«No ignoro, por supuesto, que Dios ha muerto desde que Nietzsche lo dijera: pero creo en las virtudes de un espiritualismo ateo frente a la apatía y a la resignación contemporáneas —algo así como un libertinaje austero para épocas de catástrofe. Tampoco creo en el Hombre y quisiera repetir junto con mis sanos maestros que él está en trance de desaparecer del escenario del pensamiento: pero creo simplemente que sin determinada idea del Hombre, el Estado se apresurará a ceder a los vértigos del fascismo vulgar. No otorgo el menor crédito teórico a lo que los marxistas llaman libertades formales: pero prácticamente, aquí y ahora, no veo cómo negarles el fabuloso poder de instituir y preservar una división de la sociedad, de oponer un dique, por consiguiente, a la tentación bárbara. Vale decir que nos encontramos en la turbadora posición de ya no poder contar, para zanjar una cuestión política, con otra cosa que las herramientas más frágiles e inseguras. Ya es hora, acaso, de escribir tratados de moral. »

Writers from around the globe including Lee Child (creator of Jack Reacher), Bernard Henri-Lévy (Philosopher and Author), Herta Müller (Author, Poet, and Nobel Prize Award Winner), Sir Simon Schama (Historian and Author), Howard Jacobson (Booker Prize-winning Author), Simon Sebag Montefiore (Historian and Author), Adam Gopnik (Writer), Yossi Klein Halevi (Author), David Mamet (Author & Pulitzer Prize Winner), Elfriede Jelinek (Author and Nobel Prize Award Winner), join entertainment leaders, Mayim Bialik, Debra Messing, Julianna Margulies, Scooter Braun, Haim Saban, Ynon Kreiz, Ozzy Osbourne, and Gene Simmons amongst many others, to reject boycotts against authors and literary institutions.

LOS ANGELES (October 30, 2024) — More than 1000 leaders from the literary and entertainment industry signed an open letter released by the non-profit entertainment industry organization Creative Community For Peace (CCFP) in support of freedom of expression and against discriminatory boycotts.

The letter comes in response to continued efforts to boycott, harass, and scapegoat Jewish and Israeli authors and literary institutions. Among the signatories are Nobel laureates, Pulitzer Prize winners, and Booker Prize winners.

Booker Prize-winning author, Howard Jacobson said: “Art is the antithesis to a political party. It is a meeting place not an echo chamber. Art explores, discovers, differs, questions and surprises. Precisely where a door should be forever open, the boycotters slam it closed.”

Recent calls to boycott Israeli literary institutions follow a year filled with efforts to demonize and ostracize Jewish authors across the globe. In the last year, bookstore appearances have been canceled based on authors’ identities and book readings have been shut down. Activists have publicized lists of “Zionist” authors to harass and just last week, ads for a book with ‘Israel’ in the title were rejected.

Author of the Jack Reacher novel series, Lee Child said: “Politically targeting novelists, authors, and publishing houses based on their nationality is misguided. At a time when dialogue is paramount and when compromise can lead to peace, castigation and blanket boycotts are counterproductive. The written word, and the dissemination of it, must always be protected, especially in times of heightened tension. And to achieve peace, we must humanize one another and build bridges across communities through the open exchange of ideas. Literature allows for that. Boycotts hinder it.”

The letter highlights the unique role that writers and books play in society, “We believe that writers, authors, and books — along with the festivals that showcase them — bring people together, transcend boundaries, broaden awareness, open dialogue, and can affect positive change.” It continues, “We believe that anyone who works to subvert this spirit merely adds yet another roadblock to freedom, justice, equality, and peace that we all desperately desire.”

Actress and Author Mayim Bialik said, “Harassing authors, canceling bookstore appearances, and boycotting people based solely on their identity is disturbing and polarizing in ways that cannot be dismissed or minimized. Attempts to dictate “who” or “what” should be published have nothing to do with any path to coexistence or peace. This kind of rhetoric encourages demonization and hatred. As an author and as a creative, I believe in peace, I believe in humanity, and I believe in meaningful discourse. Silencing and sowing discord in this way reduces complex individuals to oversimplified caricatures which only hardens existing hostility and makes the hope for peace inch farther away.”

