A milestone victory (French court throws out libel action on staged ‘killing’ of Palestinian child)

Great news from Paris, where the appeal court has today thrown out the libel action against Philippe Karsenty brought by the France 2 TV station for claiming that the ‘killing’ by the Israelis of the Palestinian child Mohammed al Dura, the iconic images of which France 2 transmitted and which incited the second intifada and countless jihadi murders around the world, was a staged and fabricated event and that the child was not killed at all. I have written about this civilisational scandal here and on several other occasions.

The Jerusalem Post is running a bare bones story; the court’s written judgment has not yet been released. But the implications of this victory are enormous. At the very least it means that it is no longer libellous in France to say what is plain to all who have studied this case and, most particularly, seen the footage that France 2 did not transmit and which it fought hard to prevent from ever seeing the light of day.

This was a blood libel which gave modern life to the ancient calumny that the Jews murder children, and which itself directly led to the murder of countless innocents. I shall be writing much more about this, particularly for the second issue of the new magazine Standpoint which launches next week.

Anyone who would believe a Pali is a 'maroon'. All honest folks have known this (and much more)was fake for quite some time now. Good to see the frogs are getting it.
