20 – Négationnisme et révisionnisme :
Alors que les civils dans la région d’Idlib continuent d’être le cible de bombardements aériens incessants et de déplacements forcés, voilà le genre de discours que l’on entend à la télé française, la chaîne parlementaire, écoutez à partir de 1h12min pour deux minutes http://www.lcp.fr/emissions/droit-de-suite/293018-droit-de-suite
Il y a eu pas mal de réactions sur Twitter, @NTenzer a écrit : L’ignominie qui ne se déguise même plus : « classer » les êtres humains selon leur religion et, partant, pour justifier les crimes contre l’humanité d’#Assad, enlever leur humanité à certains. Cela rappelle quelque chose et l’on sait où cela a conduit. Outre que ces propos sont faux – #Assad a massacré aussi des chrétiens -, c’est un criminel contre l’humanité, responsable de plus de 500 000 morts. Aujourd’hui encore, il massacre des enfants à #Idlib. Car l’implicite de ce raisonnement est abject. « Ce ne sont pas des chrétiens mais des musulmans. Ah, pas de problème alors ». Cette classification fut la base de la #Shoah en ce qu’elle désignait des « sous-hommes ». Elle nourrit les propagandistes de l’#Holocauste syrien.
Car @lcp @BertrandDelais les propos que vous tweetez constituent un blanchissement de #crimescontrelhumanite. Pour la #Syrie ce n’est peut-être pas sanctionnable pénalement. Mais dire qu’#Assad « protège » alors qu’il commet des #crimesdeguerre et #crimescontrelhumanite prouvés pourrait être juridiquement assimilée à l’apologie de ces crimes, et cela est bien pénalement répréhensible.
Pour résumer, triple faute de @LCP 1 Inviter le type (vérification) 2 Le journaliste laisse dire une contre-vérité d’ordre négationniste sans le reprendre (incompétence) 3 Sans voir ce qu’ils diffusent un propos de ce type, leur compte twitter benoîtement reprend.
Et un journaliste qui ne fait pas son travail. Une personne compétente l’aurait au moins repris sur les faits et les présupposés de ses propos. La, rien. Naufrage.
@Marie_Peltier Ici on est dans l’apologie de crimes de guerre & de crimes contre l’humanité @LCP Et je pèse mes mots. Les crimes d’Assad sont minutieusement documentés. Ils font rage à Idlib. Donner la parole à de tels propagandistes, c’est de la pure désinformation. Et c’est 1 débâcle éthique.
