French Jews Plan to Act
Independently in Election
PARIS (JTA) — The
representative Council of
French Jewish Organiza-
tions (CRIF) announced
that it will take no active
political role in the forth-
coming French elections.
CRIF released a docu-
ment defining the role of
the Jewish community
within the "political
commonwealth" which
stresses the right of indi-
vidual Jews to fight their
political battles, but
stresses th'at "-no one has
the right to claim the
backing of the organized
Jewish community."
This document was re-
leased six weeks before
the forthcoming munici-
pal elections and several
months before the par-
liamentary ones.
The CRIF document re-
calls the community's at-
tachment to Isiael and
warns that "any threat to
the existence of Israel will
–
be regarded by the French
Jewish community as an
attack on its integrity, its
collective 'spirit, its faith,
hope and dignity."
The document also calls
on "the present govern-
ment and all future gov-
ernments to - remain
faithful to France's moral
vocation which should,
not be sacrificed for the
sake of immediate mate-
rial advantages and- in-
terests."
