Recently France has received threats from Osama Bin Laden because France released its nationals kidnapped a month ago. “The French authorities are completely mobilizing the release of seven hostages.” The French authorities say that they will continue to fight against terrorism. Osama threatened to kill French natives in revenge of the French governments support for the war led by the United States in Afghanistan and its new law banning Muslim veils that cover the full face. Depending on the issue of freedom of expression of religion that should be mutually appreciated and respected per every nation; Osama is attempting to defend this honor in a rather radical method. While I see that Osama is trying to protect something that should be protected, his manner of action is something that should never be taken by anybody.
The French government on the other side, have a right to express their own rules and regulations depending on the way that they want to execute their regulations. If they wish to employ a controversial rule, it is their right as a republic to do this. The issue of religion is highly involved in the wearing of a veil, so there is no doubt that this issue is highly controversial. Regardless, the protection of their nation is the number one priority once any threats have been made that could possibly threaten their security. Therefore, their ties with NATO is proper, and even with the impression of defence of religion that Osama tries to imply, there should never be an excuse to conduct terrorist at the expense of possibly innocent bystanders and citizens.
