Rima Hassan, a French far-left member of the European Parliament, was arrested on Thursday over a comment she posted on X last month about an attack on an Israeli airport in the 1970s, her fellow party member Jean-Luc Melenchon said.
The message was related to the 1972 attack by the Japanese Red Army far-left militant group at Lod airport in Tel Aviv, which resulted in 26 deaths.
It seems the media may not know what her exact comment was yet.
It is not about the number of death, it is about the apology of terrorism from a member of the European Parliament.
When one disagrees with terrorisme doesn’t implies ones accept the genocide in Gaza
The entire EU parliament is straight up materially supporting a genocide but a retweet of resistance goes too far lol. What kind of moral standards do you think there are left?
What was the actual comment she made?

I mean, how many civilians are the IDF shooting in Gaza per day now? Especially with their new execution law?
Why are we supposed to get worked up about 26 deaths over 50 years ago given that context?
Why not both?
Why not both?
Because we can still stop tomorrow’s deaths in Gaza, technically.
The perpetrators are still effectively the same people who committed the crime.
The terrorists of 50 yo are likely already dead, the entire topology of their cause changed. It is pointless.

jfc I’m getting so tired of news not including the critical information
She justified the terrorist attack in 1972 at an Israeli airport
From what I understand she retweeted this but I haven’t seen it confirmed by mainstream media yet
