- tivert 2y ago>> Are you claiming she's actually promoting jihadism by opposing it? > no, i'm claiming she's promoting herself by promoting jihadism You're being really unclear, and the straightforward meaning of what you wrote is certainly untrue. From what I know about Marine Le Pen, she's almost certainly not "promoting jihadism" (say, as in encouraging people to join ISIS), which is the most straightforward reading. I think you probably mean she's "promoting jihadism [as a problem]," but that's boringly typical thing for politicians to do. They pretty much always promote themselves as the solution to some problem (that they often also elevate), so people choose to vote for them to solve it. The opposite is also frequently true, where other politicians attempt to play down their opponents' chosen issues in order to promote their own.
- croisillon 2y agoi don't know why you care to defend her so much. far right are the best allies of jihadism, some people from her own party sold the weapons that served later in terrorist attacks
