No comments about the French Jewish women promoting aliyah from France?

Yes, I know some hold by Kol Isha. I hold it's a chumrah that I don't hold by.

Are there any Jews left in France? I heard they virtually all made Aliyah this year.

WHAT?! Where would you hear this? There are over half a million jews in France! It is the 3rd largest Jewish country in the world. A large majority though from a survey said they want to leave. I have a French Jewish friend who says he feels safe there but some are wanting to leave. French law does not allow surveys to ethnically or nationally identify people. However, this will most likely cause France to be overran by Muslims and when antisemitism does peak there may be no way out.

You feel safe if you aren't visibly Jewish. The rich religious Jews left.

France leads the entire world in Aliyah.... This last year saw over 4,000 Jews leave France...

France for the first time has become the country with the highest numbers of aliyah (immigration to Israel), according to the French office of the Jewish Agency for Israel on Friday.

"France is today the leading country for Jewish emigration to Israel. It has never been before," said Ariel Kandel, who heads the French office of the agency.

Kandel cited figures from the Israeli Ministry of Immigrant Absorption showing that, as of August 31, a total of 4,566 Jews had left France for Israel this year.

The figure well outpaced Ukraine, which came in at second with 3,252 immigrants. Ukraine has been the site of great unrest since tensions flared in May, with violence often targeting the local Jewish community.

Coming in third was Russia with 2,632 new immigrants, and the United States at 2,213.

No, there is a far larger number of ethnic Jews in Russia than in France.

Also the French Jews are mainly not Ashkenazi (although some in the video are).

They are mainly Mizrahi Jews, from North Africa.

But this is still a tiny number.

If every year that many Jews immigrated to Israel from france. It would take about 120 years for them to all immigrate,
