Jews Should Leave France

According to a story in the Jerusalem Post (free reg.), the prominent French Nazi-hunter Serge Klarsfeld said this weekend that French Jews would be best off leaving the country, if they can.

While clearly differentiating between the rise of Nazi power in the late 1930s and the situation in France today, Klarsfeld drew a direct parallel to the Holocaust, stating that history has proven it would have been best "had the Jews of Poland and the Jews of Austria left Europe when they could have."

Klarsfeld's remarks come on the heels of reports that the Jewish Agency was planning to launch a campaign to persuade French Jews to immigrate to Israel to escape a wave of anti-Semitism.

There are about 600,000 Jews in France versus 6 million Muslims and the government has documented 180 attacks or threats against Jews or Jewish-owned property since January, attributed to an increasingly violent second- and third-generation Muslim population. Attacks and threats are at a rate of more than one a day, every day, and there's no reason to believe the rate will do anything but increase.

Why aren't the leftists and the elite media calling out for diversity and tolerance on the part of the Muslim community? Societies are continually reminding their citizenry that they must be tolerant of the followers of the religion of peace, but there is nobody directing the same message to the Muslims.

Personally, if I were in France and Jewish, I'd move somewhere that is safer. Hell, forget that. If I were in France, I'd move just because it's France. With the Muslim population growing exponentially versus the non-Muslim population, it will soon be an Islamic theocracy anyway.
