France is at war against Islamist extremism, warns Le Pen

“France is at war against Islamist extremism,” Front National leader Marine Le Pen tells France’s Channel 2 in an interview Tuesday evening after the funerals of the four victims of Friday’s terror attack. “The first issue is to know who’s your enemy,” Le Pen says.

Hollande called during the rally for unity and was flanked on his left and right by Prime Minister Netanyahu and PA President Abbas. Le Pen’s absence was thus felt as sharply undercutting his message, especially as polls in September found Hollande at an all-time low and Le Pen topping the poll – a first for the right-wing party.
