France has been supporting Israel at first in October. Did you see millions of Muslims French killing other people?

Immediately following the Oct. 7 attacks, Macron condemned Hamas and supported Israel’s right to defend itself. On Oct. 12, his government controversially banned all pro-Palestinian protests due to the potential for violence and antisemitic incidents (in the past, protesters have burned cars and pelted police officers with stones, and chanted antisemitic slogans).

While the majority of French Muslims remain moderate in their views, small pockets of extremists support Hamas and have called for the destruction of Israel.
