Most French Jews who leave, do go to France. This asylum business is more to draw attention to what is happening than to actually ask for asylum. If these 7000 wanted to come to the US, most could simply get a visa and visit. In the article, this moved angered the liberal Jews in France. The percentage of Jews that are leaving France is fairly low compared to the total number of Jews in France.

Having said that, thousands are leaving. Most do happen to go to Israel. The US is the next destination, if they can get the green card. South Florida has a good number of expatriate French Jews. I have two neighbors here in Southern California that also left. They are both "right wing" conservative types, self employed businessmen with good education. Definately not socialists.
