3:23Now PlayingA viral video has sparked national outrage in France after a 47-year-old Moroccan man was seen lighting a cigarette from the Eternal Flame at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier beneath Paris’s Arc de Triomphe. The sacred flame, burning since 1923 to honor WWI soldiers, was turned into what many are calling a 'smoking joke'. The act was condemned by French officials as “deplorable,” leading to a swift court hearing, a 3-month suspended sentence, and the revocation of the man’s residency. He now faces possible deportation as citizens and leaders slam the act as a grave insult to national memory.
