Racism in France is still very alive

On Monday, March 19, a man opened fire in front of a Jewis school in the southern city of Toulouse and killed a man and his two sons. Another child has also died. They were just entering their school when a man on a motorbike and a helmet that hid his face is the killer. A video camera showed the motorbike and the man shooting but not his face. It is a tragedy that followed two other similar cases that happened in the area. Three soldiers were shot dead in the streets of a neighboring city. And this happened while France is in presidential campaign. All candidates went to Toulouse to pay their respect to the dead and to the Jewish community who is shocked by the terrible event. For me the fact that the president and his minister of interior as well as various politicians from the ruling party have been talking about immigration and the fact that the country should close its borders to stop the flow of immigrants is responsible for the killings. Jewish French as French indeed but once a high level politician speaks about immigrants in a racist way there is no limit to hate and anti-immigrant and anti-antisemitism. One cannot play with people because they are different or because they have different religion or skin color. It is a little bit like Pandora's box. Once you open it you don't know what you will get from it. And it is not a coincidence that three US medias, amongst which Time Magazine and the New York Times said in recent articles that French president is xenophobic. And they are right. So for the sake of differences in France, let get rid of him and his party.

French Elections

French elections are only two months away and nothing is sure. Candidates are too close to each other to have a clear idea of who will win. But I hope that Hollande will get us rid of the racist who is president. He is incompetent and liar. I wonder how a so unpopular person can still attract voters? It is time to have someone normal who can bring some hopes to the French. They are in a horrible economical situation and the future is all but bright. Something has to change and to improve. First the government and the people who take good decisions. It is so terrible to live in such a country where Arabs and Blacks are again the sole responsible for the situation. I hope that the result will be the one I am hoping for: the win of François Hollande. Let's hope.
