“After Montreal trip blocked, Rima Hassan arrested in France over social media post”
not a great rule considering how much clickbait even reputable news outlets engage in these days… can see it a bit even in this one…
The knife cuts both ways, in this case the post title is ragebait
the post title is ragebait
Seems like the events are rage bait

not really a solution when most of the news media engages in it and it’s not abour reliability per se, just about ambigous titles designed to make people click.
I’ve changed the title.
Thank you!
5 hours later. How much time we talking?
I generally give at least 8 hours because people need to, you know, sleep and work and stuff. OP fixed it at 8 hours.
Only anti-Semites confuse anti-Semitism with anti-Zionism.
the conspiracy fantasies adopted by most commies happily conflate israel with the jews that control the world like the top comment in this post:
why do israel control what people say
the fantasy being that by some magical control mechanism the french government and laws are affected by??
stop hiding and playing this shell game just say what you really think
and as we know this antisemitic global conspiracy fantasy was invented by russia during the cold war - the home of poisonous communism
AIPAC literally funds American electoral candidates. The Western empire has a lot of interest vested in Israel. This is why Israel can still function as a settler-colonial state. It’s not the evli “commies” plotting against anyone.
You can join the IDF to commit genocide (and call for people to do so in synagoges), but woe to anyone praising the resistance.
You can join the IDF, do war crimes, run for office in both major American political parties, and scream antisemitism if anyone suggests being a member of a foreign military implies duel loyalty.
But woe to anyone recounting historical events
She’s praising a terrorist attack against civilians. That’s not resistance, that’s terrorism. If you’re going to pretend to care human rights then it has to be universally applied otherwise you’re just a hypocrite.
Lawmaker, she’s a MEP.
So at least the European Parlament should issue a statement.What was the actual comment she made?
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.
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

This whole thing is Orwellian, but nothing more so imo than when stories like this report that someone was arrested for speech but doesn’t actually tell us what the offending speech was.
I think it’s pretty obvious that they know that they’ll get in trouble with the same people if they share the message. It’s quite sad.

Roughtly translated she wrote : Kozo Okamoto. I dedicated my whole life to the palestinian cause. When there is oppression, resistance is not only a right but a duty.
Kozo Okamoto is a japanese terrorist who killed civilians in a terrorist attack in 1972.
The apology of terrorism is illegal in France.
She is a member of the european Parliamant.
I hope these informations help to understant the context.
Thanks for posting the actual material. Well, that’s not looking great.
I don’t believe struggles can be fought without violence, that’s just what the naive and the supporters of the status quo want everyone to think. But when someone decide their contribution to a cause is to be an MP, they should either abide by the principles behind it or choose a different course of action. Just my 2ct obviously.
Wow, I’ll admit my guess was wrong: that’s a pretty clear endorsement of terrorism. I still don’t think she should be arrested.
Also I think it’s terrible journalism that they didn’t say specifically what she posted. That’s necessarily context. Thanks for sharing it.
She quoted someone who took part in a terrorist attack. I wonder if anyone will be arrested for quoting any of Israel’s “founding fathers”, or indeed anyone like Netanyahu or Ben-Gvir.
The empire wears no clothes
She was denied a visa to Canada after she was asked two questions
-
Did any country ever deny you a visa? (Yes)
-
Did you ever face lawsuits? (Yes)
Instead of answering the truth, she answered “No” to both questions.
In an online post, she argued she did that because “I think these questions aren’t legitimate”.
That was a major mistake
Immigration Canada really doesn’t give a shit about what you think.
You should never lie on a federal immigration form. That’s called misrepresentation. Any foreigner who engages in misrepresentation will face denial of entry into Canada (Article 40, Canadian Law on Immigration).
When Immigration Canada discovered this, her visitor visa was automatically cancelled.
Any chance you can provide a source on that? It sounds believable, but it’s not mentioned in the article OP posted, and I can’t find anything else that confirms it. All reporting I’ve read says that CBSA refused to comment (as expected, since it concerns private information).
People like her that being self righteous assholes makes them exempt from the law.
Israel isn’t a country
-
She crossed a line praising the Lod massacre perpetrators. It was not an attack on the IDF, it was an indiscriminate attack on random people in an airport.
That said, we live in an era where criminal and genocidal language is spewed by the leaders of Israel, the US, and other countries. If only the same high standards were applied to them too.
I love that we never get to see the tweet, click bait article
I looked, it was deleted so the news sites are only able to paraphrase.
The tweet that she retweeted is posted in this thread, but not whether she had added commentary of her own
deleted by creator
It’s strange how this article mentions she is pro-palestiniens and forgot to mention she is from Palestinian decent. Overall this article doesn’t provide much information about what has happened and why. Which tweet were used to accuse her ?
lol, those assholes won’t let you in if you had a DUI 20 years ago.
Fuck 'em, stay out and go spend your money in Mexico, it’s a much nicer place.
Yep and I fully support banning people with reckless behaviour that endangers Canadian lives.
They let the pitching coach of the Toronto Blue Jays in.
Stop sending the drunkards down here I guess? Every Canadian I’ve encountered in the 'states is a fucking mess…
