I wouldn't think that she would even want to contemplate meeting with him. She should have realized that they would want her to cover her head. She sure doesn't think about things in advance much. And she is running for president of France?
Edit: how silly of me, Politicians do not evaluate situations that well. They are trying to impress voters and toss common sense out the door

Ummm...she was making a very strong point to this mufti...and to the world...
This is a strong...deal with me on my terms statement...that was a very bold move...
That was also a much needed move...a repudiation of class culture and inequality by a strong female soon to be leader...to cultural barbarism...
BRAVO...Mrs. LePen...well done...

Another words it was a political ploy orchestrated to make her look more independent? Ok, that sounds rational to set a thing like this up to get publicity.

Maybe she is just a strong woman who actually supports women and she took a stand against someone who expected her to bow down as a woman to please him due to his inability to treat a female as his equal?
I guess it is just easier to make it out as a political statement!

the problem isnt that she refused to wear the scarf - she waited till the last minuite to cancel it in front of the press

If I were her I wouldn't have even attempted to go meet with the guy. She should have known she would have to wear the hat if she met with this Sunni, if not she sure doesn't understand Islam at all. I think that she may have set this up as a publicity stunt like YouSir kind of said. It makes sense, I was probably wrong assuming she did not know exactly what she was doing.

Why the f#ck should she be forced to wear a headscarf?, if that guy cannot accept her "western" values then that says a lot about him...

Good to see a trump fan loving the new leader of the front narional, the party who says the holocaust never happened.
Like father like daughter.
Good to see a fan of the ideology founded by a misonigist leader who advocated treatment of women as property, slavery and pedophilia loving the Mufti.
The Grand Mufti of Jerusalem during WW2 allied with Hitler and was even given command of his own SS division to help Hitler hunt down jews and other infidels.
Like old Mufti like new Mufti.
It was last April’s interview that sparked a bitter family feud with his daughter and successor as party leader, Marine Le Pen, who moved to expel him from the party he founded.
Marine Le Pen, who took over the party in 2011 and is running for French president next year, had led a public relations drive to “detoxify” the party and move away from its jack-booted imagery and antisemitic overtones. After years of working alongside her father, in April last year she blasted him for being “in a total spiral of strategy somewhere between scorched earth and political suicide”.

Wait... So, she's NOT a MUSLIM? I thought only muslims had to wear head coverings? Why does he want her to wear one?
