The French were always the most antisemitic of the Europeans, until the previously most tolerant Germans outdid them. While the German government did outdo the Frog government by virtue of running the death camps, it is still true that as a population the French people were at least as enthusiastic about taking action against Jews than the German people, and perhaps more so. The horrid acts against Jews by common Frogs is well documented and a scandal thay try very hard to downplay. While today the Germans have tried to come to grips with their acts, the Frogs go blithely on pretending a resistance that simply did not exist.
In our popular culture the French come off way better than they deserve in WWII. In our movies and television programs about WWII one would come away with the belief that the French "resistance" was some powerful force and that it was a widespread network tirelessly fighting the Germans. Pure hogwash. It was tiny and ineffective. While in the rest of Europe there were active guerilla combat units harassing the Germans the French had no such thing. Indeed- France supplied several hundred thousand men to serve in the Wernacht in French battalions and regiments and the Charlamagne SS regiment fought to the bitter defending Berlin in the final Soviet assault. American airmen were routinely turned in by Frenchmen to the Germans. Escaping POWS didn't meet up with "resistance" as we see in our stupid movies but were always routinely turned in by french civilians.
The French were an active ally of the Germans. They have never dealt with that fact. Indeed- everyone claims to have been in this mythical "resistance". Some french politicans who claimed to have been in the resitance have been exposed as being active collaborators with the Germans! Total white wash.
