(European Conservative) A renowned French university professor finds himself caught up in turmoil for having expressed his opposition to the holding of an Islamic breaking of the fast on the premises of the Lumière University Lyon 2 (Lyon-2). Prevented from teaching and the victim of harassment, he has filed a complaint. He has made clear his intention to engage in a trial of strength against these attempts at intimidation, which once again demonstrate the hold of Islamism in French higher education.
On April 1st, Fabrice Balanche, director of research in political geography at the university, considered one of France’s leading experts on Syria, was the victim of an intrusion during one of his lectures. About twenty individuals, some of them wearing hoods, entered the room, attacked him, brandishing placards, and forced him to leave the premises. The professor was insulted, called a “Zionist” and a racist — to the applause of a few students who had taken the troublemakers’ side.
