LONG FORM INTERVIEW, Jonas Follonier | He's one of Switzerland's leading politicians in the fight against Islamism. Even if he doesn't like the word «combat» (he prefers the word «cause»), Mohamed Hamdaoui has made it one of his priority themes, making himself a highly committed player in the debate, even if it means over-emotionalizing. His background no doubt has something to do with it: born in the Hoggar, this Tuareg loved a woman who, in the 1980s, was kidnapped by Algerian Islamists because she refused to wear the veil. These sowers of terror beheaded her. The murder in France of Professor Samuel Paty by a radicalized Muslim using the same modus operandi shook him to the core. Interview with a former socialist turned PDC, who doesn't consider Switzerland immune to political Islam.
