On October 16, a high school history teacher in Conflans, a small town near Paris, was killed with a knife on his way home from work. Abdulach Anzorov, an 18-year-old refugee boy who lives in a city 80 km away, was charged with the killer. A Chechen-Russian who moved to France with his family 12 years ago, lived with his parents as a refugee.
At 5:11 p.m., the police found the body of teacher Samuel Pati on a road near the school, found a Chechen boy a few hundred meters from the body and killed him with nine shots. Meanwhile, Twitter posted a photo of the slain teacher (taken around 4:57) and said: “In the name of Allah, I tell Macron, the leader of these disbelievers, that I am one of your hellhounds who dared to destroy Muhammad. Executed … ‘and it was confirmed that the owner of the Twitter account was the boy killed by the police.
It is not known who was the first to report, if no residents have witnessed the scene of a brutal murder near the school, and why the killer hesitated near the body instead of fleeing.
Tragedy
The prelude to the tragedy begins in early October with a class on “freedom of expression” taught by a teacher. High school history teachers also teach ‘citizenship ethics’, and ‘freedom of speech’ is a topic on the official syllabus for this subject. The teacher presented the first thoughts on freedom of expression advocated by Voltaire, who had suffered a lot of censorship as a writer, and spoke of the Charley Evdo terrorist incident, which occurred five years ago, as an example of an incident surrounding freedom of expression in modern history. He proceeded.
The French constitution even gives freedom to ridicule religion through freedom of speech, but nevertheless, it is the case with Charlie Evdo as a good example of a dilemma in reality that can provoke some people and even call terrorism. The discussion brings the children together to find a way to balance the dilemma. The teacher showed me a cartoon of Muhammad that Charley Evdo was wearing at the time, and said that friends who are uncomfortable with these pictures can go out for a while or close their eyes if they wish.
A few days later, a 13-year-old girl who was attending the school handed the class to her father in a rather crude version, which contained incorrect content. An extreme Islamist father viewed his daughter as an anti-Islamic racial attitude, revealed the teacher’s identity through social media three times, portrayed him as a bully, and took group action to expel him from school. What to give was stirred towards parents and the Muslim community.
Schools and education offices intervened and even ordered the police to appear, but the girl’s father did not respond to the mediation or investigation, and communicated closely with the Chechen boy who had contacted him through social media. According to the survey, the girl did not go to school on the school day and therefore did not attend class. Students in class testify that none of the teacher’s attitudes or comments lacked respect for students of a particular religion. He was an enthusiastic and kind teacher, and the main opinion of the teacher is that he did everything possible to awaken the critical spirit of the students. What the Ministry of Education wants to obtain through the civic ethics course is “a free, responsible citizen, with a sense of ethics and a critical spirit.”
Charly Evdo terrorist incident
<샤를리 에브도>It is a magazine that has been complaining about the present, drawing caricatures of politicians, religious and others that symbolize authority and power. Past presidents, as well as Jesus, the Pope, and far-right politicians, have been the target of cartoons.

No one can be delighted to see his caricature, but it has been widely accepted in the name of “ freedom of expression ”, which became the fundamental value of the French Constitution after being registered as a fundamental right in the Declaration of Civil Rights adopted by the French Revolution in 1789.. This freedom to criticize or defend power, those in power, ideas and religion has been seen as one of the means to control the authority of those in power, and has been interpreted as freedom of thought and expression. It is a right that we have never fully had as the National Security Law that was created with the founding of the Republic of Korea in 1948.
But in January 2015, this freedom was threatened by the assassination of Charly Evdo critics who satirize Muhammad by Islamic terrorists. In Islamic countries, blasphemy against Muhammad is a serious crime, but in France “Blasphème” belongs to the freedom of the citizens of the Republic.
In order not to give up the right in the face of the horror threatened by a knife, French citizens took to the streets in January 2015 and October 2020, saying: “I will not give up my freedom” and “I will not abandon the mission of my teacher.”
Weekly preview <마리안느>“Charly Evdo has attacked all religions, all fanatical beliefs, all dogmas without exception. That is freedom of expression, and that is what Samuel Phat wanted to teach his disciples,” he said in a report on October 20. In the midst of self-censorship, he slowly gave up and remembered the forgotten principles.
Macron’s post mortem visit
President Macron, who visited Conflansi that night, defined the case as “terrorist committed by Islamic terrorists” and “the one who harmed the teacher was trying to damage the values of the republic together, and the conflict with the anti-enlightenment accompanied by violence “. The fight will be our existential fight. “

