French far-right leader Le Pen investigated over ISIS tweets
BY BNO NEWS

PARIS: -- French prosecutors have launched an investigation into far-right leader Marine Le Pen after she tweeted graphic images that show killings carried out by Islamic State (ISIS) militants.

The prosecutor’s office in the western Paris suburb of Nanterre told AFP that it had launched an investigation into the tweets over “the dissemination of violent images.” Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said earlier that he had alerted police to look into the tweets.

Le Pen sent out a tweet on Wednesday morning, calling on French journalist Jean-Jacques Bourdin to withdraw his comments that suggested there were “links” between Le Pen’s National Front party and the Islamic State. She went on to tweet three images to Bourdin’s account, each showing executions of ISIS victims.

One tweet showed the bloodied body of American journalist James Foley, with his decapitated head places on his torso.

The people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders.

That is easy.

All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger.

It works the same way in any country.
