    Hollande recognized France is responsible for deporting Jews

    12:12 23/07/2012 » In the world

    President Francois Hollande visited the site of the largest
    deportation of Jews from Western Europe during the Holocaust, a sign
    that France is finally recognizing that collaboration as well as
    heroism is part of its wartime history, the haaretz.com reports.

    Of all Western European countries, France remains the one where the
    gravest anti-Semitic incidents take place. It is also a country where
    the dominant intelligentsia prefer to find any word other than
    "anti-Semitism" to describe the Jew-hate that remains alive and active
    there. A key object of these anti-Semitism deniers is to devalue,
    downgrade and diminish the detention, deportation and deaths of French
    Jews.

    French President Francois Hollande's decision to speak last week at a
    commemoration of the single worst deportation of Jews in Western
    Europe during World War II is an important step toward addressing
    European anti-Semitism.
