European colonization imposed the transition from a survival economy peculiar to primitive, frozen, traditional societies to a productive economy based on movement and exchange on adaptability.
This colonial intervention provoked disturbances, but the transition to modernity was at this price.
Unfortunately, decolonization interrupted this process.
It should be noted, however, that the situation of the colonized countries and their population was infinitely better at the time of decolonization than it was before this colonization.
-Eradication of the main diseases.
-Finish slavery practices.
-Installation of a sanitary system.
– Establishment of a school system.
-Creation of many infrastructures.
– Establishment of a state of law and democratic practices.
-Also, unfortunately, the opening of Koranic schools and the printing and distribution of this book destructive cultures, the Koran.
The work accomplished in a few decades was quite remarkable and infinitely superior to what had been done during the preceding centuries.
The word “apartheid” refers to a discriminatory practice and this discriminatory practice was initiated and implemented by the muslims wherever they colonized other peoples.
The dhimmi system established a separation between muzz and non-muzz.
-The non-muslim systematically lost ownership of their lands which passed into the hands of the muslim under the “right of conquest”.
-Non-muslim were subject to a very heavy and specific taxation, which benefited the muslim occupants.
-Non-muslim did not have the right to raise their hands on a muzz even to defend themselves.
The testimony of a non-muzz was half that of a muslim.
-A non-muslim could not marry a muslim woman, while muslim could marry non-muslim woman.
-The houses of the non-muslim had to be lower than that of the muslim.
The non-muslim was not allowed to raise their voices in front of the muslim.
-Non-muslim did not have the right to build or repair their religious buildings, they had to get up to leave the seat to the muslim, they had to accommodate, house, feed for 3 days all the muslim that presented themselves.
These are some of the little things that the muzz colonists imposed on the peoples they occupied, spoliation and brim.
Beside that, European colonization looks like an annex of the club med.
The God of the Gospels could be true if we consider that His qualities are incarnated in Jesus Christ. These same qualities are very rare among Christians of both yesterday and today. But among all Christians, we find echoes or traces.
In other words, Muslims are too much like Allah and the Jews are too much like Jehovah. But Christians cannot seem to be like Christ, and therefore cannot be like their God.This is what makes me say that the God of the gospels would be the true if he exists.That’s my feeling.

]]>In the following contribution, I would like to share my feelings and experience as a 38-year-old individual in a muslim society. I was born and raised in Algeria. I studied at the Algerian school between 1964 and 1983. Before 38, I only left Algeria 3 times, as an adult, for a short stay (20 to 25 days) in Paris, visiting relatives. However, I never felt that I belonged to a muslim community. In fact, the first 18 years of my life have been in an environment that is very much like a secular environment. Until now, in Kabylia, the family, the school, the society are not squared off or governed by religious thought. Islam, as a socio-political system, does not work there.
I would rather say that it works “idle”. It has no power over either the individual or the society as a whole. It is lived “from the end of the mind”, as if to buy peace … I have the impression that the Kabyle people, in a collective reflex of self-defense, for a security reason, implicitly delegate some people, most of them old people without religious power over the youngest, to practice Islam in an astonishing euphoria; and give the impression of having abdicated.
For fear of collective reprisals, the Kabyle people here and there display signs of Islam very visible from the outside: empty mosques, sacrifice of sheep without bigotry, approximate Ramadan, introduction of a number of religious terms in the Kabyle language as inchallah, hamdoullah … The practice of rites is approximate, in an approximate Arabic language as to satisfy only a deal passed a very long time ago; a deal whose collective memory no longer has any memory. Otherwise, most young and old feel like a duty of disrespect towards Islam and the Koran. The Koran is called “aquran”, literally in Kabyle “the hard, the rigid” or “aqerru aquran” which means “the hard head or the stubborn”. The taunt and the joke are very common in public: deformation of ayat (already twisted!), introduction of vulgar words in the Koran, profanity in the remarks with respect to Islam etc.
