Excerpt:
French far-right leader Marine Le Pen on Sunday accused her centre-right and socialist rivals of "messing up" by failing to prevent youths from joining jihadist groups in Syria and Iraq.
"We lament that youths go to jihad, wondering what went wrong. Everything, everything, (Nicolas) Sarkozy and (President Francois) Hollande, you have messed everything up."
Speaking after she won 100 percent of a party vote to remain the unchallenged chief of France's far-right National Front, Le Pen added: "These parties (Sarkozy's UMP and Hollande's Socialists) carry the full responsibility for our situation."
