Hello, my friends. In my home society, Algeria, and in its projections due to immigration to other countries such as France, I have noticed a certain number of incidents that I would like to group together under one category. I would like to put them in a special category that I would call social jihadism. So I will give you examples of social jihadism that we are experiencing here in Algeria, because it is important to know that in Algeria we had a kind of independence, a pseudo independence in 1962, which did not last very long, because collectively we had decided to respond, if you will, to the siren call of Islamism. This means that we wanted to give up our country in exchange for the promise of going to paradise.
Okay?
Even the scammers in Nigeria, I mean, have more elaborate scenarios.
Okay.
But for us, it didn't take more than that. So I'll give you some examples. I have a few short articles that I printed yesterday.
So you can read.
About being denied an exam because of a skirt that was too short. So this article is from May 18, 2015. So May 18 of this year. So it's an Algerian woman who didn't get the exam. In fact, the guards simply prevented her from going in to take her exams. Why? Because he saw her legs. He was probably sexually frustrated, probably aroused by her legs. And so what happened is that he forbade her from going through the door. Uh, the matter escalated a little. Officials arrived. And then, since the garage knows in the name of religion. Oh, well, he's the one who's right, you know. Ah. I mean, in Algeria, if, for example, we imagine that it's Ramadan, and then you take a can of Coca Cola, you open it, you drink it, and then a guy comes and hits you with a stick. In Muslim society, he's right.
Okay?
As long as he acts in the name of religion. He's right. And we get to cases, the most extreme cases, for example, we get to isis who sell little girls in huts in the name of religion. Right? Right. And there's no march, Right. Note that there's not even a march or a little march or three people at a roundabout with a sign, Right?
Okay.
Because as long as it's done in the name of religion, that's it. So the skirt in question, okay? That's the skirt in question, okay? That's the subject of the dispute. So that's on May 18th. So we have another story on August 8th, she was wearing shorts and was refused access to the polyclinic. So we have doctors who normally. Normally we can call them in to treat. I don't know. A pedophile. A pedophile who has just been arrested, who is in police custody. He bangs his head against a cupboard or something. A doctor is required to come and treat him, put a bandage on him. Without judgment, without anything at all.
Okay?
A pedophile? Yes. A woman? No. The subject of the dispute. I'll show you. Here is the woman in question. Here she is.
Okay.
This outfit. In the summer she was refused access to the polyclinic. This is in Orang, Western Algeria. Another one on August 16th. This woman is a journalist. She had a case at the Court of Algiers and they wouldn't let her in. They said she was wearing indecent clothing. In fact, what happens is that ideally, you know. Let me explain the theory of Islamism to you. Ideally, a woman doesn't wear a veil. If you say that a woman must wear a veil, you're completely wrong, okay? You're wrong. You're way off base. A woman doesn't wear a veil. A woman doesn't leave the house. Okay, that's the first point. How many times does she go out in her life? Ideally three times. When she's born, when she gets married, she goes from her parents house to her husband's house. And the third time she goes out is when she dies and is taken to her grave. It's not reasonable to bury her in the dining room. So what happens is that the woman doesn't go out. Now we know very well that life is what it is. She is forced to go out. And in extremely precarious cases, she is allowed to set foot outside. And in that case she must carry her bag with her. That means she must go out with the house around her. The veil. So that's the veil. The veil is not actually the veil. And if you like, and the symbolism of the woman locked up, it means the woman can only go out if she takes her cage with her a little bit. It's like imagining someone who is locked in a cage and he goes out, he puts his legs out and his hands out through the holes and he walks with the cage on his back. That's a bit like that.
Okay?
So that's what I call social jihadism. Because you have to know that with the atrocities of isis, the images of massacres, killings, rapes, things like that, which is happening a lot in Arab Muslim society or where they feel like they have wings. So some recognize this as pure authentic Islam and join it. We're arresting them every day, they're going to join. It means, as we say, Here they vote with their feet. It means by going out of their way to join these terrorist groups, they are clearly telling us that for them, this is true Islam. So what they do, they do what is called social jihadism. It means the guy stays put. He knows that it's now or never. He knows that it's happening. So what does he want? He wants to be part of it. He's making your life miserable. There you go. So it can be attacks like this one, small attacks, you know, small attacks that make people's lives miserable, okay? But which will cause them to moderate themselves through an extremely Pavlovian mechanism.
Okay?
So if you're constantly attacked and electrocuted, well, you're going to end up being treated like cattle, right? Who ends up following the tracks without ever going there, because they know that there are 20,000 volts and they're going towards what you know. So that's what we're going through. And little by little, okay, little by little. That was in 2015. That was in 2015, right. A few years ago, that didn't exist. Now it does. Today you don't wear the veil. So at the beginning, it was at the beginning, the first women who wore the veil, it was, oh, I'm free to wear it, you see? I am me. I like the veil, huh? Do you understand now? I'm reconnecting. I feel like I'm reconnecting with it. That was it, huh? At the beginning, that was it. Then there were the big brothers, huh? The big brothers. In their heads, excuse me, in their heads are their sisters, thighs, huh? Okay, that's it. I'm going to tell you. I'm going to tell you today I'm not very politically correct, huh? I feel that from the start. I feel that this video is going to overflow. But let me tell you, let me tell you quite frankly, uh, there are people who are extremely incestuous. Why? Because incestuous is not the guy who sleeps with his sister, for example. Yes, you sleep with your sister. That's incestuous. But where does incest start? Like everything else, it's like theft, for example.
