Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that La Presse published vile antisemitic cartoon of Nosfenyahou.
The Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs said that the caricature was antisemitic, not funny, and demanded an immediate retraction.
“One can criticize Netanyahu — as many Israelis do — without stooping to using antisemitic tropes such as hooked fingers or a big nose,” CIJA said on X. “This kind of drawing contributes to the normalization of antisemitism that has been affecting our community for months.”
Hampstead Mayor Jeremy Levi said on social media “You can dislike Netanyahu. You can disagree with his policies. You cannot make antisemitic tropes.”
Public relations firm CEO Jenni Bryne noted that the cartoon was reminiscent of antisemitic Nazi propaganda in the lead-up to World War II and the Holocaust. La Presse, in its retraction statement, said that Nosferatu was used in Nazi propaganda during the Second World War.
