Muslim-majority countries protest against France over Prophet Muhammad cartoons

Protesters in Bangladesh burned an effigy of French President Emmanuel Macron on Wednesday in the capital of Dhaka, while protesters across Pakistan called for a boycott of French goods and severing diplomatic ties as anger surged over cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad and the French leader's response to the caricatures considered blasphemous by Muslims. In Somalia, hundreds gathered in the Somalian capital of Mogadishu on Wednesday, chanting anti-France slogans and burning French flags to protest Macron's recent comments on Islam. The protests in the Muslim world come after the French government, backed by many citizens, saw the Oct. 16 killing of a teacher as an attack on freedom of speech and said they would defend the right to display the prophet cartoons, with Macron calling the teacher a hero and pledging to fight "Islamist separatism."
