    All Jews are... You did not answer my question....When are you leaving the US and going back to wherever you came from? Are you going to lead by example or not?

    Hi, I wasn't trying to deflect. Today I heard them speaking and saying that they could help each other.

    I don't think Muslims are the only reason for antisemitism in France Borat and I seem to remember that when it was originally decided that that was the reason and it was investigated several years ago, then at least it was found it was not so.

    It is highly unlikely there will be another terror attack in France for a long time. Might happen but unlikely.

    If it were just Muslims I think it would be far easier for Jews to work with them and sort it out.

    It is this man who has been getting a lot of credit for antisemitism in France

    As you will see he has close ties with Le Penn. Apart from the shock of the last week, that I think is where the more dangerous position is for French Jews

    He is absolutely right and entitled to do that, he could even invite me personally to go and live in Israel, if he wants ... so what?

    I remember that when Benigni won a Oscar, there was Bill Clinton at the White House, during the TV program they presented videos with a clear reference to the European [in particular Italian] immigration to the United States ... US administration was luring Italians to go to America [better Italians than Mexicans? I guess this was the reasoning of the Hollywood academy, may be after some suggestions coming from Washington ...].

    Because the european far right has been such a friend to jews. And the topic of rising right wing extremism is completely unrelated to islamophobia.


    Edit: How on earth did islamophobia become homophobia?

    Alexa, it's very simple really. French Jews, European Jews, American Jews, Israeli Jews are concerned with the growth of Muslim terrorism, not far-right one.They consider leaving Europe because of Europe's islamization, not because of Le Pen. They worry every day that their loved ones may get mugged or murdered by muslim extremists or their uber-leftist sympathizers, not right-wingers. Somehow I will take their concerns over your spin, deflections and finger pointing any day.

    Well they are foolish then because it is the far right that is on the march at the moment and may well be in government in France at their next elections.

    British Jews do not consider leaving Britain because of Muslims. I suspect you are trying to get them to fight Israel's wars for her.

    Many Israelis have applied for citizenship elsewhere and moved their money.... So many of the settlers they have recruited are bottom of the barrel types.. They won't work or serve in the IDF ... preferring to have lots of children, study torah and live on the dole.

    One of the saddest things is that Israel will risk causing antisemitism to diaspora Jews and does not give a damn about it because she simply wants to get as many Jews as she can living in Israel and by that justify taking more Palestinian land then probably on to the Lebanon and then :bored:

    For an Italian this is obvious ... we ask to Italians abroad to vote for our parliament ... [and American Italians elect their representatives in Rome ...].
    Remember that in the world there are 120,000,000 of Italians, but only 60,000,000 live in Italy ...

    Very true... but Israelis with means and opportunity will leave and only the settler types will remain.

    My friend you are splitting hairs, we do not have the time to think that way...
    Israel is flourishing, bustling society, we are busy defending our land... I would want Israel to reach the 15 Million margin from the present 8,3 million. I am sure then that things will improve for the Jews.

    Oh I am sure they will be put in the settlements. That is why I thought most French Jews would not like it - as someone said 'out of the frying pan into the fire'.

    Speaking of the dole... 80% of the 50 Million Muslims in Europe are on the dole... For some of them, this is one good reason not to integrate and get paid for it.

    50 million Muslims are presently draining their hosts treasury... Let us see how long this will carry on... demonstrations started in Germany long before the killings in Paris.

    In any case, keeping a more comprehensive viewpoint, if it is possible to choose, better to remain in France, for French Jews. It's a personal feeling [they can decide as they feel, clear], but Israel is really a crowded country in comparison with France. So French Jews living in the French countryside should spend more than a thought before of moving to Israel. French Jews living in Paris can move ... Paris is as crowded as Tel Aviv ...

    So you do not mention my country and I will not mention yours nor the pant less Scots.

    Ah, someone who actually lives in Israel. My question, given that Israel appears to be in a constant state of readiness for war and actually has to deal with extremely violent acts from outside and inside its borders, would French Jews be any safer in Israel? Sorry if it's an impossible question but it seems to me that if a Jew has decided not to move to Israel for other reasons then would security of the person be the issue that motivated someone to move?

    This is not true. Just a bit more of the hate mongering from Israel towards European Muslims

    Again let us worry about that... FYI there are 800,000 Arabs from the surrounding Arab states, some of them are sleeper cells, some are ISIS and some are Hamas when these will leave we will have even more space.

    I say to the [Illegal Arab Muslims of Israel]... leave now before thing become worse!!

    We can only caution Jews to return home.
    Of course this is an individual decision...
