Alan ,   SA   (01.11.15)
2. France is finished
Eurabia   (01.11.15)
3. The French Republic is already a failure
Scott ,   Ramat Gan   (01.11.15)
France needs to get much tougher on crime & terrorism. One of the terrorists in the recent attacks was previously convicted of terrorism & sentenced to 18 months. There needs to be much stricter sentencing & a zero-tolerance policy for incitement & those who go tor Muslim countries for terrorist training.
4. We could do with a 100-200.000 here; but the accent,OY!:-)))

5. The truth is
Jack D   (01.11.15)
in Israel it's not safe either. Just a few weeks ago terrorists murdered 4 in Jerusalem, and just a week or 2 before that more were killed. Let's not kid ourselves. Israel is as safe as France or any other country that harbors Arabs.
6. Twice expelled
robert ,   antwerp   (01.11.15)
What Valls says about Jews never have been expelled from France is not true.They xere twice during the middle ages
7. Mr:Valls don' t disinform people
Merca ,   Barcelona.SPAIN   (01.11.15)
Spain expelled jews 600 years ago like England 800 years ago and many other countries but in Spain jews were explelled alive.In the tolerant France,during WWII jews were sent to die to Auschwitz and other nazi camps.
8. This PM needs history lessons
(01.11.15)
And it was before the spanish expulsion in 1492. At that time the communauty in France was much smaller than is Spain. But still, they were expulsed and of course the french king kept their belongings! Jewish people "came back" in france territory when Louis XIV invaded Strasbourg. Then in WWII, tenth of thousand were sent to death.
9. THE BEST THING
tTEL EM STRAIGHT ,   SAFED OBVIOUS   (01.11.15)
The best ,and safest ,thing for french jews to do is to leave ,AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
10.  THE SAD TRUTH IS :
TEL DA TRUTH ,   SAFED OBVIOUS   (01.11.15)
France is unable to protect its jewish citizens . Jews should leave France and come home to Israel immediately.
11. deport Immediately
reAL vision ,   united States   (01.11.15)
Time for france and europe to begin a policy that sharia laws arenot valid in europe and those who break their laws will be jailed and then deported along with their whole families back to their country of origin
12. wrong
REAL vision ,   united States   (01.11.15)
It does NOTstem from economic frustration and political anger at Israel: It stems from the INTOLERANCE OF ISLAM toward all other religions...especially judaism and encouraged by their supposedly but fraudulent men of god, the clerics and mullahs
13. Stupid Stupid Stupid....
Dror ,   Haifa, Israel   (01.11.15)
Go ahead and stay in France.. Connard Francaise
14. WRONG OPTION
Robert ,   Israel   (01.11.15)
France has long ago decided to change their intelligent and industrious people who elevated France's quality of life and humanity. Instead, France opted to shelter problematic people, followers of a kind of religion which was not compatible with Christian and Jewish values and that sooner or later would take hold of their whole country. It is a pity that France's rulers could not see farther than the end of their own nose.
15. Aliah
aa ,   Jerusalem Israel   (01.11.15)
The government should instead of telling the french to make aliyah, which is a blessed thing, create an atmosphere that will make it more welcoming. Whether financial or social or religious.
16. "Pavlovian calls for Aliyah"??
Natan B. ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (01.11.15)
"The Israeli government must not repeat Pavlovian calls for Aliyah." It defies belief that a Rabbi could actually utter such words. There is no greater honor or Mitzva for any Jew to do than to make his home in the Land of Israel. Shame on Rabbi Margolin!!!!
17. Not much different then WWII
HIstory nut ,   Israel   (01.11.15)
And the rabbi says it isn't a good reason to make aliyah. When you don't learn from history.....
18. The PM of France is RIGHT
Shalom ,   Ashdod   (01.11.15)
He knows that when the Jews leave, that country goes down the drain because the Jewish people are the source of berakha and blessing to the place.
19. make aliyah Israel will we come you with open arms
michelle ,   israel   (01.11.15)
20. A strong message to Israel's government.
Ian   (01.11.15)
I have no confidence in this French government.It's no more than Frances version of Tony Blair's New Labour UK government.It'll just engage in more appeasement ,Israel bashing and support for the Fatah/PA terrorists in the hope of being left in peace by Islamic terrorists. The clear message to Israel's government is that there are millions of Jewish people outside the State of Israel who need somewhere to escape to.Israel's government shouldn't give up a square inch of the Land of Israel to anyone.It's all needed by Jews. THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
21. France & Jews
Edy Burak ,   miami , USA   (01.11.15)
is late , the jews should leave TRUCHOLANDIA(argentina) , Venezuela , Turkey & France.-
22. If 100,000 French Jews leave France
BUILD BABY BUILD !!!   (01.11.15)
Israel better build a bunch of new homes baby !! SACRE' BLU! MORE HOMES NEEDED IMMEDIATELY !!! BUILD A HOME SAVE A JEW!!!!
23. Rabbi Menachem Margolin You got it 'very' wrong
David ,   Shiloh Israel   (01.11.15)
I totally agree that Jews should feel safe anywhere in the world and also free to make their own decisions about making Aliyah. However, the very definition of being a Jew is based on being part of the Children of Israel (righteous converts included) and that in turn is based upon both the name of our forefather, and the land that bears his name. If you are a learned rabbi, then I'm sure you'll know just how many times our Torah commands us to settle the land, and that is not the EU! Therefore, we have an obligation to make Aliyah, and your voice against it just serves to put my brothers in greater danger, because the stronger we are on 'our own' land also make us stronger against these monsters. .
24. France and Jews
philip max ,   USA:NYC   (01.11.15)
France has a horrible history with Jews. The Talmud was first burned in France in the 14th century. Jews were frequently summarily expelled from towns and municipalities; only to be brought back with Charters granting relief, and then summarily expelled again. Some municipalities had their Jews expelled and returned as many as 15 times during the Middle Ages. And..in the 20th century, the French willingly volunteered to send 75,000 Jews to extermination camps. What a cesspool! Fr. Never compensated victims of Vichy murderers.
25. FRENCH JEWS: LEAVE TO ISRAEL .
carlos ,   San Diego CA   (01.11.15)
if you stay muslims will kill you and the French won't lift a finger
26. Merca Barcelona Spain no 7
JUDAH THE LION ,   AL QUDS ALYAHUDI   (01.11.15)
Jews were forced to convert to Christianity. Those who refused were expelled without anything, and some were burnt, killed, and some were thrown into hot oil alive. Spain and Portugal were ruthless. They killed men,women, old, young, pregnant, infants. Too much Jewish Blood with them.
27. Haham gadol
Raphael ,   Netanya   (01.11.15)
Rabbi Margolin stays on the same line as Avram Burg, Shlomo Sand, Rony Brauman, who took a french passport (so did also the "regretted" Yasser Arafat)
28. or maybe
yonatan   (01.11.15)
because most of them are holding high positions in the economy and politics of france. not in a way they "control france" in Elders of Zion's style, but because they've fit well to the french society and when they leave they're gonna leave behind them an empty space in their positions, which will lead to a great damage to the country's economy and security.
29. France already surrendered
sheik rattle & roll ,   USA   (01.11.15)
Like they always do when they have to fight. They need to adopt a constitution like the US. Freedom from religion and freedom of religion. If you choose to worship the Sun god that should be your right, however if you try to force the Sun god down somebody throats that should be against the law. You can't let a minority of refugees take control of entire neighborhoods and impose religious law. The French government has surrendered again and now it is too late.
30. To #25
Tzvika ,   Israel   (01.11.15)
They could move to San Diego, right?
