Summary
French President Emmanuel Macron sounded the alarm on a troubling resurgence of antisemitism, speaking at the unveiling of a statue for Captain Alfred Dreyfus — a Jewish officer wrongfully convicted of treason in the late 1800s, whose exoneration became a symbol of justice against deep-seated prejudice. Just hours before, authorities evacuated 300 people in Sarcelles after discovering a military-grade weapon near a synagogue, sparking fears of terrorism amid rising hate incidents across France. With the largest Jewish population in Europe, France is grappling with a spike in antisemitic attacks fueled by global tensions, including the Gaza conflict. Macron warned that antisemitism never truly disappears, urging vigilance and unity. He declared July 12 a national day to honor Dreyfus’s innocence, a poignant moment underscored by the presence of Dreyfus’s 99-year-old grandson, who mourned the return of hatred while celebrating his grandfather’s legacy.
