The testimony of Abdelghani Merah is first very brave, because he denounces the thrust of Salafism in France and the soil in which it flourishes in the very heart of our Republic. He knows that with the testimony he broke with his family, his history, and nothing is less easy. But it is also a carrier of hope book, which shows that there is no fate, having been raised in the same terms as his brother Mohammed it does not mean becoming a religious fundamentalist and a terrorist. This testimony also highlights the responsibility of our society that does not see or does not want to see, when a 5 year old child was abandoned by his parents, left to itself, comes to delinquency and the escalation of violence.
No, there is not a Mohammed Merah behind every Muslim. Mr. thank you for writing it.
