I just watched a CBC documentary on the rising levels of anti-semitism in France and the effects it was having on the Jewish community there. It seems that many French Jews, having roots in France going back centuries, are scared for their surrvival.
The reporter cited incidents like when two school busses which served a primarily Jewish area were firebombed the state would not replace them; the parents had to pay for new ones. (thankfully, no children were inside them at the time)
they said that in the past 5 years nearly 2000 French Jews have left France, mostly for Montreal.
I was just wondering if anyone in or near France could elaborate on any of this
