At 35, Malik Bentalha received a strong attack after his parody of Pascal Praud's show. Words are hard.
He wanted to evoke a discomfort that he feels and that he observes. In an interview with the podcast
Culture.Knock.Out (C.K.O), Malik Bentalha did not hesitate to highlight the difficulties encountered by the Muslim community in France.
Highlighting social and political pressures, the comedian, who was the victim of a scam, indicated that “being a Muslim in France became more and more complicated“, he regretted. “At one point, I was watching, I came across CNews, there was a subject on Muslims, I skip BFM, subject on Muslims… whatever is happening. Wembanyama who has bad stats, it's because of Islam“, he says. “I can't not position myself“. And this is not the first time that Malik Bentalha has attacked the teams of the CNews channel. Remember, the actor had parodied Pascal Praud's show, Time for the prosmaking racist remarks. And apparently, not everyone liked it.Indeed, in a column published in the Watson media, the content of the comedian's sketch was widely criticized.
The comedian takes a tackle after his parody of Pascal Praud
It can be read: “One character stands out from the crowd, Larsen Harbouni, the imam of Nancy, alias Hassen Chalghoumi, the imam of Drancy: a wheatish accent from the 1980s, a French speaking 'behind the gossip', in short, a man who often says tare for bar. Harbouni-Chalghoumi, the imam of those who benefit from making this 'caricature' the representative of Muslims in France.
Harbouni-Chalghoumi or the docile Arab, invited on Sunday to the settlers' table. This is a bit like how we see it through your eyes, Malik Bentalha”says journalist Antoine Menusier. Very harsh and sharp words.
“What I find annoying…”
The journalist also admits having “laughed at your comic effects, less at some of your political innuendos – Pascal Praud pronounces 'rrrrramas', in the guttural manner of the Israelis, to say Hamas”, he writes. The man therefore does not share certain jokes and allusions made by Malik Bentalha about Pascal Praud, who had given his opinion on Nagui. “When you talk about the djellaba, which there is talk of banning in the street, everyone understands that you are referring to the abaya, recently banned in schools, as well as the qamis, considered conspicuous religious symbols. In reality, man believes that Malik Bentalha's parody goes against what he defends: “What I find annoying in your parody is that you ignore Islamist ideology. You didn't want to make fun of bigots, of Tartufes, thinking that this would only add to the stigmatization of Muslims? “.
