FRANCE AND THE JEWISH PEOPLE – OK

This is an email received recently from France ….. a must read

Bad news from France …REAL BAD! for French Jews…

Once again, the real news in France  is conveniently not being
reported as it should. To give you an idea of what’s going on in that
country where there are now between 5 and 6 million Muslims and about
600,000 Jews, here is an E-mail that came from a Jew living in France .

Please read! "Will the world say nothing – again – as it did in
Hitler’s time?" He writes: "I AM A JEW — therefore I am forwarding
this to everyone on all my e-mail lists. I will not sit back and do
nothing. Nowhere have the flames of anti-Semitism burned more
furiously than in France . In Lyon , a car was rammed into a synagogue
and set on fire. In Montpellier , the Jewish religious center was
firebombed; so were synagogues in Strasbourgand Marseilles ; so was a
Jewish school in   Creteil  – all recently. A Jewish sports club in
Toulouse was attacked with Molotov cocktails and on the statue of
Alfred Dreyfus, in   Paris  , the words ‘Dirty Jew’ were painted. In
Bondy, 15 men beat up members of a Jewish football team with sticks
and metal bars. The bus that takes Jewish children to school in
Aubervilliers  has been attacked three times in the last 14 months.
According to the Police, metropolitan Paris has seen 10 to 12
anti-Jewish incidents PER DAY in the past 30 days. Walls in Jewish
neighborhoods have been defaced with slogans proclaiming ‘Jews to the
gas chambers’ and ‘Death to the Jews.’ A gunman opened fire on a
kosher butcher’s shop (and, of course, the butcher) inToulouse, France
. A Jewish couple in their 20’s were beaten up by five men in
Villeurbanne , Fran ce  (the woman was pregnant). A Jewish school was
broken into and vandalized in   Sarcelles , France  . This was just in
the past week."

"So I call on you, whether you are a fellow Jew, a friend, or merely a
person with the capacity and desire to distinguish decency from
depravity, to do – at least – these three simple things:

First, care enough to stay informed. Don’t ever let yourself become
deluded into thinking that this is not your fight. I remind you of
what Pastor Neimoller said in World War II: ‘First they came for the
Communists, and I didn’t speak up, because I wasn’t a Communist. Then
they came for the Jews, and I didn’t speak up, because I wasn’t a Jew.
Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn’t speak up, because I was
a Protestant. Then they came for me, and by that time there was no one
left to speak up for me.’

Second, boycott France and French products. Only the Arab countries
are more toxically anti-Semitic and, unlike them, France exports more
than just oil and hatred. So boycott their wines and their perfumes.
Boycott their clothes and their foodstuffs. Boycott their movies.
Definitely boycott their shores. If we are resolved we can exert
amazing pressure and, whatever else we may know about the French, we
most certainly know that they are like a cobweb in a hurricane in the
face of well-directed pressure.

Third, send this along to your family, your friends, and your
co-workers. Think of all of the people of good conscience that you
know and let them know that you – and the people that you care – about
need their help.

The number one bestselling book in France is….’September 11: The
Frightening Fraud’ which argues that no plane ever hit the Pentagon!

Please Pass This On, Let’s not let history repeat itself, thank-you
for your time and consideration."

I am neither French nor Jew but I see problems in treating anyone differently because of their nationality. I am sure there are some lovely people in France who do not deserve to be hated.

The French have a huge population of Muslims and many more of the European countries, including Great Britain, are also getting huge Muslim populations. Some of them are radical in their beliefs and practices and even the governments there fear them. This is the real problem and the US should really watch out, because we have some of those same people in our country too.

And, of course, Canada too.

i think that’s wrong. people shouldn’t have to be afraid because they are of a certain nationality or religion. i didn’t realize that france had such problems. i thought france accepted all with no problem. take care,

This is so sad. I ache for those Jews in France who are afraid for their safety. I also ache for those peaceful Muslims in France who are being unjustly labelled as violent because (I suspect) a small minority of radical, angry, misguided Muslims are attacking French Jews. The suggestion in this e-mail bothers me: “… boycott France and French products. Only the Arab countries are more toxicallyanti-Semitic….” This assumes that the whole French nation is anti-semitic, that everyone deserves to be punished. What evidence is there that it is a majority, not a small minority, that are behaving in this way? Punishment of a majority because of the behaviour of a tiny minority often does the opposite of what it intends: it converts moderates into radicals. Instead, I believe, it is better to recognise the moderate Muslims and support them, to recognise the efforts the French government is making to overcome this behaviour.
