Nicolas Anelka anti-semitic gesture? Quenelle causes controversy for West Brom striker - Mirror Online

Apparently it's anti-semitic. Anelka has defended it, saying it was just a dedication to his friend.

This gesture was just a special dedication to my comedian friend Dieudonné
Dieudonne - a comedian who has several convictions for racial offenses.

Quote:
The French government is trying to ban comedian Dieudonne M'bala M'bala's shows over his use of the gesture.

Fourneyron wrote: "Anelka's gesture is a shocking provocation, disgusting. There's no place for anti-Semitism on the football field."
Reading that, it appears to be anti-Zionist rather than anti-semitic but as always criticise Israel you get labeled anti-semitic. Or criticise Islam - Islamaphobe. Religion .
