France: Imam student expelled for antisemitism


Le Figaro daily newspaper reports that for the first time, a student has been expelled from the Catholic Institute for Imam Instruction because of anti-Semitic remarks. Alerted by other students of the problem, the RMF (Rassemblement des musulmans de France or Assembly of French Muslims) asked the imam in question not to return to class. Details of the incident are not clear.


Among the twenty-five students currently enrolled are 15 military chaplains and 10 foreign imams.