Young people are incorrigible as their imagination is fertile. When they are blamed for it, they say, “does not it rhyme well? It’s the same style! “. Freedom of tone and expression when talking about religion is almost a national Kabyle sport. It is at most ingenuous to invent new expressions and parables to qualify Islam. This irreverence sometimes irritates the elderly and families of marabout origin, but it never goes to stigma or violence. Sometimes, when blasphemies call themselves a bit high, the old men are stealthily glancing to the left and right to make sure that the young offenders have not been heard by a giant ear that would reveal it.
Still children, we suspected the old men of knowing things they hid from us. I learned later that this ear is not that of Allah, but that of an even more hideous monster: the winner of a millennium ago. In recent years, Kabyle more or less Islamist, Arabisants, children of immigrants who grew up in Algiers, have returned massively in Kabylia, fleeing the repression of the regime. Not knowing the Kabyle society, they are disappointed by the lack of eagerness of people to serve the religion of Allah. Believing nevertheless resolutely home, they try to “educate” Kabyle and teach them the “good” practice of “their” religion. They meet, however, only mockery and rabble.
In a social environment like this, a whole host of different opinions rub shoulders and express themselves. It is not surprising that it is in Kabylia that we find the greatest concentration of atheists, communists, democrats, liberals, “westernized”, freethinkers, socialists, trade unionists, agnostics, poets, francophones, Berberist activists, while the Kabyle represent barely a sixth of the Algerian population.
In fact, I have never felt muslim. I did primary school, secondary school and high school in Kabylie. I had never left Kabylie before going to university in an Arab city. This is where my troubles with the muslim religion began. In academia, there was still the freedom, albeit limited, to bring the contradiction to Islamist militants, taking the precaution of not allowing the tone too high. There were skirmishes on occasion, but we were still far from the killings. Red lists were displayed in the campus mosque, intimidations, shows of knives and some cants quickly settled by the police.
They were commonplace. In town, it was another pair of sleeves. There was interest in melting into the mass and conforming to the habits, customs and bigot language. Fortunately I did not have the disadvantage of the physical! I was therefore evolving in this society, being perceived by my kind fellow citizens as a muslim. In their head, I can only be a practicing muslim, who would speak the same language and throw the same flowers to this beautiful religion which they took pride in. Seeing me very quickly that religion held all the place in the life of the city, I refrained from revealing my opinions at the souk, in the cafes, at the hairdresser, at friends’, on the bus … Suicidal behavior was not my forte. So I had direct access to muslim popular thought, in the almost original language of Islam. As long as I did not speak kabylian, I had plenty of time to witness all sorts of “treats” about Jews, Christians, Kabyles and Westerners in general. The unanimity was de rigueur: The Westerners stink the pig. The Christians are falsifiers of holy books. In every Jew there is an evil demon. The Kabyles are traitors, disguised kuffars to be wary of. Women, all women, are evil. Muslims will go alone to the Paradise of Allah but the most deserving (understand the most zealous), will be on the upper floors. Everybody else will burn in flames described with great details. At first it made me uncomfortable, but little by little curiosity pushed me to ask the question: But where do they find all this?
The Koran, of course!
This is what everyone in this city has in common. I had to read and reread the entire Koran in the text. The pot with roses was there! A real mine of “pearls”! I immediately compared this book to a huge reservoir of orange juice from which millions of straws leave. Every muslim has the leisure to suck and stuff himself at will.
Every child who is born finds his straw already prepared and ready for use. It is the one who sucks the most juice! It must do a lot of good! From the height of my twenties, I fell in awe at this well-oiled machine that made replicas without failing with a single one! A real factory with standard parts. Me who wanted to become an engineer, and I was very proud to have found how it worked, much like the four-year-old who built the ingenious system he found in his Kinder egg Surprise. I understood everything! But questions still puzzled me: Why were they also trying to quarrel with the pig and the good wine? What was the relationship between the proteins and the incantations recited by directing the head of the slaughtered beast to the kaaba? The purpose of my contribution is not to tell my troubles in details, but especially to testify the lessons I learned.
