Double standards on French media about UK Riots

The French media seem to be very understanding towards the British rioters. 

Can what happened in the United Kingdom spread to the rest of Europe and why?

Most of the French media have been very lenient with the situation in the United Kingdom, and some commentators have not hesitated to make excuses for the rioters, drawing parallels with the situation in France. 

Thus, Anne-Elisabeth Moutet, a French columnist for the Daily Telegraph, did not hesitate to say on the France 5 television channel that the British made a mistake by voting for Brexit because it only slowed down European immigration rather than non-European immigration. 

She continues by stating that Poles go to the United Kingdom to work and, unlike other immigrants, do not need to be taught English. 

This is completely false since more than 80% of immigrants in the United Kingdom come from the Commonwealth and speak English perfectly well. 

Sometimes, this language is even the official language of their country of origin, like India and Pakistan. 

The French journalist adds that these non-European immigrants need to be housed and depend on benefits, which is again totally false. 

Numerous studies have shown that what attracts immigrants to the United Kingdom is not social benefits, but the dynamism of its employment market. 

Similar comments could be heard at the beginning of the war in Ukraine. French media welcomed blond-haired, blue-eyed immigrants in France, unlike refugees from Syria or Africa… 

Despite the many counter-protests against violence and racism, that have multiplied all across the country and have shown the whole world that these rioters were only a minority, the French media have claimed that the sole rioters truly represent the British people. 

For a long time, the French have criticized the Anglo-Saxon model of a society that encourages multiculturalism. 

They defend the French model which insists on assimilation by erasing individual cultural particularities, especially religious confessions. 

Ignoring the fact that these rioters are only a minority, some of whom have now been jailed, is a way for them to highlight their model by claiming that it works better.

Not a word on the fact that some rioters were even considered to be terrorists. 

In the meantime, French Muslim citizens who have been deprived of the Olympics have been fleeing the country en masse in recent years. 

We are witnessing a resurgence of these far-right movements throughout Europe. What characterizes and differentiates them from their predecessors is their proximity to the Zionist entity as well as to the LGBT lobby. 

Zionists no longer hesitate to push Jews in France to vote for the Rassemblement National, the main far-right group in France, although historically this party is their sworn enemy. 

Indeed, Jean-Marie Le Pen described the Holocaust as a mere detail of History

During the last French elections, some French Jews openly supported the far-right, today considered as a protection against the Islamisation of France but also a stop to the support of the Palestinian cause. 

More and more far-right parties are winning presidential elections, -this is the case in Italy with Georgina Meloni- and islamophobic acts are becoming increasingly significant.

Has Europe become a dangerous territory for Muslims? 

The former Scottish Prime Minister Humza Yousaf, questions the future of his family in the United Kingdom, and many British Muslims, for the first time in their lives, are considering exile. 

While many French Muslim families had bet on the United Kingdom as a land of welcome and tolerance for them and their children, it seems that beyond France, it is the whole of Europe that seems to be questioning their presence in its midst. 

Sharing the Message and understanding Islam by Muslims and non-Muslims alike seems to be a fundamental step if we want to continue to live safely in European countries.
