Pro-Palestine Protests Explode In French Parliament; Macron Refuses To Back 'Emotional Recognition'

French government is witnessing mega revolt against its support for Israel. More and more pro-Palestine protests are being held across the country. In a new development, a French lawmaker has been suspended after he held up a Palestinian flag in Parliament. The incident happened in the lower chamber during a heated debate on whether France should recognise Palestinian statehood. LFI MP Sebastien Delogu stood up with the Palestinian flag during questions to the government. Meanwhile, Emmanuel Macron has refused to make an emotional decision on recognition.

It's time for the west to wake up

[melissaw]

I remember France also provides weapons to Israel along with US and UK…

[cherylahmat]

The damned, those condemned souls and their love of lies, thievery and murder.

[jrrkxeo]

They worry for a piece of cloth, not Genocide. Unbelievable

[wanwanmahmud]

Brave hearts are everywhere. Thanks God.

[aminmalik]

If he raised an Israeli flag he wouldn't be suspended

[niramalalingam]

Keep Palestine politics out of France take it to Saudi Arabia

[carolineclements]

Fully support this lawmaker. How anyone can support Israel is totally beyond me!

[loveUK]

Right now the terrorist are not called terrorist but the others who do not succumb to these violent protesters. What a mess.

[tariqghuary]

These people went to the civilized Europe on the boats and now they play victim card, shame on

[jamiah_alias]

Suspended? For supporting the truth? This is madness!

Someone commented if he raised an Israeli flag he would not have been suspended; the reason for this is clear because by raising the Israeli flag he would have been doing the correct thing. Raising the Palestinian flag makes him stupid. Long live Israel 🇮🇱

[bdlnson]

God bless Israel God bless Israel God bless Israel

[iqnmxub]

Sent all them back Palestine, then no more protesters, lol

[jacobxj]

Thank you Mp Delogu, France citizens,
Thank you Spain, Ireland and Norway

[konsamjames]

Its beyond my comprehension that why do muslims all over the world are turning blind eye towards the fact that that it was the hamas act which started this whole thing. It is anyone's right to strike back for revenge.

[marcuslawrence]

Tell them to go to Palestine.
As France ain't Palestine.

[megajen]

I totally agree that France should support Palestine as a free state, but I believe a line has been crossed when one comes with a foreign flag in the French House.

[mohammedimran]

Thank you to all the MP who are supporting Palestinian cause, May almighty bless you 🙏🏼

[Ayush_Jha]

Most of the world already recognises Palestine. Is that not enough?