Theft?
Yes. The moment you snatch the thing from the person and take it, that's theft. Of course. But the moment you covet the thing, the moment you plan to steal it, that's the moment. That's it. That's also theft. It's already started. So what happens is that for me, in my moral code. Excuse me, I'm sorry. In my moral code, from the moment you act in a time when you have a role in your sister's sexuality, whether you're the one holding the lamp or you're the one, you have a role as manager, administrator, regulator, facilitator, whatever, of your sister's or your mother's sexuality. Well, you're insulted. You don't know it. You're learning it today, I'm telling you. So I was telling you that then the Bib brothers arrived, and with a few strokes, you know, they managed to get a lot of women into these bags. And then what happens? There are a lot of women who arrive by force of circumstance, right? There are women who tell me, you know, I'm sick of being called a. And a female dog and a. And all that in the street, right? That's it. And I'm saying it, right? Excuse me, excuse me. That's the reality. That's the reality. And so what's happening is that I had to wear the veil because it allowed me to have peace.
Okay?
There you go. Now, in every city, on every street, there are three women who don't wear the veil, okay? Like this one or like this one, right? Or like this one, okay? And so since they are now the last. Since they are now the last, the poor ones, so what do they do, huh? How do these women feel? Well, they are a sort of minority that is almost disappearing, but they can no longer defend themselves. It's over. So now they are refused. They are denied care, they are refused to sell to them, they are refused to buy from them, they are refused to do business with them, they are refused access to an administration, they are refused everything. If they do not bear the mark of the beast, that's what happens. And so at that point, well, there you have it. So, my friends back home, we have reached the stage, you know, we have a guy, he said on Algerian television, a television not known for its extreme freedom of speech, right? That means that if a word is uttered on Algerian television, it is generally because, let's not say, pre authorized, but generally it is tolerated. We turn a blind eye to it. Well, that's okay. That's one of the things we can say in Algeria. He said that he would like to open an embassy for isis.
Okay?
That means he saw isis, he saw women as slaves. Because, in fact, it usually starts there, huh? I assure you, my friends, do not underestimate the Freudian side of the whole thing, huh? Otherwise, you will be completely off the mark, huh? So there are people who do readings, I don't know, geopolitics, I don't know What? But be careful, be careful. 90% of this story is about sex. There you go. Okay, so what's happening is that he said he saw what was happening, didn't he? So he saw the brothels with women being raped, 12 year old girls, 9 year old girls, 7 year old girls and so on, okay? Price tags, prices displayed on them. And he said, that's great, we would like you to do the same thing as our girls in Algeria, okay? And he said on TV that he would like to open an embassy for isis.
Okay, there you go.
There you go. Where we together. Our country was taken from us, you understand? I mean, I'm defending the west because my country, my country, I have no more hope. My country was taken from me, right? It's over, it's over. I mean, we had a kind of Algeria from 1962 until lets be nice, maybe the late 70s, early 80s. And from then on we, we. I was going to make an inappropriate gesture, but I mean, from then on we were okay, B. You understand, right? By the way, look at how massively we're leaving. If I had a country, I would have left one day. If I had left, I would have had a country. No, I would have stayed. I don't have a country. The fact that I'm leaving in practically desperate conditions, I'm voting with my worst friends saying I, I don't have a country. Huh? Okay, because you have a country, you stay in it and you shut up.
Okay?
So you understand? Anyone can come and tell me, Listen, Aldouserwan, if you had a country, you would have stayed. Well, I have to agree with him. I have to agree with him. But yes, he's right. The guy's right. He's right. Okay, I don't like it, but he's right. So that's how it is, you see? So now practically, uh, practically, we're naked, you know. Okay, so he's still on the right track. You're practically. I'll tell you, it was us during the years, let's say 70, okay? So I don't know how this is going to end. I assure you, I don't know how this is going to end. In any case, personally, I, I felt like I had joined, I mean, a continent of civilized people, evolved people, people who are perhaps aware of who they are, of their history, of their. I don't know, I felt like I was joining a civilization on the move. To put it simply. To put it simply, that's the impression I had. And then finally, no, I joined a raft that was sinking. That's all that's all so there you have it I assure you today if I could leave Europe if I had an easy plan B to deploy I assure you that I would have left Europe now well plan B's are never easy to deploy right do you understand Being here was already a plan B so it would be a plan C you understand Anyway what did I want me to tell you? What do you want me to tell you? Okay it's just to share what was on my mind today right that's it that's all I wanted to show you something look this is a serial post from 1991 okay at the time he you understand at the time the Arab countries were progressive they still hope to become something by the year 2000 understand today in the Syrian post you have to put a cage at the end you have to put in a cage put a price on it say how many women that would bring you anyway I'm going to leave I'm going to leave I'm going to stop mister.
