Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met on Monday with French Prime Minister Manuel Valls to discuss the French initiative to restart the stalled Israel-Palestinian negotiations, which Israel has repeatedly rejected.
France's Socialist Prime Minister Manual Valls says he understands French Jews' fear amid heightened religious tension in the country after attacks by Islamic extremists in Paris last year.
As more French Jews are making their new homes in Israel, Prime Minister Manuel Valls lamented the emigration of Jews and his country's changed society, irrevocably altered by Islamic terror.
Where should Jews call home? Upset at Netanyahu for calling on Jews abroad to "come home," some European leaders have countered with their own call for Jews to remain.
Israeli leaders joined one-million-strong Paris rally in support of "renewed struggle against the Islamic terrorism that is threatening all of humanity.”
French PM Manuel Valls believes French Jewry should remain and vows to fight for their future, but Israeli leaders call on European Jews to move to Israel. Hundreds of French Jews attended an aliyah fair on Sunday.
