One would think that given how the french have much less tolerance towards jews than Anglo-Saxons (and given how recent was the Dreyfuss affair...), they would have had cracked-down on Zionists much more than the British...
Then, during World War II, when France was occupied, the nazis would have quite a deterring presence thereā¦
