1. Les juifs? Pahh!
Gideon Reader   (01.31.09)
M. Le president, les juifs are revolting. Sarcoma: "They certainly are." Sarkomaniac the mighty midget is more interested in having subdued gang of "YOUTS" than concerning his mini-self about a bunch a Jews. Unless they are willing to pay, that is. French Jews. Wait. make that Jews. You are not French. Ask any Frenchman. Getteth thy asses outeth of the nation noted for it's long vacations, bitter whine, being cheesey, bath soap frugality, hirsute legs of it's women,and hating it's JOOOS. They do not want you, and you must be tired of being second class since Moshe was a buck sgt.
2. Turn to Aliyah NOT Sarkozy!
David ,   Karmiel, Israel   (01.31.09)
The only safe place for a Jew is in Israel. Anti-Semitism is rampant again all over the world. The South African Deputy Foreign Minister wants to drive the Jews from the shores of South Africa. Demonstrators led by Nazi type Palestinians call for "Death to the Jews" in London, Paris, Berlin, Bangkok and other capitals. They are even supported by Members of Parliament in Britain and other countries. The writing is once again on the wall and we must not make the same mistake that the Jews in Europe made in the 1930's. Come home now! Make Aliyah!
3. The French are scared to death .....
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (01.31.09)
They worry about their own home-grown intifada, just like the rest of Eurabia. They can't even talk about the problem much less do anything about it. Look at the language they use - ''youths'' - unidentified youths, of course. ''a portion of the population'' - again, an unidentified portion. '' we are against anti-Semitism AND Islamophobia - except there are no attacks on Muslims by Jews. ''met leaders of the Jewish AND Muslim communities'' - but we all know where the violence comes from, from Muslims only. The French police are afraid to even enter Muslim neighborhoods. This is similar to other ''no-go'' areas in all of Europe's big cities. Today, it's against Jews but tomorrow it will be against the French themselves. ''First the Saturday people, then the Sunday people ......''
4. They should move to Israel
Rabbi Jochanan ,   Gush Chalav, Israel   (01.31.09)
...and turn to G-od, not to flesh & blood!
5. POOR JEWS
Libyan Guy ,   Italy   (01.31.09)
What are you jews still doing in france, go to your promissed land, where you can find a place, where to die, rather then to sit in France and cry.
6. I realize it is hard
Boaz ,   Haifa   (01.31.09)
but European Jews and diaspora Jews in general must move to Israel. Think about whats best for your children. Even though we live in a "post modern society' or whatever bullshit they call it now, anti-semitism will never dissapear.
7. sarkozy , Hamas, and his arab minirity
mike cato ,   usa   (01.31.09)
Sarkozy will do nothing forceful and substantial to stop the attacks against Jews in France. He cannot because 1. he is in stark fear of his restive, seething, powerful Muslim minority. 2. He must consider the danger to the uninterupted flow of oil from the Middle East. Sarkozy and France is in check-mate , They are cornered by their large, powerful Arab minority. Sarkozy (and Blair for these same reasons) will bow and scrape before Hamas. Conclusions: 1 French Jews must consider leaving France em masse for The US, Canada, and Israel. Sarkozy and Blair will continue to permit Hamas, Islamic Jihad to rearm and continue its attacks against Israel. It is simply in the self-interest. It has very little to do , in my opinion, with anti-semitism I pre
8. You should not have bombed Mosques
Tayfun_Turkey ,   Istanbul   (01.31.09)
There are things to be done to prevent attacks at Jewish people of France 1. France should arrest all French Jewsh who were in Israeli and took part in Operation, and they should be tried in war criminals court, 2. France should make inquiries if there are any zionist supporting and money sending entities in France to Israeli zionist organizations, then seize money and send rest of that money to Gaza victims. By this two action France will ensure muslim population that In france justice rules and France is not a hotbed of zionism where war criminals may find refuge.
9. What? Oh, I get it,...
Gideon Reader   (01.31.09)
Youths? Oh. You mean "YOUTS". (rent film "My cousin Vinny" to really appreciate the reference.
10. French
Walt K ,   Sherbrooke, Canada   (01.31.09)
The problem with Frenchie is that they try everytime to arise on an intellectual nivel. They think that if they don't talk about religious or ethnical concerns... They don't exist, but in reality, the day they will open their eyes... Muslims will have the control of the State. At the end, Frenchies like to be the birth rate champion of Europe, but how many babies are muslims ???
11. Sarkozy
Sarit ,   Jerusalem   (01.31.09)
This should concern Sarkozy as his son married a Jewish girl and his future grandchildren will be Jewish.
12. mosques- how about synagogues?
