The graffitist didn't even get the swastika right.

If France wants to coddle its vermin, its productive citizens will flee and leave the bitter residue behind. With the country at an all-time low in productivity, that could very well signal its descent into Third World status.

"Soon it will not be just the French Jews leaving, but any French who can get out while the getting's good."

It is said 180 000 french people leave each year.Mainly business people, academic....
Those 180 000 are being replaced by illigal immigrants.
If you visit the south of France you would think you are in Algeria.
It is not only France in decline ,it is the whole of Europe..

Playing a little "Rhapsody In Blue"?

I loved his music in "An American In Paris". Watching Gene Kelly dance to it was wonderful.

One of my all time favorite feel good movies.

If I was uprooting my family from a "left-wing" paradise..not sure if I'd want to move to another in the making.

"Islamic fascists forbid the Arts. "

Yeah, they're not exactly what you would call a "fun group of people" are they.

[Ashamed Canadian]

France's loss, our gain.

[PianoMan]

"Jappy"???

Jewish American Princess, if I'm not mistaken. Don't see how it applies to France obviously.

Is this article part of the solution or part of the problem? As usual it soft pedals the causes and the dangers, blaming the "root cause" of poverty. How many more decades before more people wake up.

"There are six million Muslims,"

What an ironic and prophetic number that is.

[combat_boots]

"Islamic fascists forbid the Arts. "

I am somewhat concerned for the great masterworks in France, both architectural and of other kinds.

How perplexing--to think an entire country would throw away its national identity. Note to self.

We have a good chance of a Conservative Government in our next election, let's keep our fingers crossed.

[GMMAC]

Montreal-based, current Liberal Injustice Minister Irwin Cotler
(seen here with his radical feminist predecessor Anne McLellan)
through his promotion of the homosexual agenda, appointment of
open gender-bigots to the SCC, bleeding-hearted pandering toward criminals, past hate-mongering before the Deschenes Commission
and general on-going, arrogant left-wing, rabid intolerance toward
all who disagree with him, has done more to provoke antisemitism
than any one individual in Canada's history.

Let's hope new arrivals won't add to Cotler's existing power-base
which would be akin to giving Al Qaida more explosives!

The French have a terrible track record protecting it's Jewish citizens.

France's citizens have a terrible track record protecting France. Next time, let the Germans Keep it!

[Noachian]

French Jews are leaving the country in ever-growing numbers...

If the Jews are leaving France then France is having a "brain-drain", and who will fill that gap? Muslims?

If French Jews are fleeing to Canada will that add future voters to the Canadian socialists? Will those French Jews transfer their French socialist values to Canadian politics?

[Nuc1]

Well said. I was getting ready to point this out but you did so quite well. If more proof is needed look to the left wing Jews in Israel and the policies they espouse. One cannot understand it, it is madness.

[QQQQ]

Simple statistics. Look at European countries, who expelled their Jewish population. Most of those countries gone down the drain(intellectually).

[righttackle44]

"Jew-baiting is but one bit of the ethnic disaster occurring in France today, but it is a telling bit: chiefly a case of entrenched European anti-Semitism against Arabs -- who, let's not forget, are Semites, too -- helping kindle a violent anti-Semitism against Jews."

This politically-correct piece of maneuvering may have just produced the stupidest sentence of the 21st Century.

[stocksthatgoup]

No doubt the vast majority of these Jews will vote for Liberals and Democrats

[bboop]

Yes, the beautiful cathedrals/ Western civ things in France. I am concerned too. But it seems like they are not, so much.

It's a left swastika.
