The Bordeaux-based association “Comité Action Palestine” has been targeted by the Minister of the Interior. Gérald Darmanin wants to request the dissolution of the association and accuses it in particular of “incitement to hatred”, “violence” and “incitement to terrorist acts”.
The government accuses the organisation of ” spreading communiqués” and “reporting on the activities of Palestinian terrorist organisations, in particular Hamas, the Islamic Jihad Movement in Palestine and Hezbollah”. It denounces the statute which states that it “supports all organisations in the fight against Israel, even if they use violence or terrorist methods”.
(…) Several associations from Bordeaux and left-wing parties have also declared their support for the Comité Action Palestine and its president: Parti de Gauche, the trade union Solidaire (SUD), the CGT Éducation or even France insoumise.
Bordeaux residents will also be surprised to learn that this association benefited from “benefits in kind” from the mayor’s office during the time of Alain Juppé ( former minister of state and environment and mayor, editor’s note)!Infos Bordeaux
