France: Muslim cemetery desecrated with swastikas and racist slogans | Islamophobia Watch
By Bob Pitt

The French press is reporting that a Muslim cemetery in Carros near Nice has been desecrated. Swastikas were sprayed on nine graves and the slogans “Arabs out” and “Long live Le Pen” on the cemetery wall.
In the first round of the presidential election the Front National candidate Marine Le Pen topped the poll in this Socialist-run commune with 27.12% of the vote, ahead of Sarkozy on 26.97% and Hollande on 22.27%.
A press release by the UOIF condemns the desecration, pointing out that this is not an isolated case but a manifestation of the rising tide of Islamophobia in France.
Meanwhile a Front National spokesperson has claimed that the graffiti could well be the work of Muslim youth acting at the behest of politicians who want to discredit the FN.
I don’t mind leaving this world at this point.
The people who did this are clearly scholars - they have trouble drawing swastikas on a Muslim cemetery.
The Xenophobia in France right now is a perfect example of what happens when politicians not only don’t put the far-right in check but try to accommodate them for political gain.
Swastikas in a Muslim Cemetery.
Let me just review my history books…
Marine Le Pen needs to teach some of her supporters how to draw swastikas and how to avoid disturbing the place of the dead.
My grandmother lives in France and has been planning to be buried in France. I don’t believe my mother and I would allow that to happen anymore. This is ridiculous.

Why do they do this to me?
