1. Make aliyah and the novelty with wear off after moving here
Geveret ,   Tel Aviv   (06.05.12)
I made aliyah last year and I feel like I have gone back 20 years in many ways. I will do my year here and leave. Just stay in France.
2. Ask the 1,000's of French that have said enough
Paul ,   Jerusalem   (06.05.12)
"As for the possibility of making aliyah, Azoulay said "a similar problem exists in Israel, so moving there is not necessarily the solution. We face different enemies over the years, but the Jews continue to live." Wrong, wrong, wrong, the problem is Jews not making Aliyah. Here you can bask in the beauty of Israel, there you bask in the spit of unredeemable misfits.
3. Well, so what? if you don't like it...LEAVE!
Peter ,   Vienna-Austria   (06.05.12)
In times like this gods chosen consider making aliyah...perhaps he's not too well informed about any of this....
4. Arabic France
Juan ,   Argentina   (06.05.12)
People complain Europe is becoming an Islamist place. So...
5. Jews & Self-Defense
The Prophetess ,   SC, USA   (06.05.12)
"... my son and two of his friends were surprised to see the same three young Arab accompanied by 10 other teenagers. This time they were armed with a hammer and metal objects." How about "surprising" the arabs with a concealed S&W or Ruger? Get with it Haverim: You'd better grow a set of Baytzim (Women, too) and Defend Your Own Lives, because the goyishe police forces will soon tire of being your shield.
6. #1Make aliyah and the novelty with wear off after moving her
Dave ,   Haifa, Israel   (06.05.12)
Really! I moved to Israel from Australia 4 years ago. Best thing i have ever done
7. #1, The world was a better place 20 years ago.

8. # 5 Prophetess
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (06.05.12)
Perhaps their laws don't allow for it.
9. Israel is not the same as France
moriah ,   sacramento usa   (06.05.12)
When the sh*t hits the fan in France do you think the police or the French army will help you? Go to Israel - you live in a Jewish community- there are Jewish police and the IDF. Israel is the Jewish homeland... g
10. Israel is awesome
Jacob Erickson ,   Holon Israel   (06.05.12)
Just come for Taglit or a vacation, Israel will heal all wounds. You will feel the pride of the Jewish people here. Israel is NOT France. Take a Krav Maga class back home, learn the lesson of Israel, we need to protect ourselves, and work together to do so. And next time those bastards come back, leave them bleading on the street and afraid to come out of their houses again.
11. #6 That says a lot about what you did in Aussie
Israel ,   to Australia   (06.05.12)
I am ready to make the other way around
12. 9 - Jewish Police?
Gregg ,   Haifa, IL   (06.05.12)
When was the last time you were in Israel? Cause ain't such thing as Jewish police !
13. Maybe
Paul ,   South Africa   (06.05.12)
Its time these wimpy Jews learnt self defence & used it as a community, or just stay the victim. To my knowledge there has been hardly any attacks on Jews here in my country, even though we have a very large muslim population & a reasonable sized neo-nazi followers. the reason is simple, we fight back. You hit us-we find you & hit you back. Wake up French Jews & grow some balls. Militant Judaism is only way to go.
14. #6 because Australia is rough and has no class,
(06.05.12)
a bit like Israel.
15. #9 yes, go to Israel and they rip olim off
Olim #2   (06.05.12)
They hear you're foreign/olim in the shuk, they smell the french perfums and the shekels..
16. #10 this isnt a James Bond movie, Jacob. But I am sure they
Shmuel.. ,   Jerusalem   (06.05.12)
appreciate your advice.
17. #2 Yes, and ask them did they throw away French passports
(06.05.12)
18. #4, yes Juan - people who dont travel much,Americans usually
(06.05.12)
19. Nothing new here...
Efraim ,   in Virginia   (06.05.12)
This time its muslims with rags. Last time it was nazis in pretty suits. Defend yourselves! The animals are coward as they come with large groups. A jewish defense league is needed. Crack some skulls if you have to.
