The threat to France’s Jews | Natasha Lehrer |Carlomaria Grassi

The
French Jewish population, with its multiple family ties with Israel, is
probably the most Zionist of all Jewish communities in the diaspora. During the
exodus from French North Africa during the 1950s and 60s, around 300,000 Jews
emigrated to France, while a similar number left for Israel. Many families were
split, with one sibling heading for each destination. For many Jews in France,
Israel is already sort of home. Those who can afford it have bought apartments
in seaside towns like Tel Aviv, Netanya, Ra’anana and Hertzliya as holiday
homes.
