The Ballon d’Or thing is insignificant. Accusing Benzema of having connections with Muslim Brotherhood is a much more serious accusation. And to say that he’ll withdraw the accusation if he tweets xyz thing I want just shows you the current situation in France. It is despicable from this guy. That he is a minister just makes the situation even more ridiculous.

It has nothing to do with the ballon d’or or his football ability at all. Not sure why you think that

I was responding to OP who brought up the BdO thing. My comment literally downplays the BdO thing.

As for OP, they are most likely conflating it with the statements made by Valerie Boyer who said Benzema’s BdO should be stripped.

Didn’t mean to respond to you. Actually thought i was responding the other guy

Free speech in the west only exists if it fits their narrative. It’s disgusting

Yes the west should learn from china, iran and russia

not really, Benzema could sue the minister for defamation and would most probably win

in the west

As opposed to? Please just one example, so we can all have a good laugh.

Also TIL the actions of one western country reflect on all like 70 of them.

r/soccer out here every day breaking records for the most bias you can insert into the least amount of words.

If you Pat yourself on the back about how important it is to be able to offend Muslims…at least be fucking consistent.

Yeah , this is a very sweeping statement. Are you trying to say that people in the east ( Russia , China and the Arab gulf) have more freedom of speech?
