(Algemeiner) French presidential candidate Valérie Pécresse on Friday visited the Jewish school in [the] southern city of Toulouse that 10 years ago was [the] site of a deadly Islamist terror attack that took the lives of a teacher and three small children.
On a visit to the Ohr Torah school — known as the Ozar Hatorah school when the attack occurred on [March] 19, 2012 — Pécresse said that the terrorist behind “this barbaric attack wanted to attack the Jews of France and, through them, France itself, because when you kill a Jew from France, a Jewish child, you are attacking France.”
The attack at the school in Toulouse was part of a days-long terror spree by Mohamed Merah, an Islamist gunman, that claimed the lives of seven people.
