French Prime Minister \u00c9douard Philippe announced \u201ca new plan to combat antisemitism\u201d during a speech at Paris\u2019s Buffault Synagogue.<\/span>
\n Speaking at a ceremony on Monday following the Jewish New Year, Philippe said that the plan, set to be implemented in 2018 to 2020, will be \u201cconceived and developed in close partnership with civil society and obviously [the Jewish community].\u201d<\/span>
\n One of the key objectives, the French premier explained, is to fight online antisemitism. In particular, he added, there is a need to counter hate that has \u201coverrun social media\u201d and which should not remain unpunished.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cA sustainable fight against antisemitism necessarily calls for prevention, through education and culture,\u201d said Philippe.<\/span><\/p>\n

In recent years, France has suffered a wave of Islamist terrorist attacks, including several targeting Jews. Philippe mentioned the kidnap and murder of Ilan Halimi in 2006, the killing of four Jews outside Toulouse\u2019s Ozar Hatorah school in 2012, the attack on the Hyper Casher kosher supermarket in January 2015 and the murder last April of Sarah Halimi in Paris as examples of \u201cthe ultra-violence of Islamist terrorism and barbarism.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhen someone attacks a French citizen because of his background or his beliefs,\u201d Philippe continued, \u201che attacks France and what it holds most precious: its way of life, its values, its heritage… And when you insult a French citizen for these reasons, you insult the memory of those who have given their life to ensure that these values prevail.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Philippe emphasized that the \u201cinsufficient decrease\u201d in \u201cshameful, cowardly\u201d antisemitism in France does not mean that this dangerous reality has been repaired. \u201cThis reality is the normalization of antisemitism, and of its reinvented form, as President [Emmanuel Macron] said, anti-Zionism.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Chief Rabbi of France Ha\u00efm Korsia, government officials, ambassadors and former prime minister Manuel Valls also attended the event.<\/span><\/p>\n

Philippe quoted from then-prime minister Manuel Valls\u2019s January 2015 speech to the National Assembly following the attack on the Hyper Casher supermarket: \u201cWe cannot permit that, in France, the land of Jewish emancipation two centuries ago, but also that became a place of Jewish suffering 70 years ago, we will hear cries of \u2018Death to Jews\u2019 in our streets.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe awakening of antisemitism is a symptom of a crisis of democracy,\u201d Philippe said.<\/span><\/p>\n

The prime minister also paid tribute to France\u2019s \u201cclosest partner,\u201d Israel. Philippe saluted the 150,000 French citizens living in Israel, describing them as the best ambassadors of his nation\u2019s language and culture. He highlighted next year\u2019s France-Israel Season, a six-month event that will run simultaneously in both countries, as an example of their close cooperation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Extending his best wishes for the new year to the Jewish community, the prime minister looked forward to developing bilateral ties. \u201cWe hold onto this relationship, and we want to deepen it in all ways, economically and culturally,\u201d said Philippe.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cPresident [Macron] has announced his visit to Israel next spring. I would also like to visit next year,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n
