Israeli Lawmaker Slams French President Macron Over UN Remarks
Editorial illustration generated by baba News, not a photograph of the event.

Avi Maoz, chairman of the Noam Party and a member of the Knesset, launched a sharp attack against French President Emmanuel Macron following remarks Macron made at the United Nations. Macron had stated that Hamas has never operated in the West Bank, a claim Maoz vehemently disputes.

Maoz accused Macron of being one of France's worst presidents, alleging he has led the country towards becoming an "Islamic caliphate." Maoz further warned that those who deny the existence of terrorism in Israel should not be surprised if terrorism eventually reaches their own doorstep.

The Israeli lawmaker's strong criticism highlights a significant diplomatic rift and differing perspectives on the nature and reach of terrorism, particularly concerning the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
