First, that is a complete lie. France does not have terrorists attack every other week. The last 'high profile' one was the priest who died. Since then, there have been injuries, including a few in September - but none since then. It's this kind of exaggeration that fuels the rise of the right.
Second, France is already going to the right. If you're assuming that they're going to elect La Pen, then your argument is France is going to elect the
far right. The current President of France is from the Socialist Party. He has no chance. Juppe, who will be the next President is from the right. It will be a direct choice between right (Juppe) v far right (La Pen), and Juppe will win because everyone in the centre or left will vote for him, just to ensure La Pen doesn't win.
