In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Jawad Bendaoud” is an epic card of the Memes FR pack, number 1704 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3502 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “Jawad Bendaoud” meme mean?
In French-language memes, “Jawad” points to a media figure whose words were widely commented on, remixed and edited into videos. In practice the reference mostly quotes his phrases or his way of speaking, which became a comic device online. His second life also matters on the internet, where he began posting videos and going live on TikTok. This path sits in a serious context: the case is tied to the 13 November 2015 attacks and to the courts. The reference should be used with that in mind and without downplaying the facts.
Where does the “Jawad Bendaoud” meme come from?
According to Wikipedia, Jawad Bendaoud was born on 30 August 1986 in Épinay-sur-Seine. He is known for having housed in Saint-Denis two men involved in the 13 November 2015 attacks, Abdelhamid Abaaoud and Chakib Akrouh, whom he says he sheltered without knowing who they were. They were killed in the police operation of 18 November 2015. His arrest, filmed live, earned him the nickname “the landlord of Daesh”. His statements were widely mocked on social media. Tried in Paris in 2018, he was acquitted on 14 February 2018 of concealing terrorist offenders, then sentenced on appeal to four years in prison on 29 March 2019. The Court of Cassation ruled on the civil side on 15 February 2022. He has since been active online, notably in video on TikTok.
