Muslims conquer Victory Plaza in Clermont-Ferrand, France, rename it “Nakba Place”

Posted on by

The Victory Square is the forecourt of the Notre-Dame-de-l’Assomption Cathedral.
Also on that square ther’s a fountain topped by the statue of Pope Urban II, who launched the first crusade in Clermont in 1095. This work of the sculptor Henri Gourgouillon was raised in 1898.

Thank you Ava Lon for the investigative work that gave this video its dire context.

  1. I think we can safely assume that the town of Clermont is now officially Islamic.

  2. “Medieval Sourcebook: Urban II (1088-1099): Speech at Council of Clermont, 1095, Five versions of the Speech” – Fordham University

    Excerpt:

    In 1094 or 1095, Alexios I Komnenos, the Byzantine emperor, sent to the pope, Urban II, and asked for aid from the west against the Seljuq Turks, who taken nearly all of Asia Minor from him. At the council of Clermont Urban addressed a great crowd and urged all to go to the aid of the Greeks and to recover Palestine from the rule of the Muslims. The acts of the council have not been preserved, but we have five accounts of the speech of Urban which were written by men who were present and heard him.
