#1 What's the point of diplomacy then?

Seems like French diplomats have really fallen down on their game.

It will be interesting to see how they deal with the "migrants" as time goes on.

#2 European rulers been using Jews as scapegoat: to distract & redirect their People discontent for 2000 years. Old habits is hard to break---even when it's no longer safe.

#3 Well, Israel could recognize an Arab state in parts of Marseilles and Paris and elsewhere in what once was France. Apparently French police don't enter some such areas.

#5 Sounds like a good idea. Making them stand on their own two flat wonky inbred feet while waging war on a much more civilised neighbour and seeing their subsidies reduced will be a hoot.

#6 The Frogs have been pulling this stunt for decades. They really do not like Israel.

Well, screw France. Curse those marxist, mooselimb loving anti-semite cowards.

#8 kind of ironic since the French gave the Joooos the nuclear capacity

"Israel benefited from an unusually pro-Israel French government during this time"
