This anti-Semitic slogan appeared on several occasions in the anti-pass processions in France following an interview granted in June on the CNEWS channel to a retired general, Daniel Delawarde, signatory of a forum evoking “the disintegration” of France published by the weekly Current values.

To the question “who controls the ‘media pack’?”, He replied “the community that you know well”, before being cut off by the presenter, Jean-Marc Morandini.

A teacher, ex-member of the National Front and ex-local elected, who had brandished in Metz this sign embellished with the names of political leaders, businessmen and intellectuals for the most part Jewish, was arrested Monday in Hombourg-Haut (Moselle) and will be tried in September for provocation to racial hatred.
