Way to go, France. 🇫🇷 Now, there rest of the EU must follow.
He should be banned!
Good
All Jewish members of government should be banned from Europe not just him ..
Better if he was invited, and then arrested, and bought to the Hague.
Ban the fat dog while you still have croissants in the country. Gvir will gobble them up like they are Palestinian children
Freeze Isreali assets across EU Banks in London switerzzerland and EU
A thug, no less
Brilliant! thank you France for being first ❤
Really strange moves by a country entirely propped up by western finance, military tech and diplomatic support. Hopefully, a post Netanyahu Israel will be more rational
So Netanyahu rebuked Ben-Gvir. Why doesn't he actually fire him? Actions speak louder than words.
Israel terrorist state.
Please Stand with humanity and against of Israeli brutality.
Ben Gvir is Izreal's Heinrich Himmler.
The whole government like him and on record, the only difference france forced to take limited action because it cannot be ignored
Let me guess. Banning that thug is antisemitic?
where was france when poor palestinians were treated much worse than this.. but now they decide to take action when one of european national is harmed.. the hypocrisy of european countries… europe is doomed ..just wait for it
Ban all genocidal isrealis, arrest them if they do enter your country, and treat them the same way.
Good, that fool is more pig than man. The rest of Europe should follow suit.
Educate me. Did these countries react so aggressively during the the last 3 years of ethnic cleansing of Palestinians?
This just shows the Western hypocrisy.
This guy will carry on with his inhuman behaviour and enjoy impunity.
What values?
France 😂 you give them weapons ! What about sanctions on Israel ?
Hope germany bans this zionist subhuman too
Why stop at Ben Gvir! He was just being honest in its despicable distain for civility. They have all condoned this in the Israeli government he just put it online
France and Israel are twin brothers.
Everything you hear is a lie, the same blood flows through the veins of France and Israel.
VIVA 🇮🇱 ISRAEL❤❤❤❤
Sounds like a good start to me. MOAR!
Sanctions on the country, not banning from France. This is weak, more drastic measures needed.
If Europe is serious about human rights, the UN, and international law, it will sanction Netanyahu, Katz, ,Smotrich and Ben Gvir just as it sanctions Russia and Iran. No arms deliveries or aid to war criminals
May be banning Macron will work first😂
Yeah may be banning immigrant be welcomed first 😂
The entire EU is Zionist fascist territory
Bet he's crying his eyes out because he's banned,with laughter 😂
