Present at the rally organized by Crif at the Trocadero on Monday evening in Paris, the former presidential candidate and the far-right deputies were more than welcome, between selfies, handshakes and hugs.
The crowd, all with blue and white flags tied on their shoulders, and slogans, “Israel will live, Israel will overcome,” chanted as one person. In the middle of this setting, a young woman approaches Edwige Diaz, National Rally (RN) deputy for Gironde: “It’s good that you’re here, you know it’s complicated for the community with your party but your reaction is healthy,” congratulates this activist, a “UEJF” badge, for Union of Jewish Students of France, attached to the blouse. She asks him, “anyway” a selfie before joining his comrades, behind the banner. As if it were natural, in accordance with the instructions issued by the executive office of the far-right party, that several frontist parliamentarians, members of the France-Israel friendship group of the National Assembly, got involved on Monday at the end of afternoon at the rally in support of Israel, organized in particular by the Representative Council of Jewish Institutions of France (Crif).