I have no bitterness, hatred, or resentment. On the contrary, I wish to pay tribute to my parents, my proffesor and my family (Kabyle, French, Belgian, Russian, German …) for keeping me from Islam,for giving me a Cartesian, just and rational education and to have given me the intellectual tools in 3 different languages to use my free will and develop my own analyzes of social, religious and scientific phenomena. This has been the case for hundreds of thousands of children of my generation. I am grateful to my family, to the Kabyle society, and to my secular professors for giving me the intellectual means to neutralize the teaching – I should say an attempt at religious indoctrination – that was generously given by Egyptian professors to all children in Kabylie and elsewhere in Algeria. I do not speak for other Algerian children because I am not sure that their parents have disapproved of this teaching. I am convinced that Islam is a matter of culture, education and its practice a case of social pressure combined with conditioning at a young age. Muslims who claim that they have freely chosen to be muslims only say so when their conscious freedom of choice is discussed by a non-muslim.
Otherwise, their conditioning is pushed to the point of living their Islamity as a personal identity, or even an ethnicity. I have repeated several times the following scenario in front of muslim comrades: give me a baby of any ethnic group, of parents who are followers of any religion. Give me the material means to give him an education alone. I will do what you want: an atheist, a muslim, a christian, a taoiste or even a Jew. And regardless of the religion that I would have chosen, I can also make an assassin, a humanist, a chicken thief, an ecologist a highwayman, a notorious drug dealer. Of course, ethics, to which I adhere, would not allow such an experiment. But it is perfectly theoretically possible. Paradoxically, my interlocutors always agree with me. They even laugh at me saying that this is obvious. I deduce then that their Islam has nothing to do with their moral and physical person and that they are muslims only because their family and their society have educated them in this sense. Adults, they can choose to continue to stay muslim or not. I ask them if they have ever considered this possibility. They all answer no. I tell them that it is because they have not been faced with the possibility of making a choice, and that they have only to choose between Islam and Islam. Their “monotonous” education has disabled them and deliberately retracted, if not fought, all the other possibilities. And there they do not agree with me anymore. They claim that they are muslims by choice, that they feel very comfortable, happy to be muslims and that it would never occur to them to think about questioning their faith in the Qur’an.
There was a time in Algeria where this kind of discussion was still possible in some places. I do not advise freethinkers to provoke this kind of dialogue today. Muslims are convinced that laymen and atheists never read religious texts. They think that laymen and atheists are reluctant to read them and that they despise these texts as a person would despise another person. In the minds of muslims, the Qur’an is a living person who speaks and has a soul. A living, magical, powerful entity that lives in them, but still needs protection. Thus, for them, atheists are at first glance “haters” who “hate muslims” because they are believers. It is impossible to discuss Islam and the Koran with a muslim without him involving his own person, and, little by little, all muslims. The slightest criticism of the Koran is felt as a personal attack. Muslims are convinced that their religion is part of their individual personality that they are born with, as one would be born with red hair or with blue eyes. Criticizing Islam is therefore experienced as a criticism of their physical person. It is not fortuitous if most muslims treat racists as people who are critical of Islam. This attitude is part of the notion of “martyrdom”. Believers are ready to shield their human person to protect their religion. They sacrifice their physical and moral integrity to what they believe to be RACISM. This integrity, they roll it themselves in the mud by redirecting on it all the criticisms addressed to Islam by their interlocutor. Many muslims believe that atheists are only because they have not deigned to read the Qur’an. What the Muslims do not know is that many atheists have become so by reading the Qur’an. For a muslim, anyone who reads the “holy” book must be immediately subjugated and converted to Islam without have no other choice.
