Nancy S., la fausse victime d’ #antisémitisme, condamnée à 30 mois de prison, dont 12 mois fermes
Nancy S. a été condamnée le 14 mai 2025 par le tribunal judiciaire de Paris à deux ans et demi de prison (30 mois), dont un an ferme (12 mois), pour dégradations à caractère antisémite et dénonciation mensongère.
Elle avait déposé 17 plaintes, accusant à tort des personnes, notamment des Maghrébins, d’avoir réalisé des #tags antisémites dans son immeuble du 11e arrondissement de Paris.
Les enquêtes ont révélé qu’elle et sa fille adoptive étaient les auteures des tags. Lors de son procès, Nancy S. a tenté d’accuser sa fille, mais le tribunal a retenu sa culpabilité. Elle est également sous contrôle judiciaire avec interdiction de paraître dans l’immeuble et obligation de soins.

Quotes
- Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.

Anyone who possessed dollars or sterling was king in Germany. A few American dollars would allow a man to live like a millionaire. Foreigners swarmed into the country, buying up family treasures, estates, jewelry and art works at unbelievable low prices.
- Lionel Robbins: It was the most colossal thing of its kind in history: and next probably to the Great War itself, it must bear responsibility for many of the political and economic difficulties of our generation.

« Le #sionisme, puis l’État d’Israël exigeront que les Palestiniens les reconnaissent en droit. Mais lui, l’État d’Israël, il ne cessera de nier le fait même d’un peuple palestinien. On ne parlera jamais de Palestiniens, mais d’Arabes de Palestine, comme s’ils s’étaient trouvés là par hasard ou par erreur. Et plus tard, on fera comme si les Palestiniens expulsés venaient du dehors, on ne parlera pas de la première guerre de résistance qu’ils ont menée tout seuls. On en fera les descendants d’ #Hitler, puisqu’ils ne reconnaissaient pas le droit d’Israël. Mais Israël se réserve le droit de nier leur existence de fait. C’est là que commence une fiction qui devait s’étendre de plus en plus, et peser sur tous ceux qui défendaient la cause palestinienne. Cette fiction, ce pari d’Israël, c’était de faire passer pour antisémites tous ceux qui contesteraient les conditions de fait et les actions de l’État sioniste. Cette opération trouve sa source dans la froide politique d’Israël à l’égard des Palestiniens.
#Israël n’a jamais caché son but, dès le début : faire le vide dans le territoire palestinien. Et bien mieux, faire comme si le territoire palestinien était vide, destiné depuis toujours aux sionistes. Il s’agissait bien de colonisation, mais pas au sens européen du XIX° siècle : on n’exploiterait pas les habitants du pays, on les ferait partir. Ceux qui resteraient, on n’en ferait pas une main-d’oeuvre dépendant du territoire, mais plutôt une main-d’oeuvre volante et détachée, comme si c’étaient des immigrés mis en ghetto. Dès le début, c’est l’achat des terres sous la condition qu’elles soient vides d’occupants, ou vidables.
C’est un #génocide, mais où l’extermination physique reste subordonnée à l’évacuation géographique : n’étant que des Arabes en général, les Palestiniens survivants doivent aller se fondre avec les autres Arabes. L’extermination physique, qu’elle soit ou non confiée à des mercenaires, est parfaitement présente. Mais ce n’est pas un génocide, dit-on, puisqu’elle n’est pas le « but final » : en effet, c’est un moyen parmi d’autres.
La complicité des #Etats-Unis avec Israël ne vient pas seulement de la puissance d’un lobby sioniste. Elias Sanbar* a bien montré comment les #États-Unis retrouvaient dans Israël un aspect de leur histoire : l’ #extermination des #Indiens, qui, là aussi, ne fut qu’en partie directement physique. il s’agissait de faire le vide, et comme s’il n’y avait jamais eu d’Indiens, sauf dans des ghettos qui en feraient autant d’immigrés du dedans. A beaucoup d’égards, les Palestiniens sont les nouveaux Indiens, les Indiens d’Israël.
L’analyse marxiste indique les deux mouvements complémentaires du #capitalisme : s’imposer constamment des limites, à l’intérieur desquelles il aménage et exploite son propre système ; repousser toujours plus loin ces limites, les dépasser pour recommencer en plus grand ou en plus intense sa propre fondation. Repousser les limites, c’était l’acte du capitalisme américain, du rêve américain, repris par Israël et le rêve du Grand Israël sur territoire arabe, sur le dos des Arabes. »

Ateizmi Kanıtlamanın İki Yolu – Quentin Smith
[Bu konuşma Minneapolis, Minnesota'da yapılan 6 Nisan 1996 tarihli Ateist Birliği toplantısından önce yapılmıştır.]. Konuşma ayrıca Infidels.org adresinde de yayımlanmıştır.
Yazar Öncül Analitik Felsefe
Bugün ateizmi kanıtlamanın iki yoluna değineceğim: İlki bilimsel kozmolojinin ateizmi kanıtlayabileceği, ikincisi ise nedensiz kötülüğün varlığının ateizmi kanıtladığı olacak. Bilimsel kozmoloji ile başlayacağım.
Bilimsel Kozmoloji
1960’ların ikinci yarısından beri, bilimsel altyapısı olan teistler, Büyük Patlama (Big Bang) kozmolojisi sebebiyle durumlarından oldukça mutluydular. Teistler, evrenin yaklaşık on beş milyar yıl önce bir patlamayla var olmaya başlamasının Tanrı’nın var olduğuna dair en iyi bilimsel kanıt olduğuna inanıyorlar. Evrenin Büyük Patlama adı verilen bir patlamayla başladığını biliyoruz. Teistler, evrenin nedensizce var olmaya başlayamayacağının ortada olduğunu düşünüyorlar. En mantıklı hipotez olarak evrenin nedeninin Tanrı olduğu hipotezini savunuyorlar. Bu teori, var olmaya başlayan şeyin bir nedeni olduğu önermesinin açıkça doğru olduğu varsayımına dayanıyor. Bu teist teori ışığında öne sürülen son argüman, William Lane Craig’in 1994 tarihli Reasonable Faith kitabında yer almaktadır.[1] Bu kitaptan size uzun uzadıya okuyacağım çok ilginç bir alıntı var; çünkü bu alıntının sonunda William Lane Craig benden teistik ilkenin açıklığını reddeden sapkın ateistlerden biri olarak bahsediyor. Şimdi size Craig’in bu argümanını doğrudan alıntılayacağım:
