Paris (JTA) — Thousands of
anti-Semitic pamphlets
titled "The Jewish Peril"
were recently distributed in
and around Paris, prompting
protests from the League
Against Racism and Anti-
Semitism and an investiga-
tion by French Interior Min-
ister Charles Pasqua.
The postcard-sized pam-
phlets feature a picture of a
spider with a human face
and a huge, hooked nose
grasping the Earth between
its hairy legs. Inside is a list
of about 50 prominent Fren-
ch citizens who are pur-
ported to be "children of
Israel" trying to destroy
France.
The pamphlets have ap-
peared in mailboxes in the
Paris neighborhood of St.
Germain as well as the
suburbs of Levallois and
Clichy on numerous occa-
sions during the past four
months. Many of them sur-
faced July 16, when France
commemorated for the first
time the roundup of nearly
13,000 Jews who were later
sent to Auschwitz during
World War II.
The League against
Racism and Anti-Semitism
has called on the govern-
ment here "to do everything
possible to find those respon-
sible" for the pamphlets.
Mr. Pasqua responded last
week by condemning the
leaflets and initiating a
police investigation.
Experts say the pamphlets
could be the work of either
right- wing extremists or
Muslim fundamentalists.
The pamphlet reproduces
the cover of a 1942 edition of
the classic anti-Semitic text

The Protocols of the Elders of
Zion, in which a spider
caricature was drawn by
pseudo- historian and col-
laborator Henry Coston.
Those listed in the pam-
phlet as "children of Israel"
include Danielle Mitterrand,
the wife of the president; the
late Prime Minister Pierre
Beregovoy; and the mayor of
Levallois, Patrick Balkany,
who has formally lodged a
complaint in court.
In addition, a recent arti-
cle in the French newspaper
Liberation detailed how
some Muslim schoolgirls in
the Parisian suburb of
Nanterre are secretly
reading yellowed copies of
The Protocols, which was
banned in France in 1990.
An English-language

teacher at the Joliot-Curie
School said that after
finishing a lesson about the
city of New York, her
students, many of whom are
strict Muslims, asked her if
there are a lot of Jews in
New York and if Jews there
have a lot of power.
They then asked her if she
was Jewish.
"I was astounded by their
question," the teacher said.
"When I told them I wasn't
Jewish, I saw they had an
air of relief on their faces.
That was terrible. It was
then that they told me about
that horrible book (The PrO-
t0C01S) and proposed that I
read it," she said.
At the same school, Libera-
tion reported, a Jewish stu-
dent was knocked over at the
exit door the day after the
end of Ramadan, the Muslim
holy month of fasting and
prayer. And a newspaper

created by some students in-
cluded the lines, "present
yourself to the crematorium
oven," which were cut out
and sent to a teacher with a
Jewish-sounding name.
The school's directors re-
sponded by describing these
actions as "intolerable" and
said the students responsible
would be disciplined.
However, the culprits have
not been identified.
One teacher said, "This
shouldn't be dramatized. In
a big school like Joliot-
Curie, where there are more
than 600 students, there are
always scuffles and insults.
When it's not 'dirty Arab'
it's 'dirty Negro' or 'dirty
Jew.' "
But a student named
Dalila had a different view.
She said, "The injuries
against the Jews have
always existed at the school,
but now they're not so
virulent. Before, we said,
`Dirty Jew.' Now we say
`Dirty Cohen.' That's
modernization."
