“Danièle Obono had a clumsy expression which deserved to be corrected”, regretted this Tuesday on franceinfo the MEP La France insoumise Manon Aubry, after the LFI MP described Hamas as “resistance movement” For “the liberation of Palestine”. “I do not agree with these comments but they do not represent the position of La France insoumise”declares Manon Aubry.

After this speech by Danièle Obono, the Minister of the Interior Gérald Darmanin announced that he was referring the matter to the public prosecutor “for apology for terrorism”. “Hamas is not the expression of Palestinian resistance”, assures Manon Aubry, referring to an organization which “even distorts the legitimate Palestinian cause”. According to her, Hamas is “an Islamist organization, listed as terrorist by the European Union since 2003”.

“Darmanin sees every opportunity to jump to nail a nail on LFI”

“Secondly, Hamas has committed despicable, barbaric, atrocious crimes, which are war crimes which must be tried by the International Criminal Court“. Finally, according to the LFI MEP, “Hamas is an organization that perverts the Palestinian cause and the legitimate struggle of a people who aspire to live in a secure state”.

However, according to the MEP, “Gérald Darmanin sees every opportunity to jump to nail a nail on La France insoumise. This political political game is quite far from the dramas that are being played out at the moment”.
