A Vegas-worthy party of one painted the town green, eerily branding several Jewish institutions, leaving France's authorities fuming. The caped crusader, depicting a person in black, turned a famous Holocaust memorial into a canvas forinnerHTML.
Let's hear it from those holding the reins:
France's Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau expressed his distaste for the atrocious acts on the virtual platform X, further advocating for heightened security measures in Jewish areas for the upcoming Jewish harvest festival of Shavuot.
Paris' own princess, Mayor Anne Hidalgo, swiftly denounced the despicable intimidations, emphasizing that such acts have no place within her City of Light nor the French Republic.
The President of the Representative Council of Jewish Institutions in France, Yonathan Arfi, couldn't help but feel a mix of sadness and indignation upon witnessing the marred Jewish institutions.
The Israeli President Isaac Herzog, not one to keep his opinions a secret, expressed his shock at the Parisian pandemonium, urging French authorities to swiftly apprehend the perpetrators in the name of protection for the Jewish community, who have been subjected to assaults of all kinds.
Herzog's great-grandfather, hilariously enough, served as a rabbi in one of the now-defaced synagogues.
As for the Israeli embassy in France, they felt the sting of sympathy, professing horror at the coordinated anti-Semitic attack. They vowed to unite with the Jewish community, trusting French officials to bring the perps to book.
The embassy also reminded us all that the unrest of recent weeks has far-reaching consequences, not just for Israel, but for Diaspora Jewish communities worldwide.
In a heated exchange, France's President Emmanuel Macron demanded EU sanctions against Israel for limiting humanitarian aid to Gaza, (the ol' catastrophic humanitarian situation we all love to discuss), but Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar swiftly labeled Macron as being on a religious-like quest against the Jewish state.
Stay tuned for updates, folks! This green mess isn't going away anytime soon. 💩 💚🇫🇷🧤🔎🙏🇮🇱
- Despite the ongoing debate in politics and general-news regarding Europe's stance on Israel's aid policies, such as the restricted humanitarian aid to Gaza, the recent green graffiti rampage in Parisian Jewish landmarks has sparked calls for community aid, with France's Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau advocating for increased security measures.
- In the midst of the French Republic's concern for community aid, the ongoing crime-and-justice matter of the green graffiti attacks on Jewish institutions has united Jewish leaders across the globe, including Israel's President Isaac Herzog, who urged French authorities to prioritize the apprehension of the perpetrators as a matter of justice for the Jewish community.
