In France, the land of liberty, equlity and fraternity, to say a bad word about Islam means a hefty fine and court appearance - and no one who dares to defend you.
The controversy began with his intervention in September 2016 on the broadcast “C à vous”. Éric Zemmour was then immediately sued at the 17th Criminal Court of the Paris Court. He must respond to the alleged offense of “incitement to discrimination and hatred against people of Muslim faith”. The lawsuit is promoted by the EuroPalestine Association.
Zemmour is in trouble for a few sentences, such as the ones describing Muslims as those who “have to choose between Islam and France”, saying that “Jihad is a religious duty”, that “Muslims consider jihadists as good Muslims” and that “moderate Islam does not exist”. Ideas. Ideas are debatable in a European pluralist democracy proud of the free circulation of ideas, as well as goods and people. But these ideas are becoming forbidden in France.
Thus, Zemmour was sentenced of incitement to hatred and a fine of 5,000 euros. 8,000 spectators lodged a complaint at the State Council for Audiovisual. It is not the first conviction that Zemmour suffers for his ideas about France and Islam. In 2014, in an interview with the Italian daily Il Corriere della Sera, he said that France’s estimated five million Muslims should be “deported” to avoid “chaos and civil war”.

French, Euroweenies and muslims are scum......
Islam est merde. There I did it.
France has been sold out. Fin. Done. Kaput
Much of Europe, the UK, and Canada is already done and over with. They are like the walking dead; they just don’t know it yet.
It’s easy to see from here but they can’t see it when it’s right in front of them or they refuse to. That is a common leftist trait.
Yes. USA not far behind
They may maintain an illusion they are free, but this shows they are not. They are in the process of willingly surrendering their liberty.
Oh remind me of how close we came to annihilation if puke had been elected. I thank God every morning.
Bernie, puke(hilary) all are being exposed and Trump will turn out to be the best President in History.....
