Colmar, France - Man Fined for Zyklon B Letters to Jews

Colmar, France - A French man was fined 700 euros (USD 878.7) for sending Jews letters with the inscription "Jew equals Zyklon B", the gas used by Nazi Germany to exterminate Jews in the Holocaust.

A police court in the eastern city of Colmar found Emmanuel Rist guilty of sending the letters, which included a Star of David and a drawing of a can with the message on it. The letters were sent to a local Jewish organization, and two prominent members of the Jewish community.
