However, 73 percent of Socialist Party supporters and 60 percent of those of la France Soumise, as well as 58 percent of la R\u00e9publique en Marche supporters, think the opposite, according to the survey.<\/h4>\n<h4>Ifop also surveyed French people about the proposal to add a tax on halal food. The idea of the food tax was first proposed in 2016 by an association representing French Muslims to fund mosques and to combat radicalization among young people. The effort was in response to concerns in France about the financing of mosques in the country as well as to a series of terror attacks that France witnessed over the past few years, according to British news outlet The Independent.<\/h4>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fifty-six percent of French people believe that Islam is compatible with the values of their country, according to a survey conducted by the French-based polling firm the Institut Fran\u00e7ais d\u2019Opinion Publique (IFOP). \u00a0 \u00a0 Fifty-six percent of French people believe that Islam is compatible with the values of their country, according to a survey conducted &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":16312,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"facebook_108372464460192_245495985553329":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[664,70,205,489],"class_list":["post-5454","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-world","tag-country","tag-french","tag-muslim","tag-people"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.3 -
