The French Foreign Ministry responded sarcastically to a video posted by Israeli Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir. The video depicted a genie granting wishes to Gazans, with one wish being to transport them to Paris. The ministry's response stated, "Imagine you have a magic lamp, and you waste your wish on... Ben-Gvir. Even magic cannot remove his entry ban to France." The article suggests that this response might inadvertently benefit Ben-Gvir's political campaign, implying that the French ministry's reaction could be counterproductive.
Ben-Gvir had posted the video on social media, using it as a commentary on the situation in Gaza. The ministry's statement directly referenced the video's premise, highlighting Ben-Gvir's supposed inability to enter France, a country that has previously banned him. The author of the article questions the strategic wisdom of the French Foreign Ministry's public statement, speculating that it could generate more attention and support for Ben-Gvir within Israel.
