(Jewish Group) Macron addresses Frances Jews amid anti-Semitism concerns
(THIS IS THE JEWISH GROUP! RESPECT!!)PARIS — President Emmanuel Macron is set to address France’s leading Jewish group, amid concerns about a rise in anti-Jewish violence and the possible re-publication of anti-Semitic pamphlets by a renowned writer.
Macron will be the guest of honor at Wednesday’s annual dinner by the group CRIF, whose leaders say they will ask the president about fighting anti-Semitism online and recent attacks on French Jews or Jewish sites.
They also want to call attention to a debate over a plan by prominent publishing house Gallimard to re-publish fiercely anti-Semitic lampoons penned by Louis-Ferdinand Celine in 1937-1941.
