The current French socialist government has been cracking down on Muslim organizations like crazy. It just extended a state of emergency that it has used to conduct thousands of raids. Mosques and Muslim businesses have been shut down and the civil libertarians are up in arms. All because of the threat of Muslim terrorism.
Yet commenters here continue to insist that the French Left is anti-Semitic. This despite the fact that for the entire history of France going all the way back to the Middle Ages it has been the French Right that has been hostile to Jews.
People here are so invested in right wing politics that they put those politics ahead of the interest of Jews. It is truly a blatant example of assimilation. You can wear a yarmulke and eat kosher but your thinking is that of a goy.
And no, I don’t defend all European Leftists. George Galloway and Jeremy Corbyn are rashaim! You have to look at each country separately.
