Government still refuses to acknowledge link between Muslim immigration and antisemitic acts
A major march against antisemitism was held in Paris on Sunday, November 12th, at the call of the country’s main political forces. Supposed to be a moment of national unanimity, it was the subject of major divisions and, several days later, continues to be the subject of controversy.
Since Hamas attacked Israel, antisemitic acts have exploded in France. The idea of a march against antisemitism gradually gained ground within the various political groupings, until it was officially launched by the two presidents of the assemblies, Macronist Yaël Braun-Pivet for the National Assembly, and Les Républicains Gérard Larcher for the Senate.