Philosopher and Author Bernard-Henri Lévy said: “I have always believed in the power of ideas and truth. I have always been in favor of debate, clash of opinions, even the confrontation of convictions. But what we have here is not a clash of opinions or a debate. Boycotting Israeli writers, publishers and festivals is pure anti-Semitism – and it’s anti-democratic and dangerous. The goal of this boycott is the delegitimization of the only Jewish state in the world—Israel. It is a moral obscenity and must be firmly condemned by all free-thinking and democratic citizens of the world.”

Author and historian Simon Sebag Montefiore said: “The resort to witch hunt is always dangerous and ugly especially when the inquisitors are writers. History is full of examples of self-righteous cadres of self-appointed judges who tried to enforce their version of purity by excluding people. Whatever one thinks of this tragic Middle Eastern war, who judges who is good, who bad? Once started where would it stop? Who is pure enough?”

The statement is the first of its kind – a call from the literature and entertainment community to unequivocally voice support against boycott attempts based on identity or litmus test.

The letter states: “Regardless of one’s views on the current conflict, boycotts of creatives and creative institutions simply create more divisiveness and foment further hatred.” The letter concludes: “We call on our friends and colleagues worldwide to join us in expressing their support for Israeli and Jewish publishers, authors, and all book festivals, publishers, and literary agencies that refuse to capitulate to censorship based on identity or litmus tests.”

CCFP Executive Director Ari Ingel said, “Authors, writers, and literary groups have faced non-stop harassment by a dedicated group of illiberal activists since October 7th. This is not just about Israeli authors. This is a coordinated campaign to bully and threaten anyone who refuses to condemn Israel, which targets Jews and their allies worldwide. These boycott calls, now being led by members of the literary community themselves, are reminiscent of the 1933 boycott of Jewish authors, when antisemites burned over 25,000 books. The works of Jewish authors like Albert Einstein and Sigmund Freud, alongside American works by Ernest Hemingway and Helen Keller were burned. This is where things are once again headed.”

Precisely the same logic applies to Israel’s other conflicts, above all with Hezbollah. The brilliance of the pager/walkie-talkie strike in Lebanon has done more to restore Israel’s regional reputation than 11 months of relative restraint and tit-for-tat reprisals against enemies to the north. A similar lesson will also have to be given to the Houthis, especially since the Biden administration seems incapable of doing so. “Who Dares, Wins,” the motto (borrowed from the British) of Israel’s special forces, should be the motto for the Jewish state as a whole. The path out of loneliness is always a path of action.

What about American Jews?

The resurgence of anti-Semitism in the United States has begun to force a fundamental rethink of the way in which at least some American Jews contemplate their place in society: I call them “October 8 Jews”—those who woke up the day after the attack with a clear understanding of who our friends are not. Those Jews include the donors who revolted at the idea of continuing to give money to Harvard, Penn, Brown, or Columbia; who are investing heavily in new educational institutions that adhere to classically liberal values; who are calling out the DEI/anti-racism com- plex for being the anti-Semitism incubator that it is; who are breaking out of the stale orthodoxies of traditional media; who are investing all of their philanthropic energies in strengthening Jewish life.

They are the vanguard, but we are only at the beginning. So many institutions in American life that were once welcoming places for American Jews have turned bad: elite private schools; human-rights organizations; the literary world; social work; Mideast-studies departments; public-school curriculums—the list is long. In every one of these fields or institutions, October 8 Jews have a clear choice: Reject, reform, or reinvent them. What’s no longer possible is to pretend that what we have now is acceptable, or that indifference and inaction are viable options.

Just as the Bush administration spoke of a “whole of government effort” after September 11, 2001, we need a “whole of American Jewry” effort after October 7: to make high-quality Jewish day-school education available and affordable to every Jewish family that wants one; to cut off all giving to colleges and universities that are hostile to open and vibrant Jewish life and Zionist expression; to create a new ecosystem of literary prizes, faculty chairs, “genius awards,” and grants that reward and celebrate true merit; to fund and tell stories on large and small screens that richly and empathically explore the Jewish experience; to deepen American ties to Israel through corporate and academic partnerships; to expose and shut down the opaque and potentially illicit networks that fund and support the anti-Israel student protests.

