Dieudonné under investigation after comparing Islamic State beheadings to French Revolution
The controversial French comedian also claimed the 'Rothschild Mafia' was responsible for the international outrage surrounding the beheading of U.S. journalist James Foley. ● He [...] compared executions by the radical Islamist group Islamic State to the guillotining of royalty and aristocrats during the French Revolution and noted that Western media made no fuss about the execution of the late Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein or the Libyan strongman Muammar Gaddafi. The Paris prosecutor’s office said police were starting a preliminary investigation into Dieudonné on the grounds that he had condoned terrorism. Foley was beheaded by Islamic State militants last month after being kidnapped while covering the Syrian civil war and held for 20 months. The act caused outrage around the world. More than 100 [...] video sketches by Dieudonné have been removed from YouTube in the past few days.
