"French guy on guardian football weekly said Anelka knew exactly what he was doing and should be banned."
yeah well I dont think what one guys says about what the other one was thinking would hold up in court. right? You re the laywer, you tell me. That quenelle thing is actually interesting in a way. it started off as either an anti establishmentthing I read. since then like everything that gets popular its been bastardized and used left and right for abuse. thats not cool of course, I dont condone any racism and/or racial abuse. having said that I take issues with far right and far left as well. BBC got a good article on the quenelle. it states amongst other things that some think its a movement of defiance against the establishment, so maybe anarchistic. A french academic guy says that its likely that most that use the sign dont even know what it means. Finally a UK expert on french right wing said: "Dieudonne has been involved with anti-racist left-wing activists as well as far-right activists. "At the moment, the use of this gesture seems too diffuse to fit any simple right-left interpretation." I cant disagree with that last sentence, I ve read too many interpretations of that thing. I do prefer the real Quenelle as its defined in the larousse gastronomic though.
