France Télévisions has removed a clip of actress Adèle Haenel's comments on the Israel-Palestine conflict from its replay platform. The remarks were made during her appearance on the cultural program "La Grande Librairie" on France 5. Haenel stated, "The State of Israel is committing genocide in Palestine and France is complicit. Do not accept the unacceptable. Then sanction Israel and free Palestine." The clip quickly went viral on social media and sparked a wide-ranging debate. France Télévisions said it removed the video from its platform after analyzing the content, citing the need to ensure safety. The organization claimed that Haenel's statements could not be balanced with "several points of view," which its terms of service require. The group emphasized that it did not engage in censorship, stating, "There is no censorship." Haenel responded to the removal on her social media accounts, arguing that the incident proved the importance of her statements on silencing and denial. She remarked, "What is quite funny is that they are absolutely demonstrating the relevance of the statements that consisted in saying that there are certain words, certain realities that everyone knows and should not be said at all." She added, "What is good is that they helped us make our demonstration. So congratulations to France Télévisions." Political reactions were mixed. Several members of the LFI party, Senator Ian Brossat of the PCF, and Olivier Faure expressed outrage at the removal, calling it a disgrace and questioning the justification. In contrast, RN deputy Julien Odoul criticized Haenel for spreading "propaganda of Hamas Islamists" without providing counterpoints or nuance. The incident has further highlighted the divisive nature of the Israel-Palestine conflict in public discourse.
