It is sad that in the 21st century the evil of anti-Semitism should arise once again to force Jews to leave their adopted land, this time France. But now something is different. After centuries of forced moves from one unwelcoming land to another, Zionism has provided a safe harbor for Jews in Israel. It was the Zionist movement that gave Jews a life-altering and life-saving option of a Jewish homeland. It seems so straightforward that French Jews can leave the horror of anti-Semitism and move to Israel, but this is the first time in millennia that that option is open to fleeing Jews - thanks to Zionism.