They give arguments in the form of suras to support the Quran itself. Thus, to support a surah, they quote another surah. This is the example of this student who, to demonstrate that two theorems are simultaneously true, uses the first, not yet demonstrated, to demonstrate the second, then the second to demonstrate the first. A verse can not prove that another verse is of divine essence, because an atheist challenges all ayat. Yet this is what Muslims do in all the discussions I had with them. It must be said that the discussions conducted in Arabic, are much more funny. If their opponent enters the game and also quotes ayat, the Muslims tell him he can not read, that he can not interpret. They even mean that as an atheist he does not have to refer to the Quran. On the one hand, they claim that Islam is a universal religion, on the other hand they deny anyone the right to do what he wants with “his part” of Islam. In this way, the atheist is forced to think that the Qur’an is only for people who are already Muslim. When the interlocutor pins the Qur’an through uncorrupted, unmistakable verses, Muslims become impatient, irritated, and end up tinkering with a parry to protect the offending verse, instead of seriously reconsidering it in the light of Modern human values. They say then that it is necessary to put the verses in their historical and social context of the Koreichite period. I tell them that’s exactly what I’m trying to get them to do. Assuming that it is Allah who speaks in the Quran, these verses are addressed to particular people, on a particular date, in a particular place in a particular context. Why then do you, men of the twentieth century, living thousands of kilometers from Mecca, in another historical and social context, do you feel concerned by these verses? They answer me that the Qur’an is universal, valid, applicable everywhere and at any time! My arms fall down and I invite all the gang to have a tea at the Café des Amis, and talk about the good weather. Rain is scarce under this portion of Allah’s heaven. Another conviction is the unique and inimitable character of the Qur’anic texts. In fact, the Koran is indeed inimitable, because it is forbidden to imitate it. It must therefore be memorized to a maximum of faithful so that even the possible imitations oral are immediately detected. And, of course, also so that it acts instantly, at any time, on the behavior of the individual. “O you, Believers! Do you further believe that your unbelieving descendants will be considered get it memorized? In the Garden of Allah, there is no intercession. In this, your Lord is widely preaching. Verses like this one, I can write five a day, during my coffee break, in Arabic, rhythms and rhymes. Directly in French without rhymes or rhythm, I can easily write a hundred, on different themes. Besides, this one does not exist in the Koran. I just invented it just ten seconds ago. 99% of Muslims will not notice that aya does not exist in the Koran. Presented in Arabic, rhythmed, rhymed, breathless, this verse would deceive any muslim. A literate muslim who does not know the Koran good, would be obliged to verify its veracity by searching the Book. Otherwise, he would not notice anything, especially if I adopt a serious, severe and collected mine.
My Maghrebian physics helping, and sprinkling my verse with a bismi Allah arrahmane errahim “and a” sadaqa Allhou al aadhim “, I would fool any bigot. Why is that? Introduce a handful of US dollars to a French university city-dweller who has traveled a lot. Let’s first glide a 25-cent coin in Canadian currency from the US coins. By counting the small money, there is a very good chance that the individual realizes that there is an intruding coin in the pile, because he had to spend American money or simply because he knows all the coins of the American currency. Now let’s take the same handful of pieces and present it to an average Frenchman, say a small village in Coreze. By counting the coins, it is quite possible that he will count the 25-cent Canadian coin with the 25-cent US coins. In the same way, a Muslim who knows the Koran well or who has learned it will realize that my verse is false. Not that this verse contains anything in itself which indicates that it is false, but because the Muslim in question will not remember having met such a verse throughout his life, neither in his reading, nor in his mechanical recitation nor listening to another recite the Qur’an. When I tell a Muslim comrade that we have just talked for an hour about a verse that I myself invented, he gets angry with me, demonizes me and accuses me of having abused his ignorance of the Quran. I tell him that this is exactly what the Qur’an does: It is abusing his ignorance. And not to spoil the friendship, I change the subject. A Kabyle proverb says: you will not manage to straighten a dry reed that has grown crooked, you will break it.

]]>Political power is gangrene by corruption. Local officials, all predators. Tailbone political opposition, justifies somehow the subsidies which the regime sprikled over them. Society perverted, violent, archaic, disorganized, as predatory. The dictatorship is at the same time exercised by the political regime on the society and by the people themselves, on themselves. It is the role of Islamism, assumed and carried by almost all the people.
Countries under petrol infusion without political program, without social project, without values, without plan of economic development. To occupy their time, the leaders do in the popular unrest, squarely in the verbose and harmful agitation against France, against the harki, against the Kabylians, against the bi-nationals, against the Christians evangelists, against the women, against the Jews, against …. The only thing for which everyone is for, remains Islamism. Society surviving only if its hatred of the other is constantly nourished.I could have summed up by simply writing: Algeria, Muslim country.
