❗ ❗ Testimony of a friend that was there during the fascist attack which happened yesterday’s evening against a conference of collectif69palestine ❗ ❗ thread don’t hesitate to share and retweet

Yesterday evening, at 7PM, I was present at a conference of @collectif69palestine about a french doctor who worked in Gaza.

In the middle of the event, as you can see on the video, we were attacked by groups of notorious fascist of Vieux Lyon.

Between 40/50 white men, dressed in black, hooded, armed (crowbars, iron bars a few meters long, mortar fire).

We held the door with tables and chairs so that they couldn’t force their way through the entrance. It almost broke a few times.

They yelled many times “we’re gonna fuck your moms”. While hitting their iron bars against the door and shooting mortar. At one point I was scared that the whole room might catch on fire if they shot too many.

And what if the door gave in, I let you imagine what 50 fascists hooded and armed to the teeth would have done.

The attack lasted between 30 and 40 min. It was hell, I thought I was going to die, they managed to shatter a window and the shattered glass injured some peoples, among them men with a bloodied face, to whom I gave bandages.

We were completely confined. Roughly 150 peoples, 80% of the public were very elderly peoples, veiled womens, families, kids and racialized man. This neo-Nazi militia wanted to hurt us, just because we are pro Palestine, leftists and non white.

Here is an image of an injured men from the room, his face was hurt too, ans his shoulder probably dislocated since he couldn’t move it.

There were traumatized, crying and shaking kids, without the strength to say one word. We were all terrorized by the thought of getting killed or gravely injured.

We must say the word it’s a TERRORIST ATTACK. Thankfully there weren’t any dead, but a few injured. The fascists even bragged on social media about “gravely hurting the pro Palestine leftists”

And the police in all of that? A 40 MINUTES WAIT. 40 MINUTES BEING PETRIFIED, RISKING DEATH, SUBJECT TO A TERRORIST ATTACK.

And of course the police accomplice of the fascists. Once in the place, they arrested as you can see on this image THE PRO PALESTINE MILITANTS FROM THE CONFERENCE.

You read that right. The victimes of a terrorist attack, handcuffed, flattened on the ground, searched.

All because they held the door to protect us with pieces of wood. The police estimated that these were weapons, and they will be summoned to the police station.

So the volunteers of the pro Palestine collectif, have been assaulted, insulted, threatened of death. I quote from a witness on the scene because I was at the window far and didn’t hear. The police said while entering “ON THE GOUND OR WE SHOOT”.

I tried to film the scene, but as you see, a cop turned a flash of light toward us to keep us from filming the violences that the victims comited (?) (the person probably made a typo her and meant “perpetrators” or “terrorists” instead of “victims”)

Meanwhile the victimes of a terrorist attack are handcuffed because of pieces of wood.

THE NEO NAZI MILICIA IS HANGING AROUND IN THE STREETS UNBOTHERED. The organizers explained the situation begging the cops to go catch them because they were still outside. And they said I quote “We’ll see about that later”. VIOLENT ARMED EXTREMISTS TERRORISTS WHO TRIED TO KILL US BUT IT’S NOT THEIR PROBLEM.

Vue of the attack from outside. Here are these extremist terrorists in total liberty for 40 MINUTES. And it’s us, the victims, who got arrested.

The police didn’t even comme to see the room. We had to get out in small groups and auto-manage ourselves for safety.

When exiting the room, I passed 1 meter away from 2 NEO NAZI TERRORISTS DRESSED IN BLACK AND HOODED. Meanwhile 10 meter farther away, the police handcuff the victims.

“The police intervened quickly” : 30/40 min later

“violences perpetrated” : A fascist terrorist attack

“An ultra-right groupuscule” : a nazi militia armed with knives and iron bars

“3 lightly injured” : just what I have seen, blooded faces and a dislocated shoulder, and a hundred peoples psychologically traumatized for life

“an individual arrested” : the victims of a terrorist attack were handcuffed and mistreated meanwhile terrorists hung out there

DO NOT BELEVE THE STATMENTS FROM REPRESENTATIVES OF THE STATE. THEY ARE ACCOMPLICE OF THE POLICE AND IT IS BECAUSE OF THEIR INACTION THAT WE WERE VICTIMS OF A TERRORIST ATTACK.

IF YOU WANT TO SHARE MY STORIES AND TESTIMONY ON YOUR SOCIAL MEDIAS. THE TRUTH MUST BE REESTABLISHED AND THE PAROLE OF THE VICTIMES HEARD.

Today in 2023 in France, we risk death for defending Palestine, for being Arab, Muslim, black or just racialized.

Today in 2023 in France, the victims of a terror attack were insulted, mistreated and handcuffed by the police when calling for help.

Imagine just for 2 second the oposite: 50 arabic men, extremists, islamists, hooded and armed trying to force the entrence of a pro Israel conference while yelling song celebrating the death of whites.

Macron would have already made a speach. The terrorist prosecution would have already been seased and and the islamist terrorists would have been found and killed by the police.

Today to be taken seriously and protected by the state, one must be white.

    It took the police 40 minutes because they had to leave, go home and get changed into their cop uniforms before coming back.
