France on Saturday condemned “indiscriminate fire” by the Israeli army in the latest border clashes that left nine Palestinians dead in the Gaza strip.
“France reiterates its strong disapproval of the indiscriminate fire of the Israeli army. All possible light must be shed on these serious events,” Agnes von der Muhll, spokeswoman for the French foreign ministry, said in a statement. […]
“France calls on the authorities concerned to exercise the utmost restraint and stresses that the use of force must be proportionate, in accordance with international humanitarian law to prevent further victims,” the statement added. …

They need to tell the Muslim terrorists to stand down. That’s who is causing the problems.
They sure will never do that.
And since just about all of the deaths, if not all, were Hamas terrorists, the response was “proportional”. Not that victory depends on “proportional responses” but overwhelming ones, though; they admit that they never want Israel to be victorious.
The only issue I have with Israeli security forces is that they exercise too much restraint.
According to the French we should all play dead.
France has her own ‘Muslim Problem’.
Straighten your own back yard up first before trying to manage others.
1. No Western Ally of WWII more easily gave up her Jews to the Nazis.
2. They have to placate their current growing Radical Islamic population.
Count on the French to surrender.
And condemn country that dares to protect it’s borders and citizens.
In which case, the response was “disproportional” only in the sense that it was not strong enough.
Q: How many Frenchmen does it take to defend Paris?
A: No one knows, it’s never been tried.
And the slaughter of civilians in Israel by Hamas is conveniently forgotten/ignored by Paris.
Didn’t the French anti-terror cops indiscriminately fire about ten thousand rounds into a condo after Charlie Hebdo? I remember the Israelis at the time giving them a well-deserved gentle elbow nudge and a remark about ‘exercising restraint’.
I seriously doubt that it was indiscriminate fire, I’m sure the Israelis knew exactly what they were doing.
The French army didn’t use proportionate restraint in Indochina and in Algeria.
France should mind its own business.
So, Francistan condems Israel from protecting its borders, eh?
For d*mn sure, Francestan doesn’t give a Dorkbama about its own borders.
Israeli .22cal Snipers are just getting some practice
Hey Paris, don’t you have some car fires to put out or something?
So Israeli should send "journalists" to burn tires and throw Molotov cocktails?
They’ve yet to figure out how those Bataclan terrorists got around their super-strict gun control laws. You know, the same kind of laws that David “Boss” Hogg wants here.
France tends to always pick the wrong side. They also are slowly becoming a European Islamic State as are England and Germany. Is it quite plausible to think that the USA and allies will have to save Europe again one day?
