– Jewish group demands renaming French village called ‘Death to Jews’ (RT, Aug 12, 2014):
Expressing its shock and outrage after discovering that a tiny French village is still bearing a medieval name La Mort aux Juifs or ‘Death to Jews’, a Jewish group, the Simon Wiesenthal Center, has urged the French interior minister to rename it.
The Simon Wiesenthal Centre’s director of international affairs, Shimon Samuels, wrote to the French interior Bernard Cazeneuve, saying he was “shocked to discover the existence of a village in France officially called ‘Death to Jews’. It is extremely shocking that this name has slipped under the radar in the 70 years that have passed since France was liberated from Nazism and the (pro-Nazi) Vichy regime.”
However, the deputy mayor of the village of Courtemaux, which has jurisdiction over the hamlet La Mort aux Juifs, 100 kilometers to the south of Paris, is not convinced.
“It’s ridiculous. This name has always existed. No one has anything against the Jews, of course. It doesn’t surprise me that this is coming up again,” Marie-Elizabeth Secretand said, as quoted by AFP.
“Why change a name that goes back to the Middle Ages or even further? We should respect these old names. A previous municipal council, at least 20 years ago, already refused to change the name of this hamlet, which consists of a farm and two houses,” she added.
…
I think we should hold a competition in GAZA for suggestions for an alternative name.
The prize to be ‘free passage for all Palestinians’.
Why don’t you talk to the Egyptians. They also have a border with Gaza.
Once again, disproportionate representation brings unreasonable pressure to dumb down…

More evidence of the disproportionate representation. When will America wake up?
I fear apathy will enable israel’s founders to destroy America before the yanks realise they’ve been royally screwed.
