I call all the jews in Europe to make Ali'a to Israel! Get out of that murderous land of evil, where the ashes of 6 million of our brothers are burried there.
The French jews (a community of 600,000 jews) are now in fast progress of doing ali'a to Israel, especially in recent years, because of the sharp raise in anti-simitism, and its about the time for all the Europian jews to do so.
Come back to your only true home; to the promissed land!
Great home page!
I completely agree with you. I am so lucky my family had the sense to get out of Europe before the Holocaust. I can't imagine why Jews choose to stay there after all of that.

Synagogue worker from U.K. shot to death in Antwerp
By The Associated Press
BRUSSELS - A British secretary to a rabbi in Antwerp was shot in the head early Thursday and died about 14 hours later in a hospital, the prosecutor's office said.
Spokeswoman Dominique Reniers said the man was shot once in front of his home in Antwerp's Jewish neighborhood. "We do not exclude any motive, but so far there are no indications that the motive was racist or extremist," she said.
Police were looking for witnesses to the shooting of Moshe Naeh, a 24-year-old Orthodox Jew and a father of five.
Yehuda Ceitlin, a local aide of Israel's Zaka rescue services, said that, though racial harassment had increased in recent years in Antwerp, it was the first shooting of a Jewish victim in a long time.
"It caught everyone by surprise," he said. Antwerp, some 50 kilometers north of the capital, has one of the biggest Orthodox Jewish neighborhoods in western Europe.
Reniers called the victim a "devout young man" who was shot once from close range. He slumped onto the road, where he was discovered by passers-by who initially thought he was a traffic victim.
There have been a series of incidents involving physical attacks and
intimidation of Jews in the city this year, often blamed on youths from the large Arab immigrant community.
In June, a 16-year-old Jewish student nearly died after being stabbed outside his school. Days later, a 43-year-old Jewish man was beaten unconscious.
Antwerp, Belgium's second city and a major seaport, boasts a large immigrant population, with some 10 percent of its 500,000 inhabitants of North African descent. The city is also home to a 17,000-strong Jewish community, many of whom are ultra-Orthodox.
The leader of Belgium's Jewish community, Dr. Joseph Wybran, was shot to death in Brussels in 1989, and four young people were injured in 1982 when gunmen opened fire on a Brussels synagogue. Both attacks were blamed on Palestinian groups.
In 2002, 18 shots were fired into the facade of a synagogue in the southern city of Charleroi without causing injury.
___________________________________________________________ I bet it was done by a mouslim. I wonder why am I so sure about this.
The ROP strikes again.
Yes, I'm sure it was Muslim "extremists."
But given their universal presence, I'm beginning to wonder if "not all Muslims are extremists" like "not all Germans were Nazis." The masses provide the power base, and you can't defeat the extremists without defeating their supporters. Mass expulsion from western countries might be the best course. I don't know...
Here, in Herrlisheim, eastern France, with UN, Sorbonne and Chiraq approval,
French-Nazi and Islamic-Nazi signs reading 'Jews out' and swastikas are painted at the entrance of a Jewish cemetery.
The Jews there need to defend themselves...WHATEVER it takes or HOWEVER it's done!
Maybe they are waiting for a second Holocaust or perhaps to sign from god?
The "sign" came in 1939 (In the Holocaust), and then again in May, 1948 (The birth of the Jewish State).
Jews wake up!
Long Island?
The answer for those jews is to come to Israel!
There is no better answer for that than to stay united.
But given their universal presence, I'm beginning to wonder if "not all Muslims are extremists" like "not all Germans were Nazis."

You nailed it! It may be the ONLY course. You're not gonna find "radical muslims" hanging out at the local church, synagogue, or other religeous building. They hide among the masses of their own kind.
I don't understand why that is so difficult for so many to grasp. For the same reason that a criminal doesn't go down to the local police station to hang around the water cooler, the "bad"/"radical" muslims hang out in comfort among their own while the "non-radical" ones have dopey looks on their faces as if they're shocked that something happened.
It would appear that the world, including the U.S., is going to have to learn the lessons the hard way. Ironic.
It's also too late and not going to happen.
At this point you just hope it isn't you and your kids and take whatever precautions that you can.
Actually there was a borscht belt comedian who once said "Before I die, I would like to go to the Promised Land.....Miami Beach! Seriously, Jews need to leave the graveyards of Old Europe.
Tougher laws against Islamic radicalism could be a good start.
Most distressing news.
