Who tried to assassinate Fillon?
Published in Albawaba on 20 - 04 - 2017

The emergence of French politician François Fillon has created a stumbling block against the expansion of radical Islamic organizations with its international support in France. If
Fillon became the new president of France, he would threaten the Muslim Brotherhood in particular and its organizational ties. In January, Fillon criticized the existence of the Brotherhood in France despite being designated as terrorist in Egypt.
He called for taking precautionary measures to limit the Islamists' influence in the country and put an end to the terrorist attacks series targeted French cities in the recent years.
In one of his interviews, Fillon seemed full aware of the dangers of radical groups which claim moderation in public and incite extremism secretly. He hinted that he know very well the countries that support terrorism.
Fillon called for dissolving all organizations affiliated with the Brotherhood in the country, unless the French people will be in danger.
He referred to the close relations between the Brotherhood and Qatar saying: "We should know that this country finances terrorism and hosts on its territory all the leaders of radical Islam."
According to Thomas Gumart, director of the Russian studies department at the French Institute of International Relations, Fillon is interested in defending Christians in the Middle East, and he will support the Russian intervention in Syria.
There were signs of a growing rapprochement between Fellon and the Russian leader Vladimir Putin between 2008 and 2012. Putin once said that Fellon is a man of principle.
On the other hand, the French politician believes that Muslims around the world should revolt against the rise of extremism and religious radicalism, and help France to stop this trend especially among young people. He also called for observing Imams and Friday ceremonies by the state to ensure that they are not exploited to incite terrorism.
I'm wondering if there is anyone who wants to get rid of Fillon more than those who are afraid of his existence in the political scene. Fellon will play the same role of Donald Trump in America, creating an anti-extremism current that will eliminate the Brotherhood and Qatar's evil plans in the Middle East.
