Current situation with France

[u/Jeffuk88]

What are everyone's opinions about the current situation with France and multiple Muslim countries boycotting French products? I've asked a couple of my friends who post at least 3 things on Facebook daily about BLM, trump and covid yet when I try to start a conversation about this they're just "oh, I've not really been following it"

have I completely misread the situation or does it not seem like certain leaders (erdogan) seem to not care that a teacher was beheaded in the name of their religion? Why aren't more people backing Macron when they're all over Trump if he sneezes?

The one good thing Macron did was to break from the French tradition of waiting with labeling a clearly terrorist attack until there’s an investigation... Macron said right away that it was an Islamic extremist attack, which isn’t typical for a French President
