If anyone still needed proof that anti-Semitism is way too acceptable in France, you now have it. A
Paris suburb has made the assassin of Israeli tourism minister Rechavam Ze'evi HY"D (May God Avenge his blood) an honorary citizen.
Bezons awarded the title last month to Majdi Al-Rimawi, according to the
March edition of its official newsletter, Bezons Infos. The motion to
recognize Rimawi passed unanimously at a special council vote of the
municipality, which is northwest of Paris and nearly eight miles from
the city's center.
“He is imprisoned for more than 10 years in an Israeli prison. His
crime? Defending his city and its inhabitants, calling for the
application of international law for the establishment of Palestine in
the 1967 borders as recognized by the United Nations and Jerusalem as
its capital. For this he was sentenced in 2002 [sic] to life in prison…
More than 80 years!” proclaims the newsletter article.
The article
does not mention the 2008 conviction of Rimawi, a member of the
terrorist organization Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine,
for the murder of Ze’evi in Jerusalem in 2001. Rimawi was one of four
shooters who waited for Ze’evi, Israel's minister of tourism, outside a
hotel in Jerusalem.
Bezons Mayor Dominique Lesparre was quoted as calling the vote to honor Rimawi “a strong political act.”
The
inscription on the plaque prepared by Bezons, which has a population of
approximately 28,000, referred to Al-Rimawi as a "political prisoner,"
according to Palestinian Media Watch.
The real question here is why al-Rimawi hasn't had a little 'accident' in prison yet....
