FPF - Europe - March 11, 2006 - Without the Orwellian 'Thought Police' and anti-semitic actions by some jewish organizations in France, the world would never have known about the huge amount of information available on Internet concerning the jewish slave trade. Google offers about 510,000 'hits' - Url.: http://tinyurl.com/gzbl6

The outspoken French comic - Dieudonne M'Bala M'Bala - who wants to run for president of France in 2007 - and has faced several legal challenges for his sketches, often draws as much criticism as laughter. He was fined for his comments 'comparing Jews to slave traders'. To check whether the JDL, the French judge or Dieudonne M'Bala M'Bala was wrong or right, and if there has been any 'jewish trade in slaves' (apart from all the other slave trading countries)* one of course also should turn to a jewish source like 'The Jewish Encyclopedia', and see what they say about it.*

WELL, THERE'S ENOUGH INFORMATION ON THE 'JEWISH SLAVE TRADE' TO KEEP ALL JEWISH DEFAMATION LEAGUES AND OTHER ANTI-SEMITES BUSY FOR THE NEXT CENTURY, FIGHTING THEIR OWN JEWISH ENCYCLOPEDIA e.a. IN COURT.

There's a special on it, titled 'SLAVE-TRADE' - written by Isidore Singer and Joseph Jacobs: "Trading in slaves was permitted by all ancient and medieval legislations; even Christian Europe allowed it down to the thirteenth century. At an early stage traffic in Jewish slaves was forbidden to Jews, but there appears to have been no restrictions in law or sentiment against the purchase and sale of heathen slaves (see Slaves).

POPE GELASIUS IN THE YEAR 492 PERMITTED JEWS TO INTRODUCE SLAVES, IF THEY WERE HEATHEN, FROM GAUL INTO ITALY.

With the dispersion of the nations in Europe, and the conflicts arising from the divergence of creed between the Arians and the Catholics in Spain, opportunity was given to the Jews, who were equally hated and equally licensed, to supply both with slaves. Pope Gelasius (492) permitted Jews to introduce slaves, if they were heathen, from Gaul into Italy.

AT THE TIME OF POPE GREGORY THE GREAT (590-604) JEWS HAD BECOME THE CHIEF TRADERS IN THIS CLASS OF TRAFFIC.

He objected to the Jews holding Christian slaves ("Epist." ix. 109) because he feared that they would be converted to Judaism (ib. iv. 21); and he wrote to the Bishop of Naples that the Jews dealt in Christian slaves which they bought in the Gallic territories (ib. ix. 36). It has been suggested by Jacobs that the British slaves who had been brought to the Roman market, attracting Gregory's attention to the need of Christianizing England, were in the hands of Jewish slave-dealers ("Jews of Angevin England," p. 5).

With the rise of Islam large opportunities were afforded to the Jews to supply Moslem slaves to the Christian world, and Christian slaves to that of Islam; and Ibn Khordadhbeh in the ninth century describes two routes by which Jewish slave-dealers carried such slaves from West to East and from East to West (see Commerce). According to Abraham ibn Ya'ub, Byzantine Jews regularly purchased Slavs at Prague to be sold as slaves.

"JEWS KEPT CHRISTIANS AS SLAVES"

Louis the Fair granted charters to Jews visiting his kingdom, permitting them to possess and sell slaves, provided the latter had not been baptized; three of these charters are still extant. Agobard claimed that, notwithstanding this provision, the Jews kept Christians as slaves, citing the instance of a Christian refugee from Cordova who declared that his coreligionists were frequently sold, as he had been, to the Moors.

Many, indeed, of the Spanish Jews owed their wealth to the trade in Slavonian slaves brought from Andalusia (Grätz, "Gesch." vii.). Similarly, the Jews of Verdun, about the year 949, purchased slaves in their neighborhood and sold them in Spain (Aronius, "Regesten," No. 127).

JEWISH SLAVE-TRADING OPPOSED.

THE CHURCH REPEATEDLY PROTESTED AGAINST THE SALE OF CHRISTIANS TO JEWS, THE FIRST PROTEST OCCURRING AS EARLY AS 538.