Everyone knows what it is, starting of course with the Algerians. champion of hypocrisy!
Having nothing more to break in this country, nothing to destroy, nothing to vandalize, nothing to appropriate indecently, the hordes of well prepared young people and trained to create burnt land, will give their last shirt for a visa. Another land to burn, to sterilize.
]]>– I believe that my language is sacred, it is even the only language that will be spoken in paradise
– I believe that my sacred book is pure, unaltered, protected from lies and additions, whereas those of others have been corrupted, tampered with, falsified and unworthy of respect
– I invaded many countries and each time I impose their beliefs on their people because they are the only ones to reflect the absolute truth. If these people came to discuss the merits of my approach (invasion and forced conversion), I would tell them that my legitimacy I have from heaven, if they do not believe me then beware of them
I forbid all forms of proselytism, free thought, freedom of worship or conscience, religious pluralism: a single religion for the whole world. But when I find myself in another’s home, I demand full rights for my beliefs, I will ask for special treatment for individuals who share my faith
– at home I forbid, or I drastically restrict, places of worship other than those destined for my religion. I forbid even access to the holy places of my religion (which is necessarily the TRUE religion) to unbelievers and infidels, this is what we call those who do not adhere to our faith. Besides, they are given torment and terrible chastisement, when we have the power we apply them and when we are not strong enough we play tartufes
– I allow myself to criticize in a virulent way the beliefs of others by qualifying them as ignoble, abominable. I allow myself to denigrate the gods of others by calling them false gods, I even allow myself to say that one of them was only a Muslim prophet (whereas at the time he was supposed to have existed Islam was nonexistent) who was deified and that on the day of the great judgment this prophet will deny those who worshiped him as a god. You see it yourself, I have only scorn and disdain for the faith of others, on the other hand when criticizing my prophet or his book, I am ready to provoke the flood to punish the infamous blasphemers: attacks, fires of embassies, calls for holy war, calls for boycott, all energies must be mobilized to wash the affront
– my solidarity, my compassion, my fraternity my love for the human race are quite selective. When one of my co-religionists is in conflict with a believer (or atheist, agnostic, raelian) of another religion, I systematically side with my brother in religion, I am completely indifferent to the fact that infidels are massacred in huge numbers, however, I will not accept that a drop of blood of a coreligionary is paid. In any case, my religion orders me to kill people who refuse to convert, so with every faith that an unfaithful dies it brings satisfaction for my god.
I’m not going to stretch this charade to infinity, so who am I?
They lied to us and continued to deceive us with our consent.They erased the whole history of the centuries and made us believe that a superman arab was fanatising by a prophet, who did not exist yet, riding a flying horse and annihilating all resistance on his way to impose a god whose name does not exist, and was yet to be spoken about. But who in good spirits could ever imagine the existence of a horse in the Arabian desert, an animal that needs several tens of liters of water a day. Who could honestly believe that the small water points of this region concealed cities that were supercitys which were as important as Paris or London, two cities of which we find a rich history, dating from centuries before the time of supposed Mohamed.
It was Napoleon who said that history is a series of lies on which we agreed. He knew what he was saying, the guy!
Here is a piece of history that they have hidden about centuries ago whose history has been erased and replaced by fantasy stories that have given birth to Islam.
At the time of the birth of the supposed Mohammed, the sixth century, the religious conflicts were numerous in all the Mediterranean rim, two Christian sects (Not to mention the Jews blowing on the embers between the two), the Trinitarians and the Unitarians. The advantage was on the side of the Unitarian Arianists.
Apart from the Byzantine state, which was a trentary Catholic Orthodox, it would seem that the majority was Unitarian around the mediterranean counties, South, North, East and West.
The Germanic tribes, the Goths (East and West), with their states in Ravenna and Spain were Unitarian, like the Langobardes and the Vandals in North Africa. The Franks were Arianists too.
