Mbappe Urges French Youth to Vote to Defeat 'Extremists'
Yahoo! ^ | Mon, June 17, 2024

''We know we're at a very important moment in the history of our country, an unprecedented situation. That's why I really want to address the French people and especially the young generation. I think we are a generation that can make the difference. We see today that the extremists are at the gates of power. We have the opportunity to choose the future of our country. That's why I call upon the youth to go out and vote, to really be aware of the importance of this situation. I hope to use my voice as best I can because you need to be able to identify with your country. We need to identify with our values which are the values of diversity, tolerance, respect. That's undeniable. I know a lot of young people say 'one (election) won't change anything'. On the contrary every one matters. This isn't trivial. I really hope we make the right choice and I hope we're still proud to wear this jersey on the seventh (of July)."

Usual questions about the challenge Austria might pose in the Group D clash in Duesseldorf were relegated at the pre-match media conference with Mbappe speaking openly about his fears.

"This is a never-seen-before event," Mbappe, France's talisman, told reporters. "And that is why I want to talk to the whole of the French people, but also the youth.

For those of you in Rio Linda, Mbappe is the best French soccer player. He helped them win the World Cup in 2018. He played on the Paris pro team, but just moved to playing pro ball in Spain.

Either that, or Mbappe is a song by Hansen.

The extremists are on the left. I hope this POS is triple vaxxed.

Well, he may have been referring to both. What the centrists consider the “far right” and “far left” are both supposed to have the best chances of winning the next election.

“Either that, or Mbappe is a song by Hansen.”

I have to admit it. Hanson was my first thought.

Surprisingly, Mbappe is a Christian, I thought for sure he was a Muslim.

He got his nose bloodied in today’s game against Austria.

Shut up and dribble.

He’s a great player, should know better than to speak on such topics. People are done with celebrity opinions on politics, they don’t represent their own reality on the ground.

And this is what their children are taught:

Little children, time to learn your A B C’s of Islam, of being good little slaves of Allah:

A is for allah

B is for beheading

C is a letter to follow C

D is for Dar al islam as well as Dar al Harb

H is for Hijra, hijab and for Halal, but also Haram

I is for islam as well as for islamophobia (even though there’s no such thing)

J is for Jihad and jizya tax

K is for Kuffar

M is for muhammad, peace be upon him

Q is for Qital, meaning armed fighting in the way of allah, islam’s never ending Holy War against the Kuffar, the apostate, the hypocrites and each other

S is for Shahada, Salat, Sunni and Shia, and Shirk and the list goes on

T is for Takbir and Takfir — do be a Takbiri, not a Takfiri — as well as Taqiyya

Z is for Zakat

Just remember “J” is the most important letter in your alphabet, and never forget the penalty for apostasy from Islam is death. Goodnight little children.

Turns out he broke his nose in today’s game. Questionable for the Netherlands game.

That was a nasty injury. That ball really slammed into his face.

If not for that ridiculous own goal by Austria, the result would have been better. Harry Maguire would be proud of that own goal.

I’m proud of Slovakia for their upset over Belgium.

Mbappe looked like he got his nose broke today in a EuroCup match against Austria.

Extremists... The extremists of the left are allied with the extremists of Islam... Anyone who opposes this alliance are called extremists of the right.

Things fall apart, the center does not hold...
