Joël Rubinfeld: “In Belgium, the Jews must again hide”

President of the Belgian League against Anti -Semitism, Joël Rubinfeld is concerned about the fate of the small Jewish community in Belgium (barely 30,000 people), at a time when anti -Semitism reigns in a uninhibited manner.

While this son of Holocaust survivors wanted to publish a column to pay tribute to the “righteous of our time” in the Belgian press. Similarly, the said tribune was refused by all newspapers.

« Marianne “and” Jewish tribune “publish it.

—————

During the tormented period. For example, the lonely of the Jews is a constant in history – a history of which October 7 opens a new chapter. For example, But believing them abandoned by all would be inaccurate.

During the Dreyfus affair, a handful joël rubinfeld: “in belgium, jews of Dreyfusards mobilized to defend the Jewish captain, unjustly condemned for betrayal. In addition, During the Second World War, just among nations saved Jews at the risk of their own lives. Nevertheless, With its just 1.834, Belgium occupies second place in Capita to the pantheon of humanity, behind the Netherlands.

However. In addition, there were few of them going up to fire, these women and men of honor that history will only salute once the embers turned off. However. Nevertheless, if we made a micro-handwalk today, most would probably say, with sincerity: “I would have been Dreyfusard at the end of the 19th century, resistant in 1940, and I would have hidden Jews in 1942”.

But do they really measure what such a commitment implies, to the test of fire?

In the event of fire. However, this translates into a trial at the assizes against Émile Zola, prosecuted by the joël rubinfeld: “in belgium, jews French government for having, on January 13, 1898, published his “I accuse!”. In addition, A trial in a climate of great violence. Therefore, which resonates singularly with the news: the anti -dédreyfusards invest the streets of the capital by the thousands, utter “death to the Jews!” And “to death Zola!” Break the windows of Jewish businesses. For example, and conspire, boycotted and threaten Zola – the police must escort him with each hearing exit to ensure his safety. However, A trial at the end of which Zola is sentenced to one year in prison – the maximum sentence. For example, The most famous of the Dreyfusards will finally escape the jails of the Republic by exile in London.

At the test of fire. Therefore, this means the sacrifice of 4,000 Belgian resistance fighters – executed or fell the weapon in hand during the Second World War – and the arrest joël rubinfeld: “in belgium, jews of more than 30,000 of them by the German occupier. However, The archives of Yad Vashem testify to hundreds of cases in Europe of just tortured. shot, hanged or dead in deportation in the Nazi camps.

Being on the right side of history cannot be decreed: it is won in the Fournaise of reality. And the showing show that we have been witnessing since October 7, 2023, forces us to the following observation: Bégaie history.

Mutatis Mutandis is today the Jewish state that replaces the Jewish captain on the accused’s bench. Transferred from Paris to Hague, the court is now planetary. The countless fake news from the “Ministry of Health of Gaza”-that is to say Hamas-are the accusing slips of the moment. forged by news of the news and obediently relayed by international press agencies and most of the media. So many loads brandished as ammunition by UN prosecutors. rights-of-the joël rubinfeld: “in belgium, jews homes who, swapping the toga for Keffieh, align with the bench of the public prosecutor to judge the one they have already condemned.

In Belgium, the Jews are not spared either.

In Brussels. we proclaim ourselves “anti -fascist city” while tolerating the anti -Zionist fascists who, every day that has passed since October 11, 2023, manifestly demonstrate in the capital of Europe. The first anniversary of the Pogroms of October 7 is celebrated in public place by calling for “burning the Jews”. We profane the monument of the righteous and the cobblestones of memory, in the name of Gaza. We occupy a building from the Free University of Brussels renamed by the name of a Palestinian terrorist. Additionally, we ransack the place, and we beat up the co -president of the Union of Jewish Students of Belgium on the University campus. We prohibit the arrival of the Israeli football team joël rubinfeld: “in belgium, jews to play the match between the Red Devils. We refuse in some schools, under pressure from parents of students, to participate in the commemoration of the Holocaust. Furthermore, We deploy the Palestinian flag to the balcony of town halls in the capital. and we hoist it on the roof of the siege of the Socialist Party. We make dance. during the school fair, nine -year -old schoolchildren all dressed in black and wearing a keffiieh, to the martial rhythm of the Arab song “my blood is Palestinian” – a chilling staging that recalls the images of the “scout camps” of Hamas in Gaza.