The region of Damascus and Jerusalem was only “officially” a part of the Byzantine empire. The real power was already in the hands of the Unitarians, the Judaeo-Arameo-Christians were in the Unitarian majority of a long tradition.
Egypt, the base of Arianus, founder of the Arianism doctrine, as well as North Africa, were also predominantly Unitarian.
Even later, in the 7th century after the death of the supposed Mohamed, things are not clear. The first Umayyad caliphs, do not seem to have been “Muslims”. Some archaeological data confirms the Unitarianism of the time:
– The Al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem does not have a qibla. Unitarians in Jerusalem did not need a qibla. In addition, the mosaics at Al-Aqsa are interpretable as pure Arianism, especially if we consider that the language spoken and written in Jerusalem was not Arabic, a language that did not exist yet, but Arameen .
– The old mosque in Kairouan and the great mosque in Cordoba have a qibla ….. in the direction of Jerusalem and not towards Mecca! A city that contains no trace of life of that time.
There were two big lies on which millions of others were built.
The first is that of the false birth of Islam in Arabia. The second is the perception of the “Arab / Sarazins” by the Catholic Church and the role they wanted to give them. The term “Arabic” only first appeared when modern Europe was interested in the Ottoman Empire, at least officially.
A few bands of nomadic villains scattered in a huge desert does not make a people capable of suddenly creating a religion and imposing it by force on nations, which were more powerfull in all areas; social, military, technical, cultural, etc. whereas some were located thousands of kilometers from the Hejaz desert.
According to the official history of Islam written by Catholic and Muslim fanatics, the Sarazens were those who were cited as the conquerors who spread the Islamic faith in the 700 hundreds. A faith whose sacred book would only exist a century later.
Let’s see whom the sarazins were in the middle ages.
In his book « The Sarazins were from the area » (Les Sarazins étaient du coin), the French historian Joseph Henriet demonstrates that those whom history has named Sarazens were not Arabs. They would be, more generally, pagans, peoples who had not converted to Christianity, and assimilated to Muslims by a confusion due to the idea, formerly believed, that Islam adapted certain traits estimated prior to Christianity. Heresy was generally regarded as a superficial garment given to old beliefs; this was also the case of Arianism, which had been adopted by the Burgundians. In the heart of the Alps, according to Henriet, different heretics and pagans could live side by side, but at the end of the day, they were no stranger to the area: it was a native people, settled in places since the beginning. They are those whom we today call Ligures, whose language was no doubt close to Basque. In opposite from the Allobroges, they remained at the top of the mountains or in the depths of the valleys.
According to Henriet, the description of « Sarazins » by medieval authors refers to indigenous peoples, not Eastern invaders.
The history of Islam is a series of lies that can not be retold in one single article. For almost three centuries the religious have erased the history of the spread of Islam and have imagined a story that saves the honor of the three monotheistic sisters, Judaism, Catholicism and Islam.
– Muhammad Sven Kalisch professor of Islamic Religion :The prophet Muhammad never existed.

It seems that the Europeans took ingredients they had at home and made a great story for Islam. Let’s see whom the sarazins were in the middle ages.
In his book “The Sarazins were from the area” (Les Sarazins étaient du coin), the French historian Joseph Henriet demonstrates that those whom history has named Sarazens were not Arabs.

They are those whom we today call Ligures, whose language was no doubt close to Basque. In opposite from the Allobroges, they remained at the top of the mountains or in the depths of the valleys.
According to Henriet, the description of “Sarazins” by medieval authors refers to indigenous peoples, not Eastern invaders.
These natives would have preserved for a long time, in the Middle Ages, their pagan cults, their way of mountainlife, and also their habits of plundering the convoys of travelers when their productions were insufficient. Christian writers, living in the cities, would therefore have claimed them to be “Sarazins”, referring both to the terror they inspired, and to their ignorance of the Christian religion.
One day, perhaps soon, thanks to the rapid progress of genetic sience, honorable scientists should be able to determine with certainty whom the Sarazins of the Alps were. In the meantime, Joseph Henriet’s hypothesis seems to be particularly convincing …
