«Breaking News» French writer behind theory New Zealand mosque killer named in manifesto denounces 'idiotic act'

The French writer who popularised a theory that European populations are being supplanted by immigration, alluded to by the gunman who killed 49 at two New Zealand mosques on Friday, denounced an 'appalling' act by someone who had failed to understand his work.

Renaud Camus published in 2011 The Great Replacement, which the Christchurch gunman used as the title of a 74-page 'manifesto' uploaded to the web before storming the mosques.

'I am totally non-violent,' the 72-year-old Camus told AFP, saying the arrested 28-year-old Australian suspect had committed 'appalling, criminal, disastrous and idiotic terrorist acts'.

French writer Renaud Camus has denounced the New Zealand white supremacist terrorist who was inspired by his work, calling him 'idiotic' 

'If he wrote a pamphlet titled "The Great Replacement" it's blatant plagiarism... of a phrase that doesn't belong to him and he doesn't understand,' said Camus.

The writer, who is also a gay rights activist, lives in a 14th-century chateau in southwest France.

In 2015 he was convicted of inciting hatred and violence against Muslims.

A range of far-right groups have seized on his ideas to promote a conspiracy theory that native populations in the West are being replaced by political and corporate leaders, robbing a country of its cultural heritage in the process.

Many white supremacists have promoted violent resistance to the so-called 'invasion' by non-whites, a term used repeatedly by the New Zealand gunman in his manifesto.

It is said to have been one of the ideas that drove the Pittsburgh Synagogue killer, who shot 11 Jewish worshippers in the US city in October.

But Camus, while defending the theory, rejected suggestions that his writings could have encouraged the gunman.

'What worries me the most in what I call "The Great Replacement" is precisely the extent to which it encourages violence, all kinds of violence, either in everyday life or, obviously, in terrorist attacks,' he said.

'At the centre of my work is the concept of innocence, which is to say, of non-aggravation, non-violence,' he added.

Camus suggested instead that the killer might have taken inspiration from the wave of attacks carried out by self-proclaimed Islamic jihadists in France over recent years.

'His crime most resembles the terrorist attacks committed in France,' he said.

'I don't see why he would be more inspired by me than by the attacks which directly resemble the one he committed,' he said.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
