His proposal did not go unnoticed. Idriss Sihamedi, former president of the BarakaCity association, dissolved in 2020 for its positions close to radical Islamism, asked to create an organization to allow Muslims in France to leave the country if Eric Zemmour is elected President of the Republic .
In reaction to the words of the Reconquest candidate, Sunday at the Trocadero, who asked Muslims “to embrace French culture and to choose assimilation”, he felt for his part that they should rather leave France. .
“If he (Eric Zemmour, editor’s note) is elected president, let us create an independent organization allowing us to free ourselves from this bankrupt country in the midst of an economic crisis. If he accepts, I will organize the most beautiful departures”, he shared on Twitter.
I suggest something @ZemmourEric and I’m serious.
If he is elected president, let us create an independent organization allowing us to free ourselves from this bankrupt country in the midst of an economic crisis.
If he accepts, I will organize the most beautiful departures. https://t.co/9wJCdhN8Do

“France has its values, we have ours”
“France has its values, we have ours. All the prohibitions aimed at Muslims no longer make it possible to live a faith in security. We have arrived (sic) at a point of no return. Sooner or later, a clear solution will have to be found for those who refuse assimilation,” he added. “Africa and the other countries are not (sic) just as beautiful, richer and more welcoming than France?”, He proposed in a third message.
As a reminder, BarakaCity, the association he chaired, was dissolved in October 2020, twelve days after the assassination of Professor Samuel Paty. She was accused of inciting hatred, of having links with the radical Islamist movement and of justifying terrorist acts.
Idriss Sihamedi was also sentenced in February 2022 to a fine of 5,000 euros (including 2,000 suspended) for racist insults against the anti-Islamic activist Zineb El Rhazoui, whom he described in particular as “Arab service “. He is still being sued for cyberstalking in other cases.