In Antwerp, we insult, we peelled and we violate religious Jews in the street. We refuse to rent a room at a Jewish school for its graduation ceremony. exciting from a “genocide which is currently taking place in Gaza”. We display “5 Jews” on the bowling screen joël rubinfeld: “in belgium, jews where five young Jews entertain. We search the home of rabbis practicing circumcision. Moreover, we capture the instruments allowing them to practice this three -year Jewish tradition, and they are required to give the judicial authorities the list of circumcised children in recent years. We meet on November 9-commemorative day of the crystal night-in a park notoriously frequented by Jewish families. to “mutilate each Zionist”.

In Ghent. we vote for the boycott of Jewish state companies and the federal authorities are urged to do the same. We banish Israeli athletes in the European Frisbee European Championship for those under 17. Also, We cancel the official ceremony commemorating the Kristallnacht out of fear of incidents. We occupy the campus of the University of Ghent. we attack staff members, and we celebrate the rupture of relations with Israeli universities – a rupture which consecrates the capitulation of the academic authorities. In addition, joël rubinfeld: “in belgium, jews We acquit the columnist who. in the columns of one of the main weekly in the country, confesses his “desire to drive a pointed knife in the throat of each Jewish Jew [qu’il] encounter “.

In the kingdom. Jewish cemeteries are desecrated, tombs covered with swastika and David stars torn from their burials, while hordes of contemporary anti -Semites beat the pavement of the metropolises by vocifying the slogan 2.0 of the final solution and by glorifying the protagonists of the pogroms of October 7. Since then, anti -Semitic acts have been counted by the hundreds.

Result: Jewish Belgians must again hide. They change their names on their Uber account. withdraw the Mezouza from the Chambranle from their door, cover their kippah with a cap, modestly bother the top of their shirt to hide the star of David which they wear on the neck. In the last century, a yellow joël rubinfeld: “in belgium, jews star was stuck on the chest of the Jews to recognize them. Today, the Jews hide their star so as not to be recognized.

What is happening in Belgium speaks for most Western nations where. today as yesterday, the resistance fighters are rare while the collaborators of our time proliferate in the political sphere, the editorial rooms, the judicial bodies, the academic world, the artistic circles, the associative circles, and even in our streets where the so-called “pro-Palestinian” manifestations would be more in accordance Reality – Recall more and more the SA steps in Nuremberg.

“Where the danger grows, also grows what saves,” said the philosopher Friedrich Hölderlin.

In the expectation. I want to pay tribute to some of my Belgian compatriots or residents who, like Zola and the Righteous, are not Jewish and are among the Savings: Lucas Ablotia, Clémentine Barzin, Georges-Louis Bouchez, Maarten Boudry, André Brombart, Yves Caelen, joël rubinfeld: “in belgium, jews Anne Cremer, Georges Dallemagne, Nicolas de Pape, Corentin de Salle, Alain Destexhe, Boris Dilliès, Mia Doornaert, Denis Ducarme, Étienne Dujardin, Charlie Dupont, Samuel Furfari, Nadia Geerts, Drieu Godefridi, Luc Henrist, Merry Hermanus, Assita Kanko, Philippe Lamair, Fadila Maaroufi, Jean-Pierre Martin, Wall, Jean Quatremer, François Roelants du Vivier, Darya Safai, Ismaël Saidi, Marcel Sel, Sam Touzani, David Vandeputte and Alexandra Villers.

A non -exhaustive list of neighbors I would have wanted for my father when he was 13 years old. in Brussels, in 1942.
