Dassault and His Mosque

http://galliawatch.blogspot.com/


Some websites are talking about the generous contributions towards the construction of the Corbeil-Essonnes mosque, made by Serge Dassault, the UMP mayor of the town in the Parisian suburbs. This same mayor has also given large sums of money to a young black municipal councillor who was recently convicted of concealing a stolen car and domestic violence. This article from Islamisation is in sections, and discusses the manner in which Sarkozy's UMP party works to win Muslim votes:

The guest of honor at the monthly gathering of the Corbeil-Essonnes mosque on December 29 will be Hani Ramadan, grandson of the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hassan Al-Banna, for whom "stoning constitutes a punishment but also a sort of purification." In 1947 Hassan Al-Banna affirmed that "it is in the nature of Islam to dominate, to impose its law on all nations and to spread its power throughout the entire world."

Here is the communiqué from the Corbeil-Essonnes mosque that Serge Bloch, known as Serge Dassault, had defined during its grandiose opening ceremonies on January 29, 2005, as an "Islamic cultural center."

At this point the author prints the invitation to the gathering.

Regarding Serge Dassault, mayor of Corbeil-Essonnes, he is the son of the great French industrialist and aviation pioneer Marcel Dassault. The family was Jewish, and during WWII they were sent to Buchenwald for refusing to collaborate with the Nazis who sought their expertise in aeronautics. They later changed their family name from Bloch to Dassault, and in 1950 they converted to Catholicism. Serge Dassault, now 82, was named senator from Corbeil-Essonnes in 2004. Thus he holds two titles as Senator-Mayor. The family has had much influence in the world of journalism: Serge Dassault is owner of the publishing group that includes Le Figaro. The Dassault Corporation manufactures the Mirage and Rafale jets, and the Falcon aircraft.

English-language readers can turn to Wikipedia for more on him, and follow the links to his father Marcel Dassault. You will note that Wikipedia refers to him as a "conservative" politician.

The article proceeds with a January 31, 2005 quote from Le Monde (no link) on the financing of the Corbeil mosque:

(...) For its construction the UMP senator-mayor contributed a good portion of the 2 million euros necessary, complementing the donations from a "Saudi Arabian benefactor", explains the Muslim cultural association of Corbeil-Essones which considers it a "point of honor to be dependent on nobody." "City Hall could not finance it, it is forbidden," said Mr. Dassault who took from his personal fortune, but refused to state the specific amount he contributed. In the city, everyone knows that without Dassault there would never have been a mosque.

The article continues with the story of another unfortunate contribution:

Serge Dassault, a believer in acquiring Islamic clients, "contributed 500,000 euros to the personal bank account of one of his municipal councillors, a young black "known and respected by all" in the suburb of Les Tarterêts. The courts see nothing wrong with this according to the Nouvel Observateur of December 05, 2007 (no link), explaining that "the money, given in 2006 in three payments to the account of this young black from Tarterêts, was withdrawn both by check and in cash, in amounts up to 100,000 euros per withdrawal."

Samba Diagouraga, the fortunate beneficiary, has just been convicted to 1000 euros fine for shoving and insulting police officers during an arrest in the Les Tarterêts in June 2006. The young foreigner, 33 years old, had previously been convicted of concealing a stolen vehicle and domestic violence. (...) He also distinguished himself for having denounced a doctor who refused to allow veiled women in his waiting room.

Here is a striking example of UMP's strategy for buying votes from the Muslim colonists. Favors to the ethnic communities, political cynicism, collaboration with Islamism and seduction (I don't want to say "corruption") of the local "big brothers" (I don't want to say "scum").

And they dare to teach moral lessons to the Front National...

The top photo is the Corbeil mosque, the second shows a grateful Dalil Boubakeur (left), rector of the Paris mosque and president of the French Council of the Muslim Religion (CFCM), with an effusive Serge Dassault, on the day of the opening of the Corbeil mosque. At that opening Dassault addressed the Muslim community with these words:

"I know that you are not like the others who manipulate intolerance, hatred and violence. I know that you want peace, fraternity, tolerance, consideration. That is why I respect you, appreciate you, and express to you all my friendship, all my consideration."

What to think of Dassault? A con artist? A cynical traitor to his country? A money man and nothing more? Or a rich self-deluded liberal who makes a fatally inaccurate comparison between his Nazi persecutors and those who condemn Islam, and who, by "doing good" to the "oppressed", betrays precisely those who were tortured by the Nazis.

Dassault is also said to have remarked that he was impressed by Moammar Qadhafi's "warmth" during the latter's infamous visit to Paris.

Maybe he's just a dirty old sycophant.
