Unfortunately, the French National Front really is a bad organization. It is "right wing" in the European mold--anti-American, anti-Jewish, and anti-Israel. At one time it was pro-moslem.
Unfortunately, American conservatives are very naive and tend to imagine that "far right" individuals/groups elsewhere are simply the local chapter of Young Americans for Freedom. Unfortunately, that is not so.
But sadly this is the result of what happened last month in Paris.

They don’t look so bad. In fact, they look like us.
Unfortunately too many of the French are anti-Israel and anti-Jewish. Vichy France didn’t much mind cooperating with the Nazis on that issue. And the French have been in the forefront of the EU and the UN working against Israel.
But I agree, the French National Front has its problems.
On the other hand, I agree with them on the issue of the EU.