This is a partial list, but you get the point. If we don’t want to wind up alone, we cannot afford to stand still, think small, or look back. The questions are no longer “Who betrayed us?” or “Why is the world this way?” They are “What do we do now?” and “How soon can we get it done?”

Israel and the Jewish people aren’t alone—yet. Ensuring that we never wind up alone is going to take courage, work, nerve. And a demand for respect.

oros et Netanyahou, même «objectif final»: «achever la destruction des nations par une grande guerre nucléaire–Youssef Hindi

«Le projet de Nouvel ordre mondial et le projet messianique juif sioniste convergent», explique (https://x.com/DubreuilhMarcel/status/1723649172631429498) l'essayiste.

L'objectif est de «détruire les valeurs traditionnelles, les nations, transférer la souveraineté nationale vers des organisations supra-étatiques comme, en Europe.»

A la suite de quoi, la seule nation au monde qui aura droit à des frontières et à un régime traditionnel, sera Israël, en conclut Hindi.

C'est ce qui explique le double discours des Bernard-Henri Lévy et Jacques Attali, qui sont contre les nations partout dans le monde… sauf en Israël.

Jared Kushner: 'There is no going back for Israel'

September 27th is the most important day in the Middle East since the Abraham Accords breakthrough.

I have spent countless hours studying Hezbollah and there is not an expert on earth who thought that what Israel has done to decapitate and degrade them was possible.

This is significant because Iran is now fully exposed. The reason why their nuclear facilities have not been destroyed, despite weak air defense systems, is because Hezbollah has been a loaded gun pointed at Israel. Iran spent the last forty years building this capability as its deterrent.

President Trump would often say, “Iran has never won a war but never lost a negotiation.” The Islamic Republic’s regime is much tougher when risking Hamas, Hezbollah, Syrian and Houthi lives than when risking their own. Their foolish efforts to assassinate President Trump and hack his campaign reek of desperation and are hardening a large coalition against them.

Iranian leadership is stuck in the old Middle East, while their neighbors in the GCC are sprinting toward the future by investing in their populations and infrastructure. They are becoming dynamic magnets for talent and investment while Iran falls further behind. As the Iranian proxies and threats dissipate, regional security and prosperity will rise for Christians, Muslims and Jews alike.

Israel now finds itself with the threat from Gaza mostly neutralized and the opportunity to neutralize Hezbollah in the north. It’s unfortunate how we got here but maybe there can be a silver lining in the end.

Anyone who has been calling for a ceasefire in the North is wrong. There is no going back for Israel. They cannot afford now to not finish the job and completely dismantle the arsenal that has been aimed at them. They will never get another chance.

After the brilliant, rapid-fire tactical successes of the pagers, radios, and targeting of leadership, Hezbollah’s massive weapon cache is unguarded and unmanned. Most of Hezbollah fighters are hiding in their tunnels. Anyone still around was not important enough to carry a pager or be invited to a leadership meeting. Iran is reeling, as well, insecure and unsure how deeply its own intelligence has been penetrated. Failing to take full advantage of this opportunity to neutralize the threat is irresponsible.

I have been hearing some amazing stories about how Israel has been collecting intelligence over the past 10 months with some brilliant technology and crowdsourcing initiatives.

But today, with the confirmed killing of Nasrallah and at least 16 top commanders eliminated in just nine days, was the first day I started thinking about a Middle East without Iran’s fully loaded arsenal aimed at Israel. So many more positive outcomes are possible.

This is a moment to stand behind the peace-seeking nation of Israel and the large portion of the Lebanese who have been plagued by Hezbollah and who want to return to the times when their country was thriving, and Beirut a cosmopolitan city. The main issue between Lebanon and Israel is Iran; otherwise there is a lot of benefit for the people of both countries from working together.

The right move now for America would be to tell Israel to finish the job. It’s long overdue. And it’s not only Israel’s fight.

More than 40 years ago, Hezbollah killed 241 US military personnel, including 220 Marines. That remains the single deadliest day for the U.S. Marine Corps since the Battle of Iwo Jima. Later that same day, Hezbollah killed 58 French paratroopers.

