Rishon L’Tzion Rabbi Yitzchak Yosef Shlita, who is currently visiting France, is calling on the French Jewish community to come home to Israel. He clarified his remarks, stating his call is not connected to recent terror attacks or the growth of radical Islam in that country.

Rav Yosef made his remarks during a gathering of the Council of European Rabbonim.

“I call to all of the Jews of France to make aliyah to Israel without any connection to the attack. Until you make aliyah, strengthen your Torah observance for the Torah HaKadosha protects and watches over us against terror attacks”.
