More than 7,000 French Jews have signed a petition asking for political asylum in the United States because of anti-Semitism in France.
Exsqueeze me? Political asylum here?? Sorry, we're full up - try Israel.
After all, that WAS part of the purpose of forming that country now wasn't it. To have a homeland to escape anti-Semitism world wide.

Should Catholics seeking political asylum be forced to move to the Vatican then?
I'd love the congress to officially accommodate these Jews, if only to show up Bush for uselessly sucking in thousands more hostile Saudi sandfleas.
But you have a really good point there.
Why the animosity towards Israel and Jews in general?
Furthermore, I think we SHOULD offer favored asylum/immigration status on those peoples who will love and join in our republic/democracy.
For the last 50 years we've been bringing in third world immigrants who not only HATE us, but want to change our way of life to the type of life they left in the third world.
Not all, but way too many for good health.
