Dieudonné declares, ‘I am Coulibaly’
In an apparent paraphrase of the “Je suis Charlie” solidarity campaign that began after the terror attack on the headquarters of a satirical French magazine last week, anti-Semitic French comedian Dieudonné declares his admiration for the terrorist who murdered four people at a kosher supermarket in Paris last Friday.
Dieudonné wrote on his Facebook page after the 1,500,000 strong “march against hatred” in Paris: “As far as I am concerned, I feel I am Charlie Coulibaly.”
Dieudonné M’Bala M’bala, 48, came to international attention 12 months ago as the originator of the “quenelle,” a reverse Nazi salute, after the footballer Nicolas Anelka performed the gesture during a Premier League match.
