Accuser quelqu’un d’antisémitisme sans preuve en France peut constituer une diffamation, notamment de diffamation publique si l’accusation est faite publiquement (médias, réseaux sociaux, etc.).
 
 
 
Cadre juridique
 
L’article 29 de la loi du 29 juillet 1881 sur la liberté de la presse définit la diffamation comme :
 
« toute allégation ou imputation d’un fait précis portant atteinte à l’honneur ou à la considération d’une personne ».
 
Accuser quelqu’un d’être antisémite est l’imputation d’un fait précis et grave, susceptible de lui porter atteinte. Si aucune preuve n’est apportée, cela peut donc être qualifié de diffamation, sauf si la personne prouvant sa bonne foi peut bénéficier de l’exception de vérité ou de bonne foi (ce qui est rare dans ces cas).
 
 
 
Diffamation publique vs privée
 • Publique : si l’accusation est faite devant un public (Twitter, article, etc.)
 • Non publique : si c’est dans un cercle restreint (lettre privée, entre amis, etc.)
 
 
 
Peines encourues (diffamation publique envers un particulier) :
 • 12 000 € d’amende maximum
 • Possiblement dommages et intérêts civils, si la personne diffamée se constitue partie civile.
 
Si la diffamation vise une personne en raison de son appartenance ou non-appartenance à une ethnie, une nation, une race ou une religion déterminée, la peine passe à :
 • 1 an d’emprisonnement et/ou
 • 45 000 € d’amende
 
Mais ce n’est pas le cas ici, puisqu’on accuse faussement quelqu’un d’antisémitisme, donc on n’invoque pas sa religion, on lui impute une faute morale et sociale grave.
 
Résumé :
 • Oui, accuser faussement quelqu’un d’antisémitisme sans preuve peut relever de la diffamation.
 • Peine principale : amende jusqu’à 12 000 € pour diffamation publique (voire plus si circonstances aggravantes).
 • Une plainte doit être déposée dans les 3 mois suivant la publication des propos diffamatoires.

Photos of hunger and despair from Gaza were staged in collaboration with Hamas, German newspaper reveals

Germany’s Bild newspaper also addressed the issue, reporting that a widely cited freelance photographer from Gaza — considered a reliable source by many international media outlets — was found to have staged scenes for the camera.  
 
According to Bild, the photographer, Anas Zayed Fatiyeh, regularly posts anti-Israel content on his social media accounts.
The article stated that Fatiyeh, who was commissioned by the Turkish state-run Anadolu Agency to document the situation in Gaza, was effectively staging “Palestinian suffering in service of Hamas and its propaganda.”  
The images have garnered global reach and influence, shaping public and political opinion — despite often being misleading or entirely staged.

The photographs in question were not only published by Bild, but also appeared in outlets such as the BBC, CNN, New York Magazine and others. “They were meant to depict chaos, destruction and starvation,” the report said, noting that Fatiyeh shared the same photos alongside posts calling to “Free Palestine” and stating “F**K ISRAEL.”
 
Bild further reported that the photographer was working for Anadolu Agency, which reports directly to Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan — a known supporter of Hamas and outspoken critic of Israel. “The only question is,” the newspaper asked, “why are German and international news agencies continuing to use his images when many are clearly biased or staged?”

Bennett: Israel’s status in US ‘has never been so bad,’ it’s becoming a ‘leper state’
Lengthy post by former PM, who’s set to run in next elections, also castigates current government’s public diplomacy efforts

“The Democratic party hasn’t been with us for some time. We’re also losing the Republican party, whose support for Israel could once be counted on,” he wrote, though he credited US President Donald Trump with retaining support for Israel within his administration.

“Even those who have been our friends are having a hard time defending the State of Israel,” Bennett continued. “Israel is being seen more and more as a liability and burden on the USA and Americans.”

“Do you really think that what you say in interviews in Israel isn’t being heard abroad?! Don’t you care that you will lead to the prosecution of our soldiers?” Bennett wrote. “If Netanyahu’s propaganda people were working against Israel’s external enemies with a tenth of the talent, speed, and dedication with which they operate the propaganda machine against their political opponents inside Israel, our situation would be incredible.”

Norway to review sovereign wealth fund’s Israeli investments

After a recent report in Norwegian newspaper Aftenposten, which concluded that Norway was profiting from the war in Gaza, Støre said he was “very uneasy”.
 
He said he had already asked Stoltenberg to contact Norges Bank to “find out the situation”. The PM said he wanted clear answers on how the Israeli company had been assessed.
 
Støre has called the situation in Gaza catastrophic and suggested that genocide was being committed.

“We have an ethics council and we have made clear decisions that we will not invest in companies that break the rule of law,” Støre said.
 
Both Støre and foreign minister Espen Barth Eide have highlighted the appalling humanitarian consequences of Israeli action, including high civilian casualties, especially children, destruction of infrastructure and lack of access to essentials such as water, food and medical care.
 
Specific actions, such as Israel’s blockade of Gaza and restrictions on humanitarian aid, have been deemed “unacceptable” by Norwegian officials.
