France’s Muslim community seeks protection from ‘anti-Islam crusades’ – FRANCE 24
France’s Muslim community has called on President François Hollande to make “a solemn statement” to stem what it sees as anti-Islam crusades. Libération leads on that and also has an interview with Abdelghani Merah, brother of Toulouse gunman Mohamed Merah, who condemns Salafist hatred. We also look at a proposed new “exit tax” on companies that re-locate abroad. That’s the focus for this look at the French press on Friday 9th November, 2012.
