Smaller demonstrations in Lebanon, Turkey and India followed on anti-France protests across the Muslim world last week that were mostly led by Islamist groups.
"I have never said that," Macron told the Al-Jazeera interviewer, explaining that some false translations of his words in the media showed him to support the cartoons mocking Prophet Muhammad. "Those are lies.""I understand and respect that people can be shocked by these cartoons," he said. "But I will never accept that someone can justify the use of physical violence because of these cartoons.
The protests in Muslim-majority nations over the last week, and calls for boycotts of French products, began initially after Macron eulogized a French teacher in Paris who was decapitated for showing caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad in class. Two attacks followed on a group of worshippers in a church in Nice, and a Greek priest in Lyon.
The crowd, which was smaller in number after larger rallies over the past days, marched toward the French Consulate in the city while security cordoned off the area.
If they are breaking the law, why not do something
يا أيها المسلمون بتصرفاتكم الحمقاء جعلتم الغرب حيث تلجئون إليه للأمان والعلاج والدراسة.. إلخ يعرض رأيه فيكم بصراحه لم نعهدها من قبل .. يا أيها المسلمون ما عاد إنكاركم للحقائق كافيا .. اصلحوا ما يمكن إصلاحه.. لصالحكم اقول هذا
Isn't it a little ass-backward that Macron is taking heat after two people got their HEADS CUT OFF!! Over an offensive cartoon, no less! Like, how about a bit more outrage on behalf of the two murdered people?
We love our prophet!!
Stay the course Mr Macron.

I don’t get it. People insult Christians & Jesus all the time. We get upset of course but mostly in private. Why are they so mad about a cartoon that they aren’t condemning the killing of Innocent people? Why aren’t they marching to condemn Islamic terrorism?
What happens if the one in the picture with a red cross is Xi Jinping not Macron?
If their religious values and beliefs do not align with France, then why not get the fuck out and seek a country more fitting? Its noteworthy that (a) religion is notorious for beheadings, bombings, severe suppression of women and other extreme actions.
Macron and Trudeau are both compromised. They are run by the elitist globalists and have zero power over much if any of this. Trudeau way more than Macron.
France is in crisis. It can't accept that is it severely racist towards arabs. Macroni stirring up a race war, like most politicians, to cover their own incompetencies. Nikolas did the same.
Wasn’t someone beheaded?
People want freedom until freedom pisses them off?
good thing they imported all these humans who hate their country that's a really smart thing to do and it's a good thing they didn't listen to anyone who said all along this is a bad bad idea
Is this Toronto
WTF are all these so-called Muslim leaders and countries completely losing their collective shit over a FUCKING CARTOON but not a fucking peep about the millions of Uighers persecuted in China FFS?
Islamic Extremists getting their panties in a knot because Macron didn't bow to their demands
'seek understanding'? Why? They chose to come to France. Respect freedom of speech or gtfo
Thanks Macron keep France 🇫🇷 a great democratic country, with no free speech limit. ( like our little prince 😏)
Chinese communist gov would have handled this perfectly.
Our freedom must not be compromised by people from other parts of the world. This is our western society and we will not change our way of life. Those that don't like it should choose elsewhere to abide!
open border policy results
I hope Macron goes on a deporting spree!
From Muslims....
If you dont like it get out
Strip them of the visas and citizenship. Put them on a plane to some Muslim loved country where they will be happy and can cut off each other’s head if they don’t like something. Bye!
If your religion is so fragile that a comic of your god, causes you to behead people. Maybe it's time to reexamin your beliefs. To me this seems not to be a religion of peace.
Islam is a brutal political movement nothing more than savages ...
Deportation and FEAR of deportation is enough to stop all this.
It's unfortunate that most of u don't seem to realize the true problem here. Not that murder isn't a problem. France keeps poking that big bear with that long, sharp stick, using the excuse of 'Free Speech' to justify their hate. France needs to grow up and recognize hate speech.
Macron should crack down on the savagery in his country and forget about trying to fix the third world. He might also want to think twice before flooding his homeland with them.
Islam is contrary to western civilization, few Muslims will assimilate, so they attack .Islam is anti enlightenment, so shouldn't profit from what they seek to destroy .
CTV stands with the jihadists
Anyone committing these types of crimes are against all humanity. Glad he has realized. EmmanuelMacron Muslims absolutely don’t condone these acts. Muslims have very place and utmost respect for teachers EmmanuelMacron
Beheading is fine but drawings are offensive...gotcha
France deserves this since they fired rockets into Syria and helped destabilize Libya. They should expect retaliation.
Pakistan is not anti-PRC though hypocrites
Anti-Free Speech/Expression protests
Maybe they should protest beheading people. StandwithMacron
Just imagine how weak and boring France would be if it didn’t have all this diversity
Blaming the victim?
