French presidential candidate Jean-Luc Melenchon pledges direct action in support of the Palestinians, against the genocide in Gaza and the creeping annexation of the West Bank. According to him, French ships, like those of Italy and Spain, will accompany civilian flotillas protecting the rights of the Palestinians if necessary. Melanchon also rejects the gradual annexation of southern Lebanon and the Syrian Golan Heights, and vows to organize action against the expanding attacks on Christian communities in Palestine and Lebanon, which he says are under siege and persecution.
