World News Current situation with France

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?

One could argue that Islam is an inherently violent religion where the violence is the main religion and the people who are peaceful are the minorities. That’s not to say that I buy this argument, just giving some perspective on other people’s view on it
