that rankles him began with the very origins of humanity. The kémites (the term replaces leucoderm words like blacks, Africans, or Antilleans) are the true chosen people, destined to rule the world. Victims of oppression of mythical proportions, they will liberate themselves by returning to original sources of spirituality and social organization. Ka malesmedzatonesare noble warriors; the femalesAsetare sublime beauties and perfect mothers; the children learn to be true kémites in the School of Hor (Horus).
Eyewitnesses concur about the incursion: 30 men in paramilitary formation stormed into rue des Rosiers, shouting threats and insults against Jews. Some wore boxers mouthpieces and leather gloves with brass knuckles. They burned with anger and itched for a fight. Frantic calls to the police met with laconic replies: Yes, we have been informed.
The men stomped and shouted for what seemed an endless 20 minutes. People who had seen the interview with Kemi Saba on the Ka website recognized him, protected by his bodyguards and visibly directing the operation according to plan. Some shopkeepers lowered their metal shutters as soon as they saw the hostile group round the corner at rue Vieille du Temple and march into rue des Rosiers. Others took people into their fragile boutiques. Men, women, and children felt totally defenseless, delivered up to a storm of uncontrollable rage. Some witnesses report seeing baseball bats, sticks, knives; others suspected their presence under thick black jackets; all believed that these men were capable of committing a massacre. The police did not come until the militia had left. They did collar some members of the group later, close to their Belleville headquarters; they questioned and released them.
The capture of Youssouf Fofanaleader of the gang of barbarians accused of the torture-murder of Ilan Halimiand his extradition from the Ivory Coast had provoked the Kas wrath. They sent a message to various Jewish groups and individuals, threatening to kill other Jews if anyone dared to touch a hair on Fofanas head; it has circulated on the Web since late February. Another communiqué warns interior minister Nicolas Sarkozy of dire consequences if Fofana does not get a fair trial. Can he possibly get a fair trial from a leucoderm court? Can he be guilty in the eyes of kémites?
Veiled threats led to aggressive action even before the incursion as the Ka went after real or imagined members of Betar (a group that provides security for Jewish events) and the Jewish Defense League, accused of persecuting blacks and Muslims who penetrate their turfrue des Rosiersand beating up kémites during the memorial march for Ilan Halimi. On May 19, the Ka militia stormed a gym in the 9th arrondissement, looking for Betar and Jewish Defense League strongmen. There they terrorized kids (non-Jewish ones, as it happened) who were learning an Israeli martial art. The Ka packaged the rue des Rosiers incursion as a pre-arranged showdown with the Zionist extremists and announced a knockout victorybecause the extremists didnt show up.
This fantasized warfare is no less outlandish than the esoteric Ka mythology, built around worship of Aton, a smattering of hieroglyphics, and imitation of Jewish identity. The French government has tolerated the Ka for years, but their hero worship of Fofana, the increasingly vehement threats against Interior Minister Sarkozy, and, now, this show of force in the Jewish quarter has provoked signs of severity. The interior minister visited the rue des Rosiers this Wednesday to show his support and promise results. He has called for a criminal investigation and eventual dissolution of the group. Greeted in Montfermeil with shouts of anger, he found himself welcomed to the Marais with hurrahs and Sarkozy for President.
Outside the ORT school, where the minister met with residents, a dapper gray-haired shop owner said, with dignified regret, Its over for Jews in France. And added, The police told me . . . they said its over for us . . . they cant handle this problem. . . . Its too late.
The police did not come until the militia had left.

Good heavens! Who is going to protect these poor people? And, of course, it is illegal for them to have guns...
Liberty comes from the barrel of a gun.
I was thinking that this must have been how things were just before the Nazi's came to power in 1933.
It sucks to be European these days...and it has for many,many years.I thank God every day that the British drove my ancestors out of Ireland 125 years or so ago.
If liberals here get their way, we'll be just like Europe before you know it. Gun control - socialized medicine - religion removed from society - etc. etc.
What these stupid media folks keep ignoring - it's not the race of the terrorist rioters, it's the religion.....
The French Jews need to arm themselves and shot these people when they attack them.
"The police did not come until the militia had left."
The primal reason for goverment is the mutual protection of the people. France has proven it is incapable of protecting its citizenry.
When Paris burned for months last year, and only a few out of thousands of rioters were arrested, the muslims learned that they have no one who will stand up to them.
If you have loved ones in France, urge them to leave now before its too late.
GUN LAWS -- FRANCE
From: Emmanuel Baechler
If you have to go to France and to practice self defense, you are in a pretty bad situation. Concealed carry is strictly fobidden, unless you are a policeman ON DUTY, or someone like that.
Nearly all autos calibers like .380 ACP, 9mm Para, .40S&W, and .45 ACP are considered as "war caliber" (1st category).
You can get AT MOST license for "war caliber" firearms (up to seven central percussion guns), and that's exclusively for target shooting.
For self defense, you will no more have the choice, if you can get a license for a such purpose (the frenchies are very restrictive), between .32 ACP, .38 Spal and .357 Magnum (4th category) those guns can be bought for Target shooting still with an authorisation.
Even worse, the shamy Schengen agrements, that France signed, forbid the import (ownership, manufacturing and use) of hollowpoint ammo in handguns.
Calling all Frenchmen, calling all Frenchmen, .....hello? Is anyone there?....hello....does anyone in France care anymore?...hello...click!
Time to dust off the "National Razor."
I believe you are wrong there. I am pretty sure its a little of both.
This article has the ring of a hoax. I hope so.
I see the French are at last getting tough on these animals. /sarc/
What's up with these French Jews? They totally bought in on the stereotype of Jews as meek little shopkeepers? Don't they have any strong young men who can take to the street and give these thugs a taste of their own medicine?
I'd like to see these animals try that in the US. This Jewish, Texan leucoderme won't stand by idly, nor will many of my fellow Jewish, Texan leucodermes.
