According to writer and patron Metin Arditi, who has published the essay «The Eleventh Commandment», the rhetoric of Jerusalem as the «capital of Israel and of all Jews» is contrary to Jewish tradition. Worse, it creates anti-Semitism. Interview in Geneva.
Essayist Eric Zemmour is officially a candidate for the presidency of the French Republic. He chose the form of a personal video posted on social networks this Tuesday November 30 at 12:00 to officially announce this, before answering a few questions from Gilles Bouleau on TF1's 20 heures. While the transformation of the editorialist and writer into a politician is rather worrying news, whatever our position on his analyses, it is also very positive. And for everyone, too.
LONG-FORM INTERVIEW, Jonas Follonier | Moix is a free spirit. Above all, he is driven by «novelistic truth»—which he conveys with the flair of a genius, using phrases that are as sensitive as they are harsh, and as tragic as they are funny. Who else but a master of premeditated improvisation is capable of this? A former panelist on the show «On n’est pas couché,» hosted by Laurent Ruquier on France 2, and former host of his own show «Chez Moix» on Paris Première, Yann Moix is also a child of television, who loves to put his verbal wit to work in the intimate and demanding exploration of people, books, and the world. I had been warned: «He’s a bit of an oddball.» This experience was confirmed during this interview, which very nearly didn’t happen. The writer, director, and television commentator opens up to *Le Regard Libre* about his «horrible years» in his twenties, the city of Reims in the 1980s, and the anti-Semitism he became entangled in during that time. And one of the best contemporary French authors explains to us exactly what he means by «novelistic truth,» two years after being the subject of controversies related to his family—a family he no longer refers to as such.

They're both 24, studying contemporary history at the University of Fribourg, and are among the most successful bands in French-speaking Switzerland this summer. Faustine Pochon and Arnaud Rolle, committed but not militant, make up the French-speaking indie pop duo BARON.E. Revealed in particular by the presence of their single Un verre d'égo in a playlist of the prestigious French magazine Les Inrocks, but above all by the quality of their work as measured by their listeners and spectators, the Dzodzets of the moment present us with their new EP Créature, comprising, like the previous one, five songs situated between pop, electro and progressive rock. They invite us to meet them on the rooftops of Fribourg, their home town, to talk about music and society.
