Mali: Marine Le Pen and Eric Zemmour humiliated by Internet users on Twitter

The representatives of the extreme right in France and presidential candidates, Eric Zemmour and Marine Le Pen, took up the announcement of the expulsion of the French ambassador to Mali. By making their racist propaganda and cultivating their neocolonial ideology, the two candidates were quickly called to order by Internet users.

“While our soldiers have been sacrificing themselves for 10 years to save the Sahel from the Islamists, the Malian soldiers unable to protect their own country dare to chase our ambassador. President of the Republic, I will make France and our army respected! “, tweeted the head of the National Rally ex National Front.

Internet users were quick to respond to him when faced with the use of these words, which were tragic but also advocated a relationship of dominance over Africa. “No madam, you are here to save your interests in the Sahel, leave Mali,” retorted a Malian.

” France does not recognize the power of Assimi Goita. She no longer has any reason to stay in a Mali ruled by the latter. France should have recalled its ambassador following this declaration, ”replied a French Internet user.

For his part, Gnamien Attoubré, a journalist specializing in governance, conflict management and peace, replied in a tweet that “France is not in Mali to save Malians”. “She is there to correct her stupidities perpetrated in Libya which have deteriorated the security situation in the Sahel” and “to protect her economic interests” as well as “indirectly protect her own borders”, he added.

“You want to chase blacks but when blacks chase you you hurt so it hurts to chase? So you were planning to keep France in Africa by driving Africans out of France? You are an actress. Marion Marechal Le Pen did well to abandon you, ”answered another Internet user to Marine Le Pen.

The polemicist Eric Zemour, with multiple legal cases for hate speech and racial hatred, and also one of the French presidential candidates, also had remarks similar to Marine Le Pen, by estimating that the French soldiers die for Mali and this country humiliates France in return.

“We are fighting to expel the jihadists from Mali, but Mali is expelling our ambassador. Our soldiers are dying for a country that humiliates us! France’s entire African policy needs to be rethought,” tweeted Eric Zemmour.

“If you are really fighting to expel the jihadists in Mali, it is because your army is very weak and even nonexistent. Because before the arrival of the latter, in 2012, the jihadists only had Kidal. But since you’ve been there, the jihadists have taken 80% of Mali, “answered a user.

“And if you didn’t start telling your groups how, by destroying Libya, France + brought + terrorism to Mali and the Sahel,” another Internet user said in response to Eric Zemmour.

Several tweets posted an image listing the Malian fighters who died for France between 1914 and 1918, a total of 11,402 people, in just 2 years.

” Gneugneugneu, 54 French died in Mali against terrorists… “Here is by town and by village the number of Malians who died for France, just during the 14-18 war”, tweeted one of them.

In several tweets from Malians angry at the words of the two representatives of French nationalism, questions such as the assessment of French military presence in 10 years of deployment in Mali have been asked several times.

Remarks were also made on the number of Africans including Malians who died for France during the two world wars in the face of the 54 deaths of French soldiers in Mali since the deployment of the Barkhane force. “You should have done your research before talking about sacrifice,” replied a user to Marine Le Pen.

“Losing 80% of the integrity of its territory during your 10 years of presence, do you call that saving the Sahel from the terrorists you brought back by destroying Libya? How much longer are you going to give a shit about Africans? replied a surfer to Marine Le Pen, stressing that “respect must be reciprocal”.

“Be brave and ask for the withdrawal of French soldiers from Mali and we will see who is dependent on whom. We are today in the dialectic of the settler and the slave. The master has become dependent on his slave,” added journalist Gnamien Attoubré in a tweet appending the reactions of Eric Zemmour, those of Marine Le Pen, but also those of Nicolas Dupont-Aignant and Jean-Luc Mélenchon.

“When you no longer feel comfortable somewhere, you don’t expect to be chased away,” he added, alluding to the fact that French diplomacy has remained in Mali despite the two coups d’etat that she denounced and did not recognize the military junta, in addition to her disapproval of the arrival of Wagner’s Russian mercenaries.
