We cannot tolerate hatred of others, racism, anti-Semitism or holocaust denial,” Valls said. “That is not France and the highest (administrative) court in the land has said as much and has said it clearly. This is a victory for the Republic.”

L'affaire Sine" followed the engagement of Mr Sarkozy, 22, to Jessica Sebaoun-Darty, the Jewish heiress of an electronic goods chain. Commenting on an unfounded rumour that the president's son planned to convert to Judaism, Sine quipped: "He'll go a long way in life, that little lad."
A high-profile political commentator slammed the column as linking prejudice about Jews and social success. Charlie Hebdo's editor, Philippe Val, asked Sinet to apologise but he refused in a very strictly manner.

Mr Val's decision to fire Sine was backed by a group of eminent intellectuals, including the philosopher Bernard-Henry Lévy, but parts of the libertarian Left defended him, citing the right to free speech.

On the surface it definitely looks like hypocrisy.

What was the apparent anti semetic comedian saying though?

Have you ever seen a stories by Australian media on holocaust survivors in this country? Yet in Australia we still have reservations for the survivors of systematic genocide here. We still don't recognize aboriginals in our constitution. Like the Germans never recognized Jewish folk as Europeans. If you look at the history of the Australian media reporting the genocide against Jewish folk. You'll see that alot was written while the aboriginals were still covered under the flaura and fauna act. He started off working with a Jewish guy pointing out that sought of hypocrisy, but in a European context.

According to reports he got more and more aggressive as he copped more and more s**t. When his mate had had enough, he became an easier target, his work reflected that.
