The Union of Muslim Organizations in France (UOIF), a top opponent of the ban, issued a statement saying it "vigorously condemned the taking of hostages" and said that foreigners shouldn't intervene in internal French affairs.

"We are living in a democracy and we as Muslims participate in that, in our own responsible way," says Bachir Boukhzer, spokesman for the UOIF. "We don't want any political or terrorist pressure from outside. Taking people hostage in Iraq can never be a means to influence French affairs. As far as that is concerned, all Muslims in France agree."
