Union des étudiants juifs de France: what Wikipedia removed
The Union des étudiants juifs de France is a French Jewish student organization best known publicly for suing people and organizations it says support antisemitism, including the LICRA case. Through October 6, 2023, the opening paragraph described the group as bringing lawsuits against those it deems to support antisemitism. Today the opening carries neither that description nor the word, though antisemitism survives 3 times in the body. A reader today learns only that the organization assists French Jewish students, not that its defining public activity is suing people it accuses of antisemitism.
The word “antisemitism” appeared 1 times in this article’s opening at its peak, in 2010. Today the opening carries none; the body carries 3. Checked against the full current article on 2026-08-01.
