Levy has always defended the Israeli occupation army and its violations (Anatolia)

French Jewish thinker Bernard-Henri Levy sparked a storm of anger on French social media platforms, following his recent repeated appearances in support of the Israeli occupation army and justifying its ongoing aggression against the Gaza Strip.

Levy claimed - in an interview with the local French newspaper "Nice-Matin" - that the Israeli response to the Al-Aqsa flood was "proportionate," considering the fall of tens of thousands of civilian casualties "a natural and inevitable matter in any war."

Levy compared the Israeli response to the response of the international coalition to the ISIS attacks in Iraq, saying, "The Israeli response was not disproportionate, but rather it was similar to the response of the international coalition in Mosul, where the city was almost destroyed, and the number of civilian casualties was very large."

Levy's statements were met with a wide wave of criticism from activists who considered that he justified the crimes of genocide in Gaza, while specialists believed that the Israeli response was disastrous for Palestine and for the future of the State of Israel.

Apology of serious crimes.

Dustbin of history

Representative Thomas Port of the Proud France movement wrote - on his account on the X platform - that “defending war crimes throws Levy into the dustbin of history forever.”

Meanwhile, retired French army colonel Guillaume Ansel saw that "the Israeli response to the Gaza Strip is a disaster for Palestine and the future of Israel."

Activist Rafael Iván sharpened his tone towards the newspaper Nice Matin, writing on the X platform that “supporting war crimes from this notorious newspaper is shameful. Sooner or later, history will remember those who supported genocide.”

It is noteworthy that since the beginning of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip, Levy has been appearing in defense of the occupation army and its violations, especially through his book “The Isolation of Israel,” which he dedicated to the families of Israeli prisoners. He also described what happened on the seventh of last October as “the most sadistic attack.” " in history.