At the third council of Orleans a decree was passed that Jews must not possess Christian servants or slaves, a prohibition which was repeated over and over again at different councils—as at Orleans (541), Paris (633), Toledo (fourth council, 633), Szabolcs (1092), Ghent (1112), Narbonne (1227), Béziers (1246). After this time the need of such a prohibition seems to have disappeared. Thus, at Marseilles, in the thirteenth century, there were only two cases of Jewish, as against seven of Christian, slave-traders ("R. E. J." xvi.).

It was part of St. Benedict's rule that Christian slaves were not to serve Jews (Aronius, "Regesten," No. 114). Despite the Church rule, many Christians trafficked with the Jews in slaves, and the Church dignitaries of Bavaria even recognized this traffic by insisting on the Jews and other merchants paying toll for slaves (ib. No. 122).

The Margrave of Meissen sold many of his subjects to Jews, and complaints were raised against him by the emperor Henry on that score (ib. No. 141). It became a part of Christian duty to ransom slaves, and St. Adalbert gave up the Prague bishopric because he could not free all the slaves of Jews, while the countess Judith of Ladislaus paid ransom-money for some Jewish slaves the day before her death (1085).

Still, the Carlovingian emperors granted permission for Jews to hold slaves without their being baptized, and so ipso facto manumitted. [set free] - Such permission was given, for instance, to Judah ibn Kalonymus and his associates at Speyer, and, about 1090, to Jews of Worms. In 1100 Jews paid a tax of 4 pence for each slave held by them at Coblenz.

PROTESTS WERE FREQUENTLY MADE AGAINST THE JEWS CIRCUMCISING THEIR SLAVES.

It seems that they devoted considerable attention to proselytizing them, and it was to the interest of slaves to become Jews, because they could not then be resold. It would appear, however, that Jews were more stringent about the circumcision of slaves in the sixteenth century than they were in the tenth (Abrahams, "Jewish Life in the Middle Ages," p. 99), though this applies only to Mohammedan countries, where Jews were allowed to own only Christian slaves.

A slave who was taken to the Holy Land became ipso facto free as soon as he touched the soil ("Responsa of Geonim," section 12). Bibliography: Abrahams, Jewish Life in the Middle Ages, pp. 99-101.S. J." - [ANDEND] - Jewish Encyclopedia - Url.: http://tinyurl.com/gxqdh

THE RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF SPEECH IS GUARANTEED UNDER INTERNATIONAL LAW

The French judge must know that Freedom of speech and/or opinion is often regarded as an integral concept in modern liberal democracies, where it is understood to outlaw censorship. And outlaws the silencing of people on the behest of just one group.* Whether it's NATO - [http://tinyurl.com/662pp] - and the former president of Serbia, Slobodan Milosevic, found dead in The Hague in his cell, with people wondering whether he was' suicided' or died - what will be called 'a natural death'. - [http://tinyurl.com/f2wup] - Or the JDL's attacking my colleagues and people like British historian David Irving, organizing a three year jail sentence for what he thinks and says.*

THE RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF SPEECH - ALSO FOR IRVING AND M'BALA M'BALA - IS GUARANTEED FOR ALL OF US UNDER INTERNATIONAL LAW THROUGH NUMEROUS HUMAN RIGHTS INSTRUMENTS, NOTABLY UNDER ARTICLE 19 OF THE UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS AND ARTICLE 10 OF THE EUROPEAN CONVENTION ON HUMAN RIGHTS - UL.: HTTP://TINYURL.COM/JRL3A

But, 'The Group' has a firm ground to stand on: ''France will never compromise on Israel's security'' French/Moroccan prime minister Dominique de Villepin declared two weeks ago. "France will always be at Israel's side and will continue to reject terrorism, fanaticism and violence" Villepin told the annual dinner meeting of CRIF, the umbrella group of secular Jewish organisations in France. - [http://tinyurl.com/eslav]

If what M'Bala M'Bala said, according to the judge 'is stigmatizing his detractors', than what 'par example' is the information offered by the Internet search machines or 'The Jewish Encyclopedia'? Slander, or what?

The general impression is that the jewish groups doing this, are creating and fomenting more anti-semitic disgust in their fanaticism.

AND APART FROM THAT: THE FRENCH 'JUDGE' SHOULD HAVE KNOWN THE FACTS.

THIS IS POLITICS, NOT THE LAW.
