The editor was fired from France-Soir . . . . and here's why (from the article you linked):

The managing editor of France Soir, Jacques Lefranc, was fired after the publication by owner Raymond Lakah, an Egyptian magnate, employees said. No official reason was immediately announced.

. . . surprise, surprise, surprise!

The article's also correct that Catholics put up with a LOT worse . . .

Well that explains it. Nice to know some of the other European papers aren't being intimidated.

Please note that Ramy Lakah is a Coptic Christian.