Lisa ,   Switzerland   (01.31.09)
Tayfun- Turkey: it is ok for you muslims to target churches and synagogues? You have been doing it for years- now all of a sudden you get really sensitive about your precious mosques? Listen- Mister: what makes you right and everybody else is wrong? Muslims are NOT the French population, not Spanish, not German- those countries gave you people a home, gave you work, allowed you to bring your families to Europe, made you citizens, some of you live better than the native Europeans- and now YOU DARE make demands- France is NOT GOING TO BE A HOTBED FOR ISLAMOFASCISTS - so cool it. So far Europeans have been kind, hospitable and politically correct- but you are pushing your luck...people are getting sick and tired of your demonstrations, attacks, demands for special treatment etc...you are going to fit it, be good citizens- or else.....
13. #8
Non-Jew ,   Bradford England   (01.31.09)
Hang on a minute, Tayfun. Whatever the rights and wrongs of whatever went on in Gaza, French Jews did NOT bomb any mosques! To blame them for what went on in Gaza is like me (a British citizen)blaming all British Muslims for the recent events in Darfur! I wouldn't even British Muslims as a group for the London Bombings, because that also had nothing to do with the vast majority of them! Your stance obviously arises from an unjustifyable animosity to all Jews, purely on account of their race/religion, which is a stance known as ANTI-SEMITISM! Hence your comment can only
14. #5 Poor Libyan Guy
Cynthia ,   USA   (01.31.09)
What are you doing in Italy? You don't have an Italian heart. I'm sure there are many Europeans who would like you to go back to Libya where you can rant 24/7 about Jews and Israel. We will live where we want. Didn't you get the memo?
15. Read the French talk backs
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (01.31.09)
after articles regarding gaza op and those anti Israel demos . Most of them are fed up with those violent hooligans . They are fed up with the burning cars . And they don't talk about a "minority" nor "youth" , they say it openly . If you want to be violent they tell them , go to gaza , and not in Paris , Marseille , Toulouse , Lyon and other places . The same in a Belgian paper , they too are fed up with those violent immigrants .
16. Walt K- Canada- Quebec?
Miriam ,   Canada   (01.31.09)
Walt- maybe you should not open your mouth too wide- remember how Quebec PAYS people to have children? You hate the French? You leave politics to the French- they have been around a lot longer than Canada... you are in no position to tell other countries how to run their business.
17. Gideon reader
Lisa ,   switzerland   (01.31.09)
who are you? Hard to say from your mail if you are for or against Jews- this is the phoniest French accent I have seen- you watch too many movies... few French wouldstoop so low and talk like you do- ever heard of political correctness? I guess not.
18. #5 Libyan Jews very happy in Israel
LibyanJew ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (02.01.09)
#5 Thanks Libyan for persecuting us Libyan Jews. You were the most cruel of all the Arab countries. We are very happy in Israel now.
19. #8 Turkey should pay Armenians and Kurds compensation
Elly ,   Vienna, Austria   (02.01.09)
#8 No all Turks in Europe should have their assets expropriated and their money given to the Armenians and Kurds.
20. Move to Brasil - The future is here and you're welcome
Narah Correa ,   BRASIL   (02.01.09)
21. And our islamic populacion is 0,01% Hahaha
Narah Correa ,   BRASIL   (02.01.09)
And the catolic church lost all its power........ thanks God !!!!!!
22. Muslims vs Jews
Rachel ,   Israel   (02.01.09)
If I recall correctly, the Muslims in France outnumber the Jews something like 10 to 1. So the writing is on the wall.
23. Lybian is right, come back quickly before
avi   (02.01.09)
frenchies rally Petain one more time ! France is cursed to be lead by a boy as it is said.

Ede udochukwu ,   Nigeria   (02.01.09)
evrytime u people burn churches and everyone turns a blind eye but when it concerns mosques u cry foul.u child raper,have no balls to mk women like u so u formul8 a religion where they subject little girls to all kinds of things.Be warned.
25. Charles, i was recently in the UK
meg ,   Israel   (02.01.09)
and they are just as fed up with it all. Speak to the "man/woman on the street" and he/she will tell you exactly what they think. Guess the same for most of Europe . But due to all this polical correctness, they are afraid to speak openly for fear of arrest for rascism. I do find the French call a "spade a spade" unlike the Brits.
26. What about Gilad Shalit?
Joan ,   Haifa   (02.01.09)
He is a French citizen, after all.
27. French Jews ask Sarkozy
Adam ,   Heart of Eurabia   (02.15.09)
Sarko is unable and/or unwiling to defend ethnic French against those barbarians the French Jews are delusional if they think he will lift finger for them. Come back to Israel and help kick out Arab ocupiers from Eretz Israel.
