FOR THE ARAB SITE ‘SITA INSTITUTE’:
DJIHADISMS – TERRORISM – IMMIGRATION. WHEN THE MIDDLE EAST AGENDA IS IMPOSED IN EUROPE …
(English version)
The geopolitician Luc MICHEL answers the questions of the Arab Website SITA INSTITUTE (Lebanon) (*):
* SITA / Question:
A REPORT FROM A TELEVISION LEBANESE EVOCATES THE EXISTENCE OF A « BRUSSELSTAN », THAT IS TO SAY A SPACE OPEN TO TERRORISTS IN BELGIUM. IS IT TRUE ? OTHERWISE, WHAT ARE THE ROLE AND POSITION OF THE BELGIAN GOVERNMENT IN THIS MATTER?
Luc MICHEL:
Your question about a « Brusselstan » is exact, but not exact in the wording. There is behind all this the example of what has been called « Londonistan », that is, in the 1980s, that is at the beginning of the Western engagement, where the Canadians and the British played a big role near the Americans, against the Soviets and the People’s Republic of Afghanistan, in this war of Afghanistan which saw the alignment of jihadism with a certain Bin Laden, the Pakistani Wahhabis, Saudi, etc. with the Westerners to defeat the Soviets. London was then turned into the capital of Islamism, the backbone of jihadism. This is exactly what a British author in a resounding book called « Londonistan ». This « Londonistan », it existed from the years 1980 to the years 2002-200, when obviously after the attacks of September 11, the British at the instigation of the Bush II regime changed their way of seeing. Change is very cosmetic, since all radical Islamist structures have remained in place, radicalized mosques, teaching centers. And because the collaboration with the jihadists continued behind a facade of « fight against terrorism » once more. It continued in particular, as the attack in Birmingham, the Libyan Islamists in fight against Gaddafi. It continued as soon as the so-called « Arab Spring » was prepared, since the jihadists were mobilized against all secular, Arab nationalist regimes, including Tunisian, Egyptian, Algerian, Libyan, and also especially against Syria. ba’athist.
So this London has inspired further analysis on the existence of similar back bases and Belgium plays a leading role in all of this. Not with a so-called « Brusselstan », but with three cities, which are the basis of jihadism not only Belgian but West European. These are to start the cities of Verviers, Charleroi. Verviers and Charleroi are two large ex-industrial cities in Wallonia, which have been ruined by globalization, where there is a very high rate of both immigration and unemployment. The third center of course, which is now known worldwide, is the famous municipality of Molenbeek, one of the 19 municipalities of the Brussels-Capital region, Molenbeek which is truly the epicenter of Belgian and West European jihadism. , with relays including the attentas that took place in Paris in 2015.
* SITA / QUESTION:
BUT BEHIND ALL, WHY BELGIUM?
Luc MICHEL:
This can be explained for two reasons.
First of all because at the beginning of the nineties, when the immigration of Arab origin was sending integration to Belgium, and these Arabs became citizens like the others, we have for reasons, which are financial and probably related to the great corruption that is typical of the life of the major Belgian political parties, entrusted the Mosques of Belgium to Saudi Arabia. That is to say, the foxes were asked to keep the chickens, the Saudis brought Wahhabi imams, began to develop their radical ideology. Who, let us remember, is the ideological matrix of all jihadisms, be they those of Al-Qaida, Bin Laden or Daesh. Behind all that is the big mistake of Belgium. In 2018, we are only trying to put an end to it, since at the end of a great scandal which is particularly linked to the arrival of terrorism in Western Europe, Saudi Arabia is preparing to hand over the management of its mosques to Belgium. Who does not know it must be said, let’s talk honestly, what to do! See also the similar mistakes of the regime of Sarkozy and Holland, who have entrusted the Mosques of the Paris suburbs and Marseille to Qatar, another Wahhabi power, another sponsor of terrorism.
There is a second thing that obviously explains the development of this radical Islam, it is the links existing between the Belgian Christian Democracy, the German Christian Democracy and the AKP, that is to say the conservative Islamists who are the third sponsor of terrorism, those of Erdogan in Turkey. For more than 15 years there have been close links between Christian Democracy, that is to say, Catholic conservatism, and Erdogan’s AKP, that is Muslim conservatism. The AKP has even obtained an observer status within the famous European People’s Party, which is the transnational structure, particularly at the level of the European Parliament, which unites all the parties of Christian democracy. Why Belgium but also Germany? Simply because these are two countries where Christian Democracy is powerful or has been. In Belgium, she was the main force of government since the 30s until the 2010 elections, where she took an electoral jacket. And so structures, relays exist. The Turkish communities have been left to be taken over by Erdogan’s AKP and their accomplices, which is a far-right Turkish organization, called the « gray wolves », which are a mixture of ultra-nationalism and Islamic conservatism.
The Turkish community in Belgium, which was even more assimilated than the Moroccan community, began to form ghettos. There is also a weight in Belgium and Germany, which is obviously that of Turkish immigration. A commune like Saint-Josse, which is one of the 19 communes of Brussels-Capital, has a burgomaster of Turkish origin and has even had a minister in the Brussels-based government of social-democratic origin called Emir Kir. The « gray wolves », the AKP are at home in Belgium, Erdogan could even organize meetings, manipulate the population. Erdogan’s AKP, moreover, was able to develop contacts not only with Christian democracy, but as I explained to you with the Belgian social democracy, that of the PS or the SP.
That’s why today, of course, in Verviers, Charleroi or Molenbeek we can not talk about a « Brusselstan » but a « Belgistan », Belgistan is also the name of Belgium in Turkish …
* SITA / Question:
WHAT IS THE BECOME OF THE « DUBLIN CONVENTION »? WILL IT BE RENEGOCIATED AND MODIFIED? EU STATES AGREE ON REFUGEES AND PROBLEMS OF IMMIGRATION?
