Investigation launched as France’s Right-wing condemns cancellation as
‘submitting to Islamist ideology’




Threats from young Muslims have forced a Paris suburb to cancel an open-air
screening of the Barbie movie, prompting prosecutors to open an inquiry.

The cancellation has fuelled a debate over how fundamentalists among the
country’s population of six million Muslims are seeking to impose their vision of society on the French way of life.

The town’s communist mayor told a press conference on Thursday
that he shelved the screening to “protect” town hall officials who were
verbally assaulted that evening by a dozen young men making “insistent
threats”.



Olivier Sarrabeyrouse said the group had threatened to smash equipment
and had accused Barbie of “promoting homosexuality” and “undermining the
integrity of women”.

Aurore Bergé, minister for gender equality, said the furore was “not
insignificant” because it underlined attempts by hardline Muslims to
“infiltrate” districts with immigrant populations and influence social behaviour.

He added: “They must be denounced systematically for what they are.”

Last month, Emmanuel Macron unveiled measures to tackle what he called
the serious threat of radical Muslims seeking to undermine French society.
