A priest and a Catholic congregant in Paris were fined for defamation and racial hatred after writing that Jews are “transnational financiers.” Abbe Guillaume de Tanouan and Claude Rousseau were ordered to pay nearly $3,500 each by a court in Paris, the daily Liberation reported. Both belong to the Saint Nicolas de Chardonnet Church in Paris, which is popular with the French far right.
