France has declared war against Islamic terrorism and hate, Prime Minister Manuel Valls said Saturday in defiant speeches aimed at rallying his country in the aftermath of a three-day jihad spree that left 17 dead.
“We are at war — not a war against a religion, not a war against a civilization, but to defend our values, which are universal,” Valls said.
“It’s a war against terrorism and radical Islamism, against everything that would break our solidarity, our liberty, our fraternity.”
The French people need to stand up for freedom of speech and faith — which in France means keeping religion separate from government, Valls said.
