"All along, French policymakers have been divided between a desire to make a deal with terror groups in the hope of securing immunity and the necessity of fighting them with all it takes.
In the 1970s, France purchased immunity for its civilian aircraft by providing regular unofficial “financial contributions” to Palestinian groups involved in the business of hijacking.
In the 1980s, Paris bought an end to Tehran-sponsored terror attacks, which had claimed dozens of lives in Paris and other cities, by releasing over a million dollars in frozen Iranian assets.
In the 1990s, Algerian terror groups were bribed into offering immunity to France by a decision to ignore their fundraising and recruiting activities on French territory."

"Thus, France was the first Western power to impose a ban on arms exports to Israel, and the first to allow Yasser Arafat’s Palestine Liberation Organization to open an “embassy” in its capital.
In 1996, a French refusal to put several organizations including Hezbollah and Hamas on a terrorist list prevented the adoption of a G-7 agreement on 45 measures to combat global terrorism."

France has done precious little to stem the growing tide of Jew-hatred and anti-Israelism that has gripped that country. The result, the Jews exodus, the Muslim build Islamic cultural communities...


"On Dec. 2, the French parliament voted overwhelmingly to demand that the French government immediately recognize the “State of Palestine.” Not after negotiations. Not with Israel’s agreement. Just do it right away, whether the Israelis like it or not. And the vote wasn’t even close—339 in favor, 151 against." Appease one, ignore the other....

But what appeasement has France given to Muslims inside France? I believe that was the question at hand, wasn't it? The radicals within France, as opposed to those without. Frances viewpoint on the Israel/Palestine issue is one thing, Frances viewpoint on Islam within France is another.
