aus der englischsprachigen Version:
In a January 2015 essay, Baraka described the Republican march in Paris in reaction to the Charlie Hebdo shooting as a "white power march," and the Je suis Charlie movement in general as an "arrogant rallying cry for white supremacy".[47] Baraka condemned what he perceived as the disproportionate interest in the Charlie Hebdo attacks, and the relative lack of interest in the Baga massacre in Nigeria by Boko Haram, which took place days before the Charlie Hebdo shooting and resulted in many more deaths. Baraka also criticized the "degrading ritual" of assimilation that Arabs and Muslims undergo in France, the "arrogant lack of respect for the ideas and culture of non-European peoples" that led to the French ban on face covering in public spaces, and the "racist" and "Islamophobic" character of Charlie Hebdo's recent publications.[47]
Baraka's "Je suis Charlie" article was republished in January 2016 in an anthology about the November 2015 Paris attacks. The book, titled ANOTHER French False Flag? Bloody Tracks from Paris to San Bernadino, was edited by Kevin Barrett, a Holocaust denier and 9/11 conspiracy theorist.[34] Baraka also has appeared at least twice on Barrett's radio show.[34] Other contributors to the anthology (including controversial figures such as Gilad Atzmon and Alain Soral)[34] posited "that the Charlie Hebdo attacks and many others were perpetrated by the CIA and Mossad" as "false flags."[48] Yair Rosenberg of Tablet described the work as a "veritable who's who of bigots and conspiracy theorists."[48]
In August 2016, Baraka said that he had been unaware both of Barrett's Holocaust beliefs and of the views of some of the book's other contributors.[34] In a statement, Baraka said that he would be "happy to discuss the details" of his own writing, but that he rejected any "smear campaign" based on the authors and contents of the rest of the book.[34] Jill Stein campaign press director Meleiza Figueroa also clarified that Baraka is not a Holocaust denier.[34]
