Baruch dayan emet.
A police officer originally said that the murder was not antisemitic because in the mind of the kidnapers Jews=Money. Now, that sounds like classic antisemitism to me. [I am unemployed right now and people do assume tht if you are Jewish you must have money, even many Jews.] The French government now calls it an antisemitic attack.
It seems especially sad to me because North African Muslims attacked a North African Jew. Does anyone know how many Jews from North Africa or North African descent are in France? I think that there may be large.
i’m french and sunday there will be a demonstration for Ilan. That’ s a sad event for us , i think he was tortured because he was jew , all a lot of people are antisemitic here and i’m not surprised. Well North Africa Jew is the most important jewish ethny in France. Please pray for Ilan
