MARINE LE PEN FACES 3 YEARS IN PRISON FOR POSTING VIOLENT ISIS PHOTOS TO TWITTER

Milo: Citing ‘offensive’ anti-jihadi tweets, a coalition of establishment figures in France is now seeking to jail outsider 2017 presidential candidate Marine Le Pen.

The French Parliament took action to strip National Front leader Le Pen of her immunity from prosecution for posting images deemed too unsettled for consumption by the French public.

 

In 2015, Le Pen tweeted out a series of violent images of the victims of ISIS terrorism, including the decapitated body of U.S. journalist James Foley. She did so in response to a journalist’s comparison of her populist political party to the terrorist organization.

Le Pen later deleted the tweets after complaints from Foley’s family, and stated that she was only seeking to portray “the horrible reality of their crimes.”

“Daesh is THIS!” wrote Le Pen in a post accompanying the graphic images, using the Arabic slur for ISIS.

At the time, a Paris prosecutor launched an investigation into whether or not the tweets violated the country’s laws against distribution of violent images.

  1. Trying this type of obvious hatchett job on La Pen may not have the desired effect that the conservative types are aiming for. It may just tip the balance. France is not unfamiliar with revolution and those establishment types may find themsleves scurying for the exists taking all the treasure they can carry.

  2. Of course I meant to say “establishment” instead of “conservative” in my comment above. If they try to jail her even those that swallowed the lies will hit the streets in her defense.

  3. I quit going to Milo’s blog. The staff writers and moderaters keep deleting my biblical posts. Apparently, the Catholic jihad against Christians is still going strong.
