France Turns On Israel: ‘Security Does Not Justify Massacre’
Conservative Post ^ | 8/4/14 | Ronak Kallainpur

PARIS: Israel’s right to security does not justify its actions in Gaza, French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said Monday, as he called for a political solution to be “imposed” by the international community.

“How many more deaths will it take to stop what must be called the carnage in Gaza?” Fabius said in a statement. “The tradition of friendship between Israel and France is an old one and Israel’s right to security is total, but this right does not justify the killing of children and the slaughter of civilians.”

The statement comes amid global outrage over an Israeli strike next to a U.N. school where ten people were killed, among them civilians who had been seeking refuge from the violence.

Fabius said Islamist group Hamas, the de facto rulers of Gaza, “clearly carries an overwhelming responsibility” for the conflict but that Israel was not justified in carrying out what U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon called “a criminal act” with the attack near the school.

“That is why we support and demand the establishment of a real cease-fire as proposed by Egypt and why we are ready, as French and Europeans, to contribute to it in a concrete way,” he said.

“It is also why a political solution is essential… and should in my opinion be imposed by the international community,” Fabius said.

More French chicken-sh!ttery. Why were trees planted along the Avenue des Champs-Élysées? Nazis preferred to march in the shade.

I wonder what the French will say when they finally have to suppress a home-country Islamic rebellion? I think they can do it, but it won’t be pretty.

France Turns On Israel: ‘Security Does Not Justify Massacre’

Pray tell... what justifies France's right to judge the actions of Israel?

Hey France, maybe Israel should just wave the white flag, they can come to you for advice since you know how to do it with such precision. Meanwhile, France, STFU OK..Hamas is playing you for fools, there is no “Massacre” many of these supposed dead people are not even dead, they move them from place to place

Why did the French plant so many trees along the Champs-Elysees?

Because Hamas likes to march in the shade...

I guess he didn’t see Shoebat’s video of purportedly 1500 Iragis systematically getting their heads blown off.

Hey Frenchy, why don’t you see if you can do something about that little dustup, wouldja?

Chickns**t. Merde de poulet.

Yup, Israel should bend over and be the mama like France did in WW-II.

Sorry, Froggies, ain’t gonna happen.

(Just for the record, I am of French background...yup, I’m a Kermit.)

How does he propose the international community impose this? Thru the UN that has condemned Israel but not Hamas? Should Israel just lay down and be occupied like the French did? Good luck with your ideas and proposals Fabius, I'm sure you will go far.

Ask Hamas - as soon as they decide they’ve had enough and stop lobbing rockets into Israel, it will stop.

A joke best told auf Deutsch:

Warum haben die Franzosen die Champs-Élysées mit Bäume gegrenzt?

So daß die Deutsche Soldaten im Schatten marschieren können!

France won’t bother to fight the jihadis. Somewhere they have vintage white flags stored for the occasion.

Seems the French had different views when they allowed their Indian forces to massacre the British soldiers after their surrender at Fort William Henry, who foolishly believed the frogs promise to protect their retreat to Fort Edward after the French took all the British soldiers ammunition. And then there was their peaceful French Revolution, and the St. Bartholomew Day massacre of the Huguenots. It seems the French are a little to involved in the massacre business to accuse anyone.

Technically, it's a British War Office joke translated, very effectively, into German...

If you look at French history their very capable of indiscriminate, blood thirsty, wholesale slaughter when they feel like it. Maybe they'll just right back at ya MoFo.
