| [Breitbart] Top-selling French author Michel Houellebecq has been indicted for inciting discrimination or hatred following complaints from leftist and Muslim activist groups who filed complaints about his questioning of the ability of France to integrate a large number of Muslims and for asserting that the "Great Replacement" is a reality. According to French paper of record Le Figaro, a judge in Nanterre decided to indict Houellebecq on Tuesday with "complicity in inciting discrimination, hatred, or violence against a group of people based on their origin or their membership or non-membership of a particular ethnic group, nation, race, or religion." The paper reported that the Submission author is facing prosecution over comments he made in a 2022 interview with French phliosopher Michel Onfray in his Front Populaire magazine. During the interview, Houellebecq suggested that areas which come under "Islamist control" in France will see violent uprisings from the native population, potentially including attacks on Muslim places of worship and cafes attended by Muslims, in what he described as "a Bataclan in reverse", referencing the jihadist mass shooting at a Paris concert hall in 2015 that left 90 people dead and hundreds more injured.
