Benzema expressed his support for Palestine amid an escalating conflict with Israel.
“There is no social media account with 20 million followers on which a post can be harmless. Benzema condemned the unjust bombing of the Gaza Strip. No one can condemn him for protecting the Palestinian people.
The Premier League has banned the display of Israeli and Palestinian flags during matches.
But it was deeply shocking that his message was exclusively targeted. He is a Frenchman born in Lyon. And he made no mention of the French victims, notably the hostages held in the Gaza Strip.
Benzema did not condemn terrorism, he did not condemn heinous crimes and attacks on Israeli territory,” quotes the RMC Sport MP.
