when I first read this I wasn't a bit surprised..
but is our president clueless.. or worse.. he knows and did it anyways.

anyways.. why was he showing solidarity with a comedian?
so was he clueless,.. or did he know what he was doing is considered offensive by the European Jewish community?

Dieudonné (or Dieudonné M’Bala M’Bala) is a French, black, Muslim convert. And he also is an anti-Semite, Holocaust denier, Hitler fan and Protocols reader, just to name a few. AND, he’s been a busy little Mohammedan…
– June 14, 2006, Dieudonné was sentenced to a penalty of €4,500 ($6100) for defamation after having called a prominent Jewish television presenter a “secret donor of the child-murdering Israeli army”.
– November 15, 2007, an appellate court sentenced him to a €5,000 ($6800) fine because he had characterized “the Jews” as “slave traders” after being attacked in le Théâtre de la Main d’Or.
– June 26, 2008, he was sentenced in the highest judicial instance to a €7,000 ($9500) fine for his characterization of Holocaust commemorations as “memorial pornography”.
– February 27, 2009, he was ordered to pay 75,000 Canadian dollars ($68.5K) in Montreal to singer and actor Patrick Bruel for defamatory statements. He had called Bruel a “liar” and an “Israeli soldier”.
– March 26, 2009, Dieudonné was fined €1,000 ($1400) and ordered to pay €2,000 ($2700) in damages for having defamed Elisabeth Schemla, a Jewish journalist who ran the now-defunct Proche-Orient.info website. He declared on 31 May 2005 that the website wanted to “eradicate Dieudonné from the audiovisual landscape” and had said of him that “he’s an anti-Semite, he’s the son of Hitler, he will exterminate everyone”.
– October 27, 2009, he was sentenced to a fine of €10,000 ($13,600) for “public insult of people of Jewish faith or origin” related to his show with Robert Faurisson.
– June 8, 2010, he was sentenced to a fine of €10,000 ($13,600) for defamation towards the International League against Racism and Anti-Semitism, which he had called “a mafia-like association that organizes censorship”.
– October 10, 2012, he was fined €887,135 ($1,208,000) for tax evasion. According to the French revenue service, Dieudonné failed to pay part of his taxes from 1997 to 2009.
Those eight convictions on anti-Semitism had a whopping total of (in USD) $1,330,200 in fines. If you still think he’s a funny man, that would make you, as they say: Très Stupide!
