France Is Not an Anti-Semitic Nation

By Laurent Fabius and Bernard Cazeneuve, published in the New York Times July 10, 2014

Few democratic societies are as rich in populations of diverse origins as France’s. This is one of the many traits France shares with the United States. Both are countries of immigrants where citizenship is universal and does not depend on one’s ethnic or religious origins.

Yes, the government has proposed a coherent plan of action against terrorism

By Eve Gani        

France, like other countries of the European Union, suffers from so-called “violent radical engagement,” whereby its citizens have been known to join militant activists abroad.  One prime example of this phenomenon is French youth departing to Syria to join that country’s militant groups. This engagement of civilians in insurgent areas "in the name of the ummah" (community) is not a new occurrence, as French citizens have already taken part in the conflicts in Bosnia, Afghanistan, Chechnya, and Iraq, similarly in the name of jihad.

Brussels attack fruit of Muslim incitement

By Noah Klieger published in Yedioth Aharonot May 26, 2014

As long as European authorities fail to take drastic measures against anti-Israel instigators, murderous attacks on Jews will only increase.

The Banality of Anger

By Roger Cohen, published in the New York Times May 26, 2014

Nowhere is the crisis of modernity felt more acutely than in France where for a quarter-century now globalization has brought moroseness and mistrust on an epic scale. Uneasy with capitalism, uncomfortable with flexibility, unpersuaded by the so-called Anglo-Saxon model, France has retreated into its rancor. Immigrants and openness have constituted threat more than possibility.

Far-right parties sweeping EU vote should serve as warning sign

By Asaf Ronel, published in Haaretz May 27, 2014

The shared fear of Muslims has not yet led major Jewish organizations to lift their boycotts against dubious politicians in far-right parties.

The investigation of Sunday’s shooting at the Jewish Museum in Brussel is still ongoing, and assessments regarding the motive are varied, but Belgian authorities say the attack, which is being investigated as a terror incident, has anti-Semitic characteristics.
