فرنسا: كاتب يهودي يخشى من تأثير المسلمين في الإطاحة بساركوزي

- خبر من مصادر إنجليزية.

أكد "ديفيد روبين" - الكاتب اليهودي الأمريكي - أنه من خيبة الأمل خسارة "نيكولا ساركوزي" اليميني في الانتخابات الحالية مع محاولة حشد المسلمين للتصويت لصالح "هولاند" الاشتراكي، مُشيرًا إلى أن ذلك ليس في مصلحة "فرنسا" أو الحضارة الغربية، خاصة وأن "ساركوزي" كان حازمًا تجاه الممارسات الإسلامية.

وقد أكد "روبين" - مؤلف كتاب "تسونامي الإسلامي: إسرائيل وأمريكا في عهد أوباما" - ضرورة فوز "ساركوزي" داعيًا جبهة اليمين القومية التي خرجت من السباق الرئاسي دعم "ساركوزي" في الجولة الأخيرة في ظل مناهضة للإسلام، وخشية إطاحة حشد المسلمين بـ"ساركوزي" اليميني. المصدر: شبكة الألوكة.

Muslim influence in French election

A U.S.-born Israeli author and expert on the Middle East says it would be a "great disappointment" if French President Nicholas Sarkozy loses his re-election bid on Sunday.

The Associated Press reports there is a special effort by imams and Islamic associations to get French Muslims to vote in the second round of the French presidential elections May 6. A recent poll shows Socialist candidate Francois Hollande leading President Nicholas Sarkozy by six points, and many pundits believe the incumbent is in serious trouble.

David Rubin, former mayor of the Israeli city of Shiloh and author of The Islamic Tsunami: Israel and America in the Age of Obama, says Sarkozy has been critical of Muslim practices, including the refusal of many Islamic immigrants to assimilate into the French culture. As a result, Hollande could benefit from a successful Islamic get-out-the-vote effort.

"It certainly would be a great disappointment," he admits, "and it wouldn't be a positive move for France or for Western civilization if Sarkozy doesn't get in."

So Rubin hopes Sarkozy will get strong support from those who voted for National Front candidate, Marine Le Pen, who finished third in the April 22 first round elections and has refused to endorse Sarkozy in the run-off.

"Even though Marine Le Pen hasn't endorsed Sarkozy per se, I think that a lot of her voters will be voting for Sarkozy," the expert predicts. "If you look at Le Pen, she's also made recently some very positive statements about Israel, and she is very against the Muslim creeping takeover in Europe."

More than five million Muslims live in France, and one of their leaders has told AP, "If Muslims were organized, it would be dangerous for Sarkozy."
