Ridiculous anti semitism section Le Pen once made the infamous pun Durafour cr matoire four cr matoire meaning crematory oven about then minister Michel Durafour who had said in public a few days before One must exterminate the National Front 9 The corpses of the victims of the Nazi gas chambers were incinerated in such ovens 10 How can this possibly be considered anti Semitic Can someone explain that to me In February 1997 Le Pen accused Chirac of being on the pay roll of Jewish organizations and particularly of the B nai B rith citation needed I suppose calling anything Jewish bad is automatically anti Semitic Man I wish I were a Jew so I could get to be treated as a victim this often In May 1987 he advocated isolating those infected with HIV whom he calls sida ques 11 from society by placing them in a special sidatorium Sida que is a word coined by Le Pen meaning person infected with AIDS the correct word in French is s ropositif see serology Sida que takes on a pejorative connotation opinion needs balancing This has nothing to do with xenophobia or anti Semitism I suppose this is just a section for things I don t like about Le Pen On June 21 1995 he attacked singer Patrick Bruel on his policy of no longer singing in the city of Toulon because the city had just elected a mayor from the National Front Le Pen said the city of Toulon will then have to get along without the vocalisations of singer Benguigui Benguigui a Jewish name is Bruel s real name Calling this anti Semitic is a real stretch There is an obvious bias running through this sectionthe reader is supposed to come away believing that Le Pen is anti Semitic In 2005 he claimed that the occupation of France by Nazi Germany was not particularly inhumane 12 Anyone with a casual and open minded interest in WWII history knows that the Allies were responsible for many atrocities Is acknowledging this somehow anti Semitic Hitler had many policies that modern liberals hold abortion euthanasia gun control etc Is agreeing with these policies anti Semitic In June 2006 he claimed that the French World Cup squad contained too many non white players and was not an accurate reflection of French society He went on to scold players for not singing La Marseillaise saying they were not French 13 I can see this being xenophobic but it s not really a radical thing to say This could stay I suppose In the 2007 election campaign he referred to fellow candidate Nicolas Sarkozy as foreign or the foreigner due to Sarkozy s Hungarian heritage 14 See above This could stay IMO