20. I wish the victims a speedy recovery!
me ,   here   (06.05.12)
If the psychological symptoms described above continues, there is very efficient treatment for Post Traumatic Syndrom here in Israel. Victims of crime can get this therapy as well as victims of terror and the like. I do hope that will not be necessary, but different people take things differently, and if need be, there is help to get!
21. Dreyfus,Vichy,Le Pen=Get out quick!
RSeener ,   London England   (06.05.12)
22. toughten up or
arne ,   chicago usa   (06.05.12)
get the hell out--here in the U.S. we fought jew haters all the time--if the jews of france can't fight then get the hell out.
23. Paul, don't be emotional #2 in response to #1
Buskila ,   South America   (06.05.12)
Alyah is no longer like the one the Moroccan Jews made 1940-1970, when the results as we know today were and are quite lives changing for generations. What Mr. Azulay is expressing is the personal commitment of each Oleh, not as a consequences of a traumatic event, but as a game changing move in one's life. Furthermore, the sense of justice and tolerance should not be pushed aside and a prefabricated solution (escaping to Israel) be made as a substitute. We do not in any strech of imagination in a 'hitlerian' period. Though to be a declared a citizen and confirmed as such by a democartic State (France), does posit duties upon it to allow citizens to fill their way of life. Sometimes, leaving for Dimona, Ofakim, Sderot and Netivut does not in anyway fulfill one's dream of achieving justice and hapiness.
24. In France, as it seems, these acts
One out of ,   millions   (06.05.12)
have been happening lately and have become a pattern. The Arabs there have taken the law in their own hands and are shaping up something very ugly and dangerous. But the Jews in France have a choice today, to come home to Israel, a choice they did not have during WWII. Then, they had been sacrificed for nothing ! Then, the Nazis did that. Today, the Islamic world wants to do the same, to murder all the Jews and to lay their claws on Europe first and next on... Guess ! This Islamic world, at least in Israel has and will have an insurmountable problem. We, the Israelis have a very strong army of defence called IDF. And we will never hesitate to operate it when times are dire and there is need to save Jewish and Israeli lives.
25. I stopped reading this article at...
Jewish Patriot ,   Galut   (06.06.12)
I stopped reading this article at the part "not angry". We are very angry, and we don't tolerate antisemitism from anyone. Anyone who is not angry must experience the Holocaust again?? We learnt from history, we'll protect ourselves, and our enemes will be demolished. My leader is Joshua and not the liberal and self-hating rabbis of Europe who are doing the same mistake like their ancestors before the holocaust. We are angry, and we'll have horrible revenge! never again!
26. #11 I was a well paid lawyer in Australia
Dave ,   Haifa, Israel   (06.06.12)
and now I'm a well paid lawyer in Israel
27. #14 Nothing wrong with Australia or Israel
Dave ,   Haifa, Israel   (06.06.12)
28. It's time for us to fight back
Barak ,   Toronto, Canada   (06.06.12)
One of the biggest problems we have is that we refuse to fight back. We are the perpetual victims because when people do wrong onto us, we cry about it. The Arabs attack us wherever we go. If you're a Jew, you're not safe anywhere. Similar attacks on Jews happened at my university, and the administration did nothing. Attacks against Jews by Arabs is no longer even considered a "hate crime." Now they're called "nationalistically motivated." It's time for us to fight back. Let's make them scared to leave their homes.
29. Are French Jews expected to let Moslem occupiers take their
land,flee to Israel?   (06.06.12)
Didn't Moslems occupy so many other lands through wars and then made all non-Moslems specially Jews leave so that they can have all thoes "Arab states" and "Moslem states" all to themselvevs? look at Middle EAst map. do you see any countries in the region not belonging to Arabs and Moslems besides Israel? even in Israel Arab occupiers want to reoccupy it and steal it from Jews.
30. This is as wrong as Bietar jewish fans..
Rami of Nazareth ,   Israel   (06.06.12)
chanting death to arabs then attacking innocent arabs in the Malha Mall. In the same breath u condemn anti-semitisim in europe you should condemn the one commited by jews as well.
