Eric Zemmour Sounds the Alarm: 'Hamas Attacks Signal a Battle for Our Way of Life' (Video)

Paris, France – In a recent speech, former French presidential candidate and leader of the Reconquête party, Eric Zemmour, passionately addressed the nation, denouncing the ongoing acts of terror committed by Hamas against Israel. Zemmour, a prominent figure known for his outspoken views, expressed unwavering support for the Israeli nation and emphasized the pressing need to confront extremist groups in France.

Zemmour began by acknowledging the devastating situation in Israel: “My dear friends, since October 7, the land of Israel has been the target of a vast offensive led by Hamas.” This Islamic jihadist organization has launched a relentless offensive, infiltrating cities, opening fire on civilians, taking hostages, and firing thousands of rockets. The toll so far has been staggering, with over 700 casualties and 2,200 injuries as of the time of his speech.

The former presidential candidate was unequivocal in his assessment: “Hamas is waging a brutal, bloody war in Israel. It is a jihadist group stemming directly from the Muslim Brotherhood.” He underlined that Hamas’ actions were a manifestation of Islamic extremism rather than a fight for so-called Palestinian liberation. Zemmour quoted Hamas’ motto, which emphasizes their religious and militant objectives: “No, Hamas’ motto is as follows: ‘Allah is its goal, the Prophet is the model, the Koran is its constitution, jihad its path, and death for the sake of Allah its most sublime belief.”

Zemmour expressed his shock and outrage at the brutal nature of the attacks: “What is this culture that dares to take a grandmother as a hostage, who has already experienced so many wars, with a Kalashnikov?” He went on to ask: “What is this culture that spits on the body of a naked, soiled, and disarticulated young woman thrown behind a truck?”

The former presidential candidate also drew attention to the similarities between the acts of terror in Israel and those that have occurred on French soil in recent years. He emphasized the shared threat posed by international jihadists, stating: “What is this culture that, like in the Jewish school of Toulouse, shoots a child in the head just because he is Jewish?”

Zemmour criticized the responses of left-wing political groups in France, stating: “We have seen the ‘French Insoumise’ party of Jean-Luc Mélenchon place the jihadists of Hamas and the forces of the Israeli army on the same level, and even justify this attack.” He further decried the far-left NPA party’s call for solidarity with resistance movements.

Zemmour concluded his speech by emphasizing the urgent need for France to take action to protect its citizens. He called for the dissolution of the Muslim Brotherhood and pro-Palestinian groups that support Islamic jihad. He urged the government to demonstrate firmness in tracking down and countering the activities of international jihadists on French soil.

In his closing remarks, Zemmour extended his solidarity to Israel, acknowledging that the struggle faced by the country was not solely about the Jewish people but was a battle for Western civilization. He warned that France must be vigilant, as the clash of civilizations predicted by Samuel Huntington in the 21st century could have dire consequences if extremism continues to grow within the country.

The former presidential candidate emphasized that the fate of Israel should serve as a warning for France. He urged the French government to take proactive measures, and the nation’s citizens to stand united against the threat of Islamic jihad for the sake of their own security and the preservation of their civilization. Eric Zemmour also expressed support for the French people residing in Israel, urging them not to give up and to remain resilient in the face of the ongoing conflict.