Luc MICHEL:
The question of the Dublin Convention, which was concluded in 1990, and which was replaced in 2003 by the so-called « Dublin II », is a convention which aims to organize the Convention of the European Geneva on refugees. From 2003 it was extended not only to the countries of the European Union, and of course to that part of the EU which forms a hard core security and is what is called the Shengen Space, but it has It has also been extended to countries outside the EU, such as Switzerland, Finland or Norway.
What is the Dublin II principle? Or Dublin 1990? It is that the refugee makes his request to be accepted as a political refugee in only one country and that this country is that of his arrival. That’s why Shengen, for example, insists particularly, even for short visit visas or 3-month tourism, so that when you get a Shengen visa your arrival is done well in the country in the country that granted it. . I had the opportunity during a trip to Kiev in the winter of 2003, which I had done by coach Euroline, to see this aspect of Shengen on the border between Germany and Austria, where we had stopped many Ukrainian travelers who were in my bus. We treated them despicably. I personally protested against a lieutenant of the German Grenzshutz Polizei, reminding him that in 1945 it was they who had lost the war and not the Soviets or Ukrainians. But these people were reproached with French Shengen visas for being on a bus to Brussels, they were disembarked and they could not resume their journey …
The renegotiation today of Dublin II is important since immigration today is a central issue in the European Union, I will explain then. And by what is obviously a wild immigration, which comes by land routes from Syria and the Middle East or by sea from Africa, from the coast mainly from Libya or Morocco. And this immigration, it is obviously still to the same countries, that is to say, mainly Spain, Greece, and even more obviously Italy, with the famous island of Lampedusa off the coast of Sicily. They can bear no more, they bear the whole load, and they are sent back to them every year for refugees who have returned there. This is the renegotiation of Dublin II.
* SITA / Question:
BEHIND ALL, IS THE FACT THAT IMMIGRATION HAS BECOME A CENTRAL ISSUE IN THE EU?
Luc MICHEL:
Yes ! But first of all, how did all this happen? It is an American operation, which is supported in particular by what are called the « legal windows of the CIA », these state agencies financed from the budget of the American state, which themselves organize a galaxy of NGOs. Also supported also by the networks of George Sorös, who took a prominent part in promoting this wild immigration to Europe. All of this, of course, is an instrument that the Americans developed on the sidelines of their wars in the Middle East and in Africa, to « break » Europe, to divide it deeply, you know that there is a fundamental internal contradiction within of the Western Bloc-Americano.
This is the « internal contradiction » of this Bloc, to speak in Marxist-Leninist terms, which explains it very well: the main geopolitical, military, and diplomatic ally of the United States, that is to say, the countries of the European Union, gathered in NATO, is also the economic and financial adversary, monetary, US! There has been a trade war between the United States and the European Union since the early 1980s and there is a huge monetary war between the dollar and the euro. On the one hand we have the supranational structures of the EU in economic and financial matters, and on the other we have the supranational structures of NATO. NATO is not the « shield of Europe », but remember, as the great geopolitician Jean Thiriart said in the 60s, « NATO is the harness of Europe », a harness is what serves to maintain a draft animal, which makes its power of work in the service of his master. That’s what NATO is for Americans, it’s the second lung of America, and we do not understand the American superpower if we do not understand that it’s based on two pillars: the North Pillar. American and precisely the second pillar of Western Europe. Review the works of the geopolitician Jean Thiriart, or the one that seems to be the negative, the « big chessboard » of Zbigniew Brzezinski.
What has obviously changed with this instrumentalisation of immigration is that immigration has become a central theme in European politics. We understand better at this time, for example, the huge clash between the billionaire George Sorös, an immense politico-media power with his fortune of 34 billion dollars. Compare that with Trump’s fortune, which weighs between $ 2 billion and $ 3 billion, Sorös once said with a sarcastic tone that « Trump was a poor man » … There is a tussle now between the country that is at the forefront in the European Union against the acceptance of immigrants, the Hungary of Victor Orban, and Sorös, this former Hungarian refugee turned American citizen, who has the center of his education system with his University of the Society open in Budapest. George Sorös is a Hungarian immigrant who fled anti-Semitic Europe in 1944.
This standoff has of course nothing to do with anti-Semitism, but everything to do with this immigration. A few days ago, France24 was interviewed by the Hungarian Minister of the Interior, accusing him of an « anti-Semitic campaign against Sorös ». France 24 did not explain that in this so-called « anti-Semitic campaign », Orban was allied with Netanyahu’s Likud, who went to Hungary to support Orban and who took exactly the Hungarian way a legislative package to prevent Soros from once again, to finance anti-Hungarian NGOs in Hungary, but to fund anti-Israeli NGOs in israel. You know that Israel is also subject to this great problem of immigration from Africa, that it deals, because the Israelis can afford everything in this area, with a xenophobic ultra-racism, that we do not would not dare to use in Europe.
Immigration has become a central theme. This theme, which was marginal, but which allowed far-right parties, including the National Front of Le Pen to emerge, was put because of this issue of wild immigration for 2 years, the heart themes of electoral campaigns, the French Presidential for example. Merkel’s campaign in Germany, despite his victory in the elections and the defeat of the Social Democrats of the SPD, to make with them a « grand coalition », where the SPD defeated in the polls is the winner in the government, because that there is the big rise of a xenophobic and racist party, which is the AFD. It is the same problem everywhere in Europe and it is this central position of immigration in the electoral debate and in the possible or probable electoral defeat of the great leaders of the West-European policy which explains you the inevitable renegotiation of Dublin II .
