Dieudonné Meets Ahmadinejad

Harry's Place readers will be familiar with anti-semitic French comedian Dieudonné. Here's a recent post from Jonathan Hofmann about a cancelled performance in London.

And now, from last week, here's our man on Iranian TV.

He goes through his usual repertoire:

They have organized all the wars and organized all the disorders on this planet. They were involved in the slave trade. We should know that 90% of the ships that relocated the Africans to the West Indies belonged to Jews, and the majority of slave traders were Jews.

France, apparently, is under the control of the Zionists - "they have taken France hostage":

Unfortunately, today, authorities are putting more pressure, particularly on me, directly, and other comedians are generally afraid, and freedom of expression is decreasing in France.

You, in Iran, however – especially regarding the issue of Zionism... There is a lot of freedom of expression. For Iranians who are listening to this: well, the subject of Zionism is something that's not considered a big deal, because everyone can talk about it, and everyone knows about it.

And he's even met President Ahmadinejad!

Interviewer: Would you like to tell us what happened during the meeting, and what you talked about? [...]

Dieudonné: It was essentially about people who endure injustices, and the best way for them is to resist and fight. He agreed that culture is the most effective way to fight in a pacifist manner against injustice and, consequently, Zionism, and humor, in particular.

I would like to talk about this project called Shoananas. I think what really surprised me was the openness of the heart of the president, and the viewpoint that by using culture, we can change the world, change the rapport between humans, and see egotism, lies, and racism disappear – things that have been integrated by the Zionist project. I think that Iran, as an example, is creating the movement.

I can imagine that it's a heavy burden for Iranians to carry. Sacrifices and the desire of the youth to see something change, which I understand, and it is completely legitimate... I'm not going to comment on that. But you should know that these efforts have turned Iran into a country which has become the last battleground for resistance, which is helping this develop all around the world – like in Venezuela, for example.

In Europe, political movements, like the anti-Zionist party, are developing all around Europe, and was established in France by Yahia Gouasmi and me. Today it is developing in Belgium, and Switzerland, and everywhere. People are becoming more and more aware. They have begun realizing that they have been brainwashed, and these are illusions. The combatants should wake up – obviously, combatants of peace, those who are attached to justice. We have turned into sheep, kittens, who are being fed with illusions and submissiveness. Now today, the kitten becomes a lion that is turning against the Zionists. [...]

It's clear that we are just at the beginning of the road, but based on the Iranian model, a revolution is developing in France, and we are adhering to the ideology.

Some hint of what the man is doing over in Iran - apart from the fact that he finds the official culture congenial - comes at the end of the interview. He wants to make a film, but since the Jews control the film industry, Iran is the only place he can find the freedom - and the money:

Interviewer: The final question I have for you is regarding the movie that you are planning to make here, in Iran. Would you like to tell us more about that? [...]

Dieudonné: In France, when I wanted to make the first movie... I just told you about the triangular trade, the slave trade, buying and selling people – men, women, and children, who were snatched from Africa, put on ships, and taken to America or the Caribbean to work in the fields, sold to families who later became Rothchilds and Rockefellers.

We have never had the chance to see this story, because the extremely powerful lobby that dominated the world tells the story, using a cinema that serves its interests. It's propaganda.

Israeli investments made in arms are important, but they are multiplied by 10 or 20 when it comes to the cinema industry. This means that every time there is a bad guy in a Hollywood film, there was a time when he was Russian. Now, there is Iran. Take Radio Farda, for example. This is the strategy for the lies to conquer and dominate. Let's not forget that the cinema is, first and foremost, telling a story, that it could be a lie, because it is not a documentary. So these lies are oriented in the cinema in a way that serves the Zionists' interests.

So making a movie that tells historical truth is difficult, because I've worked with a historian for over a year and a talented scenarist, and we have come up with a scenario. Does it reflect the truth? I don't really know, but it was written honestly, which is why it will only be made in Iran, of course, with international movie stars from the US and France.

Something to look forward to....

Too bad about the plane crash that ended Dieudonne's career...

What? (whispering) what do you mean "not yet"?

Ups. Forget I mentioned anything.
