(Morocco World News) French writer Michel Houellebecq has strikingly admitted to condoning and promoting an anti-Islam discourse, sarcastically pleading guilty to being “a part-time Islamophobe.”
France has a problem with Islam
The writer made his shocking remarks as he barely emerged from a wave of criticism in the aftermath of the anti-Islam views he expressed in a recent conversation with French philosopher Michel Onfray.
In that highly controversial conversation between two intellectuals who have been making a name for themselves by airing “reactionary” or “unorthodox” views and theses in their many books and television appearances, Houellebecq appeared to make the case that France has a problem with “Islamist separatism.”