To prevent the fire from being extinguished, the interior minister shared a video of false agitation posted by the girl’s father to shut down the Islamic temple in Pangtang, responsible for spreading hatred in the Islamic community, for six months. He quickly decided to dissolve two Islamist groups that had been involved in smearing the country and expel 231 illegal aliens, believed to have extreme fundamentalist tendencies. In addition, the Ministry of Education decided to award the deceased teacher the Order of the Noeur Reserve and the superintendent of education.
However, the teachers point out why the government, which quickly killed the terrorist immediately after the incident, failed to protect him while the party’s teacher was threatened with murder several times. It is said that awarding a post-mortem medal is just a pointless post-drug visit.
With the government focused on reducing the public sector budget for 15 years, education is the area that has made the greatest sacrifice alongside the medical sector. This is the reason why some teachers raise their anger, which differs from the sordid attitude of handing out medals to medical professionals who have dedicated themselves to rescuing crown patients in murderous conditions, rather than expanding their medical finances. They reaffirmed teachers’ longstanding demands for government, saying that what teachers need is a guarantee of perfect school authority to teach students without being noticed and an environment in which they can work without losing pride.
Islamic community in shock
Like five years ago, the most shameful thing is the Islamic community in France. While some of them have pushed the teacher’s attitude towards racism and urged Chechen children to terrorize, the majority of Muslim citizens respect and share the ideology of the Republic and hope to live in peace here. However, terrorism provides a basis for the far-right movement and provides a legitimate opportunity for the government’s tough attitude towards immigrants and Islam.
The leaders of the Islamic community invited to the French 2 broadcast severely condemned the terrorists’ actions, saying: “All French Muslim communities were in shock and fear.” They declared that “(French Muslims) support the republic and its values”, and called on the Muslim community to “fight terrorism”.

The political use of terror
On Sunday in the Place de la République in Paris, a rally led by teachers’ unions was held. Various governmental factors also attended the rally that day. The square was packed with people so the government quarantine guidelines announced just three days ago: “Don’t let more than six people sit at the table.”
The guidelines related to the crown appeared to have disappeared amid the emergence of Paris, the capital, which was banned at night for fear of the spread of the virus. Terrorism that occurred at the time when opposition voices from the right, center and left overcame the curfew imposed by the government, ignoring the voices demanding democratic quarantine measures without reducing fundamental citizenship based on the judgment of doctors in the place. The government is seriously immersed.
The government is reportedly considering the dissolution of 50 non-Islamic associations in addition to Islamic organizations that have helped spread messages of malicious and hateful attitudes towards teachers. However, just as freedom of expression is a fundamental right, there is the possibility that the government will not find it easy to achieve its will, since “the freedom to form a group” is also a basic right that is well protected.
RN’s Le Pen, from the far-right party, whose presence has diminished after the Green Party’s advance, also made a strong voice because he would lose the opportunity. He proposed the formation of a National Assembly Investigative Committee on terrorism, presented a strategy to reestablish Islam through speeches before the National Assembly, and argued that the government needs to legislate the war against Islam.
It is also noted that France has been relatively generous with refugee recognition for Chechen migrants who have conflicting relationships with Putin’s harsh relationship with the Russian government. Many of them are extreme Islamists and must be expelled.
Currently, 16 people, including the family of the offender, the parents in question and those who have pressured the teacher with him, are being detained and investigated. The Macron government appears to have already engaged in an excessive anti-Islamic offensive, but the reason for stopping it has yet to be established. Terrorism always pays a high price to the rest of the people, but terrorism committed at a time when Coronas already restricts too much freedom gives the powerful a more advantageous weapon.
