The Bloc Quebecois wants to bring them all to Canada.
Ironically, I think that much of the intellectual energy behind the decades long push toward multiculturalism and high immigration rates was supplied by liberal Jews who believed that they would be safer and more at home in a multicultural nation than in a culturally consolidated, largely Christian nation.
Happily, many, many Jews (who it seems to me are natural conservatives) have come over to our side and realize that the nation needs some cultural coherence, which, in this country, would necessarily be Christian.
This is a nasty little irony and I point it out with no intent to offend anyone. But when there is a major, pertinent aspect of this kind of historical/cultural analysis that political correctness drives underground, I just feel the need to say it out loud.
(btw, I am a cultural (i.e., non-believing) Christian who also could never be one hundred per cent comfortable in a fervently Christian land. But I don’t think we are anywhere remotely near “fervent,” as a nation. And I am certainly not troubled by ANY of the Christian symbolism that gets the loathsome ACLU so worked up. If anything is a threat to non-Christians in this country, it is the aggressive and obnoxious drive to DE-Christianize it.)
I read the series of articles from the Canadian press that was posted here a while back on that subject.
There is just one thing about these victims of French anti-Semitism that got up my nose a bit. Most of them were heading for Israel or Montreal with a few going to Miami. Several quotes had them desperate to excape the ugly anti-Semitism in France but unable to bear the thought of coming to a vulgar, violent place like the U.S.! [paraphrased from vague recollection of the words but clear recollection of the attitude]
Actually, it kinda makes me laugh. They are French, after all!
Native French non-Jews are attacked every day but so dehumanized and atomized are they that such attacks are not merely never mentioned but it is dangerously close to a crime to point them out.
Sounds like this should be talked about around the world. More than a cartoon.
Amen. Right here in the US of A.
doesn't say, but my guess is yes.
I can't read this article without thinking that The New York Times bears some responsibility for this persecution. They helped set it up with their sanctimonious multiculturalism, their anti-Christian bias, their support of Chirac against Bush, and their pro-immigration policies.

It's incredible that even in a post 9/11 world, the Leftists continue down this path of deChristianizing the U.S., without a clue that they are literally destroying their own future in the process.
A handfull of people have driven this insanity over the past 35 plus years, pushing whatever buttons they think will work with each group they infiltrate. Just because it sounds like a conspiracy theory doesn't mean it can't be true.
"Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon has urged all French Jews to move to Israel immediately to escape anti-Semitism. "

Le Pen is siding with the Muslims against the Jews.

I am not sure, maybe now. But he was the main opponent of Muslim immigration years ago when it was a good time to stop it.
French Jewry seems to have fallen back into minimization and outright denial-- They seem to look down on the Islamic threat as if "it can't happen here, we French are beyond all that." More Jews immigrate to France than leave France currently, as if it were a safe harbor for them. It puzzles me.
I'd welcome them in a minute to the US. They would raise our average IQ and diminish France's.
I did not know that...thanks for the post. Wow...
