They called themselves Operational Forces Action, a small, right-wing vigilante group from all over France that had planned to kill Muslim civilians, prosecutors say.

Wow! Ms. Le Pen didn't hesitate to blame the current French government for the actions of the Far-Right terrorist cell.
“if groups are forming to defend themselves, it is first and foremost because the state is being soft on radical Islam.”
Sounds like she supports groups like the OFA and other vigilantes to target Muslims just because they are Muslims. That only feeds the propaganda of the actual Radical Islamists' claims that Europeans are at war with Islam and Muslims. So glad she lost the election.

CPT Gregory Hafera - "Mindread the racist" game? It's called listening and reading comments she actually says and the groups she supports. That's not trying to read someone's mind; it's called an informed opinion based on actions and behavior.
So let me give an honest opinion about your comment.
"People have a sacred right and duty to preserve their lives. Governments are there to protect their citizens, not to redistribute wealth or manage the economy. A government that cannot provide the basic function of monopolizing violence isn't a government, it's an organized religion with incorrect stationary."
So do you support a domestic terrorist cell that targets a group of people for their ethnicity, race or religion? Because that's the perception yours and Le Pen's comment has given me. And what type of government is supposed to monopolize violence as a basic function? To have the right to bear arms, right to self defense, establish a law enforcement, and sanction a military is not sanctioning a government to have a monopoly on violence unless you are establishing a dictatorship or authoritarian government.
Militias do not exist to commit acts of genocide or hate crimes towards people of a different religion or culture. But do go on and justify the actions of a right wing extremist group as patriots to their country; like the three men in Kansas that planned to attack and kill a bunch of refugees at an apartment complex believing they were a terrorist threat to America.

CPT Gregory Hafera - You got issues. Le Pen being quoted claiming more soldiers died in WWII than Jewish victims of the Holocaust doesn't make her a "Holocaust Denier"; it makes her an unsympathetic, insensitive piece of White European trash that belittles the genocide of a class of people during WWII. It also makes her a sympathizer to those that are anti-Semitic and racist when she fails to denounce their sentiment, rhetoric, and actions. In the same way, she failed to denounce the actions of this French Right Wing terrorist group that targeted innocent group of people.
The best way to recruit extremists is indeed filling their heads with hate rhetoric that others of a specific skin color, gender, orientation, ethnicity, or religion is responsible for everything they complain about. I.E. "You can't find a job cause of immigrants." "You can't get into school of your choice cause of minorities." "Women don't like you cause you're a White man." "Christians are under attack from non-Christians." "The White population will soon be a minority." ETC. The fears of the ignorant losing what they believe is an "inherited status" in society is what leads to them excluding themselves and creating groups where everyone is like him/her. White Nationalists and European Nationalist aren't being excluded by society; they choose to exclude themselves as opposed to accepting that the world is changing and evolving.
