Sounds like something of a technicality:
...Judging that France 2 did not provide proof for the allegation that Pierre Lurçat is the director of the site on which the incriminated statements were published [League de Défense Juïve], the court rejected the plaintiff’s case without further consideration. Will France 2 appeal? Questioned by Véronique Chemla of Guysen Israel News, a visibly embarrassed Maître Amblard said something about further research to find out how to establish individual responsibility for a given website. Maître David Dassa-Le-Deist, delighted by the terms of the judgment, notes that his client has endured six years of legal harassment from a plaintiff that used Wikipedia to establish the chain of responsibility… now snapped by the court.â€
And their shilling for the Palestinians didn't protect France 2