And now, over the past six weeks or so, Israel has eliminated as many terrorists on the US list of wanted terrorists as the US has done in the last 20 years. Including Ibrahim Aqil, the leader of Hezbollah’s Islamic Jihad Organization who masterminded the 1983 killing of those Marines.

The philosopher Bernard-Henri Lévy wrote on X, “I keep reading everywhere that Lebanon is 'on the brink of collapse.' No. It is on the brink of relief and deliverance.”

Moments like this come once in a generation, if they even come at all.

The Middle East is too often a solid where little changes. Today, it is a liquid and the ability to reshape is unlimited. Do not squander this moment.

Let’s all pray for success, for peace and for the good judgement of our leaders.

Ça c’est Raphaël Glucksmann

Raphaël c’est avant tout un héritage, fils du philosophe André Glucksmann, il grandit dans le confort d’une famille aisée dans un milieu d’intellectuels de gauche. Son père sera notamment signataire d’une pétition sur la dépénalisation des rapports majeurs/mineurs.

Raphaël c’est une formation élitiste, après un passage au lycée Lamartine, il est en classe préparatoire au lycée Henri IV.

Raphaël c’est le coeur sur la main, il fonde Études sans frontières avec l’aide de son papa pour permettre à des jeunes tchétchènes d’étudier en France, il réalise un documentaire sur le génocide des Tutsis où la responsabilité de la France est selon lui exclusive, puis un autre sur la révolution orange en Ukraine.

Raphaël c’est les relations, il arpente le monde à la recherche de causes à défendre, il traîne ainsi ses savates en Géorgie, après que Bernard Henri-Lévy grand ami de son père et de sa famille lui arrange le coup, il ouvrira à Tbilissi une « Maison de l’Europe » et devient conseiller du président Saakachvili.

Raphaël c’est aussi le besoin de briller, lors de l’intervention russe en Géorgie en 2008, il se considère comme seul intermédiaire entre Nicolas Sarkozy et Vladimir Poutine, en réalité il ne servira strictement à rien.

Raphaël c’est le mondialisme, se disant issu d’un milieu « mondialisé » il fera en sorte d’apporter les joies du mondialo-nazisme en Géorgie à grands coups de tentatives d’adhésion à l’UE mais aussi à l’OTAN.

Raphaël c’est aussi le pacifisme, après avoir servi de manche à air en Géorgie, il va en Ukraine, nouveau terrain qui va lui permettre de se nourrir. Il va alors conseiller « gratuitement » Vitali Klitschko à grands coups d’européisme et d’atlantisme. Il se décrit alors comme « conseiller en révolution » il ne servira là encore, à rien.

Raphaël c’est la défense des opprimés mais avec sélection, il prend fait et cause pour les Ouïghours massacrés par le pouvoir chinois. Il est en revanche muet sur le cas des Palestiniens qui se font massacrer depuis 75 ans.

Raphaël c’est aussi l’engagement, il s’engage auprès de Génération.s le mouvement de son ami Benoît Hamon, puis participe au lancement de Place Publique, il parvient en 2019 à se faire élire comme député européen et apporte son soutien à la NUPES en 2022.

Raphaël c’est l’homme de l’arrière, grand ami de Zelensky, il veut plus de soutien pour l’Ukraine, avec des déploiements si nécessaire mais sa géniale cervelle doit être utile à l’arrière, le front c’est pour les gueux.

Raphaël c’est le petit père des immigrés, il est favorable à une immigration de travail, ainsi on envoie des ONG chercher des noirs dans des villages avant d’entasser ces malheureux dans des bateaux pour qu’ils aillent booster le capital chez des patrons véreux. Un peu de traite négrière ne fait jamais de mal.

Raphaël c’est aussi le pourfendeur de souveraineté, ainsi il ne faut plus raisonner en termes de visas, mais d’aller-retours entre les pays.

Raphaël c’est le parfait exemple de la crapule du système et du WEF, anti-France, il ne ressent rien pour ce pays sinon au mieux de l’indifférence au pire du mépris.

Raphaël, les identités doivent être détruites.

Raphaël vous plongera dans son enfer.
