| 09:18 | | This is present-day France! And we’re going back, you see, |
| 09:22 | | back to the two words of François Hollande: “the partition” |
| 09:26 | | He’s right, François. Yes. You laugh, but he’s right. |
| 09:30 | | He’s lucid. The problem is that he is powerless. But he is lucid. |
| 09:34 | | You know that’s what it is: the great modern tragedy. |
| 09:38 | | It’s not the stupidity of the great modern tragedy. It’s the lack of will, |
| 09:42 | | the lack of, of… The inability to act. |
| 09:46 | | And you therefore have |
| 09:50 | | INVASION, COLONIZATION and CONFLAGRATION. |
| 09:55 | | The attacks, they happen like that, you’re under the impression that it |
| 09:59 | | falls from the sky. I’ll explain. I listened to a — |
| 10:03 | | on the radio, I don’t know if you heard that, the commercial for |
| 10:07 | | “de-radicalization”. You have to die of laughter! |
| 10:11 | | You have to die of laughter. You’re under the impression |
| 10:15 | | that [the jihadi] is a kid who believes in |
| 10:19 | | whatever, all the conspiracy theories, a poor, lost kid, |
| 10:23 | | and the parents are distraught. They f***ing take us for imbeciles! |
| 10:27 | | The word “Islam” isn’t mentioned a single time, obviously. |
| 10:31 | | It’s comical, in fact. They are rather funny. They invent concepts. |
| 10:35 | | “Radicalization”. Radicalization of what? Where? |
| 10:39 | | Where is it coming from? We don’t know. It fell from the sky, like that. |
| 10:43 | | It’s radicalization. So of course you have understood that |
| 10:47 | | the conflagration is born of the invasion and the colonization. |
| 10:51 | | Of course all those young people have to do is |
| 10:56 | | to read the Quran. They know what they have to do. |
| 11:00 | | The jihad is part of the Quranic instructions. |
| 11:04 | | And it was NEVER questioned by anybody. Not even |
| 11:08 | | most tolerant the most rational Muslim philosophers — |
| 11:12 | | such as Averroes! Even Averroes — who is quoted to us all the time — |
| 11:16 | | he defends the idea of jihad. |
| 11:20 | | Even the Sufis, you know that Muslim sect |
| 11:24 | | That is much more spiritualist, much less |
| 11:28 | | ritualistic than the others, doesn’t question the jihad. |
| 11:32 | | The jihad is an instruction from God. |
| 11:36 | | And like all the Quranic instructions, they are |
| 11:40 | | divine instructions, which have been given directly by God, |
| 11:44 | | and they didn’t pass through humans — unlike the Gospels or the Torah — |
| 11:48 | | and they [therefore] cannot be debated, unlike the Christian |
| 11:53 | | theology of the Talmud. Incidentally, Tariq Ramadan recognizes it himself: there is no |
| 11:57 | | “Islamic theology”. And for good reason: since it came directly [from God] and it has to be applied |
| 12:01 | | in a strict way. Therefore those young people are in no way |
| 12:05 | | “guilty” — as it’s being suggested — they are absolutely not imbeciles, |
| 12:09 | | [they aren’t “guilty”] of not knowing their own religion. On the contrary! |
| 12:13 | | They have a theological-political project called “Islam”. |
| 12:17 | | Voilà, that’s what it is: the terrorist attacks, |
| 12:21 | | it’s that: those people who — we are under impression — |
| 12:25 | | arrive just like that in Nice, or I read that |
| 12:29 | | he had a fight with his wife; they were in the middle of a divorce so he killed a hundred people. |
| 12:33 | | Jaw drop. If everybody |
| 12:37 | | who is getting divorced were to take a truck onto the Promenade des Anglais |
| 12:41 | | and kill eighty people, wow, that |
| 12:46 | | would be something, things would go to pot; it would be good for social security, |
| 12:50 | | but, well, other than that… They are screwing with us. |
| 12:54 | | They are telling us nonsense. Yes. |
| 12:58 | | So, you absolutely need to understand that there’s a logic, |
| 13:02 | | a civilizational, political and economic logic, |
| 13:06 | | that this situation that we are experiencing and will continue |
| 13:10 | | to experience didn’t fall from sky. Only voilà, today there are European peoples |
| 13:18 | | who have become conscious of this great danger. |
| 13:22 | | You know, usually in history it is the elites who guide their peoples. |
| 13:26 | | Here, however, we have the elites who switched to doing something else, |
| 13:30 | | who don’t want to guide their peoples any more, who don’t want to know them any longer, |
| 13:34 | | who are sort of in a their own world. |
| 13:38 | | You know, a great American sociologist, Christopher Lasch, |
| 13:42 | | has predicted that since the ’70s-’80s. He called it “the Revolt of the Elites”, |
| 13:47 | | which shows that there are very lucid people out there. And who can see what’s coming. |
| 13:51 | | So voilà: we are experiencing the Revolt of the Elites, and today |
| 13:55 | | the peoples are revolting against this Revolt of the Elites. |
| 13:59 | | There’s a terrible confrontation between the peoples |
| 14:03 | | and their elites, between the peoples and another people, brought in by the elites, |
| 14:07 | | who became mixed with those elites; you have certainly seen it. |
| 14:11 | | It’s very interesting today, I recommend that at every election you have a look |
| 14:15 | | at the social relations of the votes. |
| 14:19 | | It’s always the same. You always have the same |
| 14:23 | | social groups: you have invariably on one side |
| 14:27 | | the CSP+ [managers, and highly trained professionals], the children of immigration, the women |
| 14:31 | | from large cities, and then you have on the other side |
| 14:35 | | the popular class in the small towns, in rural America, |
| 14:39 | | in dilapidated English towns; you see, it’s always the same. |
| 14:44 | | Always. In reality you have a confrontation between two peoples. |
| 14:48 | | For now it’s only an electoral [confrontation]. |
| 14:52 | | That’s all I have to say about that. |
