Six decades after the end of the Holocaust, the prominent French Nazi-hunter Serge Klarsfeld said this weekend that French Jews would be best off leaving the country.

Same Klarsfeld welcomed the deafeat of French nationalist who wanted to stop the flood of Muslim immigration:

"If elected, Le Pen says he will try to limit immigration. He opposes abortion, supports the death penalty and has often been accused of being anti-Semitic.
[...]
Noted Nazi hunter Serge Klarsfeld and philosopher Bernard-Henri Levy were among the other personalities at the Pantheon who urged voters to support Chirac in the final round."

What is the logic - open the gates for Muslims and then flee crying the victimization? If they these "Nazi hunters" do not like Le Pen (and I do not blame them for that) they SHOULD promote some nationalist France First alternative and help to shut the door!

Political correctness is the plague of our times.

I understand the concept, the National Front will deal with the Islamics first, the Jews later, though it’s not one I subscribe to. Personally, it’s not clear to me that the Jewish community are the ones that “opened the gates” for Muslims, nor am I aware of them opposing immigration either. It appears to me to be a French issue, not a Jewish issue, and yes, French Jews are (were?) French.

As to the specifics of your question, why “Nazi hunters” don’t support LePen and the National Front, it may have something to do with the fact that the parties founders, along with LePen, consisted of a Vichy official and a member of the SS. David Duke's "tough on immigration" too. Not supporting those folk would seem to be a no brainer to a Holocaust survivor.

I don’t know the French political scene well enough to know if there’s a party that’s tough on immigration that isn’t run by racists and ex Nazis. As to creating one, I realize LePen is on record as saying the Jews bought Chirac (in the late 90’s), but I don’t buy it.
