“Jews of France, don’t let yourself be fooled,” says Alexis Corbière

“Jews of France, don’t let yourselves be misled by these people”launched Alexis Corbière, La France insoumise deputy for Seine-Saint-Denis, Thursday November 16 on franceinfo, questioned about the presence of members of the National Rally, including Marine Le Pen, at the march against anti-Semitism last Sunday. “It’s bullshit (…) they’re liars,” he accused.

According to Alexis Corbière, the presence of the far right in the Parisian march may have slowed down the desire of certain citizens to come and march. “There are people who want to demonstrate against anti-Semitism, but they are a little piqued at the idea of ​​having to do so alongside Éric Zemmour and Marine Le Pen who continue to broadcast their racist speeches against our fellow citizens of Muslim faith”argued the rebellious deputy.

Reason why LFI refused to participate in the Paris march. Alexis Corbière demonstrated in Strasbourg, “where there was a clear call that people who spread hate messages are not welcome.” “I also understand that people have questions.” to the idea of “demonstrate against anti-Semitism with Zemmour who explains that Marshal Pétain saved the Jews, with Ms. Le Pen who was spokesperson, campaign director of Jean-Marie Le Pen who was the main transmitter of anti-Semitic speeches in the society by saying that the gas chambers were a detail of history.”

For Alexis Corbière, the National Rally today, even if it has changed its discourse, “is not clear” about anti-Semitism. “At the 50th anniversary of the National Front, they invited Bruno Gollnisch to the platform. Gollnisch, who was one of the great disseminators of anti-Semitic words, they invited him so it’s bullshit”recalled the deputy. “Now, their little hatred is mainly focused against Muslims and they want to make people believe that they have abandoned anti-Semitic hatred, but that contributes to the fracturing of the country,” he lashed out, recognizing that “the trivialization of the extreme right that we are witnessing today” worries her “because it creates the conditions for a possible victory tomorrow and that would be terrible for our country.”
