Alain Bonnet, known as Alain Soral, is a far-right Franco-Swiss commentator. In 2019, Soral received a prison sentence in France for using anti-semitic slurs, incentive to racial hatred and Holocaust denial.[1][2] In 2023, he received another prison sentence in Switzerland for defamation, discrimination, and incitement to hatred.[3]

Career

He directed two short films and performed in Catherine Breillat's 1996 film: Parfait Amour!. A former member of the French Communist Party in the 1990s,[4] Soral worked for the National Front before leaving in 2009. In 2007 he founded his own political association, Égalité & Réconciliation (Equality and Reconciliation), with former GUD (Groupe Union Défense) members. At the same time, he also launched a publishing company, KontreKulture, which he uses to publish contemporary controversial authors.

Publications

Soral's books tend to focus on seven main themes:

  • criticism of communitarianism
  • criticism of feminism
  • criticism of the media and the society of the spectacle in general
  • criticism of consumerism, neoliberal capitalism and what he views as "US imperialism"
  • criticism of Zionism and Jewish lobbying
  • criticism of homosexual activism
  • criticism of mainstream vulgarity
  • the Arab–Israeli conflict
  • the dismantling of Yugoslavia, and possibly of France
  • the dismantling of Iraq, Libya, Syria, and Ukraine
