Athletistic / Football. A well-known politician, former French presidential candidate Marine Le Pen, spoke about Al-Ittihad striker Karim Benzema. He was harshly criticized in France for his support for Palestine. The discontent of French politicians was due to the fact that the attacker did not condemn Hamas attacks on Israeli territory and was not outraged by the crimes committed against the French.
“There is no doubt that Mr. Benzema clearly sympathizes with radical Islamism itself. But we have not yet decided that this ideology is banned. Even though we have been demanding it for many years,” quotes the politician on RMC Sport.
An MEP criticized Benzema and described his behavior as “shocking”.
It is curious that Le Pen criticized Benzema a few years ago. Then she invited him to compete for Algeria, not for France.
