Attacking Booba, Said Taghmaoui described the French rapper on his Twitter account as a”dirty son of a coward” who“stinks of defeat.”
On July 13, Tariq Ramadan, Professor of Contemporary Islamic Studies at the Oxford University, also attacked Booba on his FaceBook page, call him a “hypocrite.”
“Very brave, indeed Booba! But who is hypocritical, the supporters or Booba himself? He says that he is not into politics while taking a very political decision not only to keep quiet about the massacre but to prohibit others supporting the oppressed Palestinians? Hypocritical, indeed, and shameful,” wrote Tariq Ramadan.
