/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The number of opponents to construction of mosques
in France doubled during the past 8 years, according to an IFOP poll
published by Le Figaro.
41% of respondents oppose building places of Muslim worship, compared
to 22% in 2001. About 46% of the French questioned by IFOP favor the
recent Swiss ban.
Jerome Fourquet of IFOP said the French are divided. "Irritation
about Islam has never been so strong," he said.
