“In no case can we accuse the NPA of advocating terrorism,” declared Wednesday October 11 on franceinfo Manuel Bompard, coordinator of La France insoumise, while the New Anticapitalist Party (NPA) is the target of an investigation for advocating terrorism after its press release reaction to the Hamas attack against Israel. Manuel Bompard added that he “does not recognize himself in the press release published by the NPA”

The fact that the New Anti-Capitalist Party“democratic party” is the subject of an investigation for advocating terrorism, “It’s scandalous”, according to the coordinator of France Insoumise, Manuel Bompard.

A press release that goes badly

In a press release released on Saturday October 7, the NPA “recalled his support for the Palestinians and the means of struggle that they have chosen to resist.”

The NPA concludes this press release with the following message: “Intifada!”. Following this publication, the national center for the fight against online hatred (PNLH) of the Paris prosecutor’s office contacted the criminal brigade of the Paris judicial police.

Call for support

For Manuel Bompard, “all democrats must denounce Gérald Darmanin’s desire for dissolution” who announced Tuesday that the party was the target of an investigation in the Quotidien show on TMC.

“The NPA is a democratic party that fights for peace and it is not a party that advocates terrorism,” insisted the coordinator of La France insoumise.
