“Free Palestine”: the spectacular tifo of Parisian supporters triggers a passionate controversy
It was to be expected… Applauded, acclaimed in other countries, which nevertheless do not drape themselves ostensibly, cynically, in the banner of human rights, the deployment of a gigantic banner ” Free Palestine » at the Parc des Princes, clearly displaying support for Gaza and its martyred population, triggered an outcry in France.
Held Wednesday evening, at around 8:50 p.m., by the Parisian supporters of PSG (the Auteuil turn), as a curtain raiser, extraordinarily supportive, of the match between PSG and Atlético de Madrid, the spectacular tifo in the colors of Palestine, which featured a Lebanese flag, sparked a passionate controversy. A violent controversy to which the CRIF did more than set the tone. He unsurprisingly stirred her up.
All winds are standing, UEFA and the management of PSG included, against this laudable initiative which highlighted a strong message – “War on the ground, but peace in the world” – all that was missing was the condemnation of Bruno Retailleau, the new right-wing Minister of the Interior, to realize to what extent the humanist myth of France is in trouble. Worse still, it is tainted by submission to the Israeli-American axis which makes it accept the unacceptable, which makes it consent to one of the most appalling contemporary genocides in Gaza.
