France’s top administrative body has turned the tables on Dieudonne, ruling in an urgent decision that his Thursday night show could not take place. The decision by the Council of State in Paris overturned a Nantes court ruling hours earlier that had annulled the ban the city had imposed on the show by Dieudonne M’Bala M’Bala. The comic was convicted last fall for using the word "Shoananas," a mash-up of the Hebrew word for Holocaust and the French word for pineapple. (AP Photo/Michel Euler)
