Against Islamophobia, popular self-defense! (fr, it, pt) [machine
translation]

Here we relay the call to protest against Islamophobia ---- Sunday, january 18 at 14h ---- 
Fountain of innocent (m ? ch?telet) ---- The group CGA - Paris region will participate in 
this mobilization. ---- We strongly condemn Islamophobia seems to be regarded more and 
more as one of the pillars of the Republican consensus, which is shared from a part of the 
so-called radical left up 'fascist. We share the text the need for a popular response, 
anti-fascist face danger that this form of racism can be for Muslims or assigned to the 
Muslim religion and we also uphold the popular self defense perspective that is 
emphasized. ---- On Wednesday, January 7, the offices of Charlie Hebdo were attacked, the 
shooting caused the death of 12 people. Two days later, an attack in a kosher butcher took 
place, a real anti-Semitic acts that we condemn. We will never condone the despicable 
actions of those who claim to act in the name of Islam but who truly behave like a cult, 
seeking only to Muslims face a situation of oppression that push them to make the choice 
between "national unity" and join their movement.

However, we will not fall into the blind support to this newspaper because we do not 
forget that he helped to accentuate the room Islamophobia in France in recent years in the 
name of some 'freedom of expression. "This" freedom of expression "for challenging the 
weakest socially and thus reinforce the feeling of oppression of Muslims.

We will not respond to calls for "national unity" behind the imperialists and repressive 
governments, primarily responsible for the situation, having sown the war and chaos in the 
world with their military interventions.

Calls not to amalgam are futile and "national unity" released more Islamophobia. We 
denounce the proliferation of Islamophobic acts mosques attacks, assaults veiled women, 
called the "death of the Arabs". This climate also strengthens stigmatization of 
neighborhoods with the repression of young people in schools, the call to the 
militarization of neighborhoods. The proliferation of police checks creates in our 
brothers and sisters undocumented a climate of terror.

Riding on the climate, small group Riposte Lay, near the Bloc Identity organizes a 
gathering wishing "the expulsion of all the Islamists in France". Due to the participants 
that Islamophobia can be observed connects the identity movement to the Zionist movement 
since the JDL (Jewish Defense League) will be present as well as independent hooligans Of 
Boulogne Kop, self-proclaimed anti-Salafi hooligans. This gathering represents the 
beginning of a national process which will be grafted all political and identity 
organizations whose spearhead is characterized by the spread of an anti-Islam hate.

That is why we, fascist and / or Muslims, believers or not, we want to bring to refuse 
Islamophobia. It comes from institutional parties from Republican left to extreme right 
(municipal employees of stigma Muslim mosque site blocking etc.) or state such as 
anti-veil law school, and the the niqab.
