Thread Name: BS: The Halimi Murder
Subject: RE: BS: The Halimi Murder
The French state has done FAR worse to Muslims than it ever did to Jews.
Currently that is of course true - but it shouldn't be forgotten the "the French state" of the time collaborated with the Germans in the expulsion to the death camps of an estimated 76,000 French Jews.


Look up the casualty figures for Algeria. FAR greater than the Jewish casualties of Vichy by any estimate.

But both Muslim and Jewish suffering under the French state is eclipsed by what they did to the part of the Congo they controlled after emulating Leopold's system.
