After the terrorist attack outside a Jewish synagogue in Copenhagen, Denmark, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is calling for Jews to move to Israel.
“Israel is your home. We are preparing and calling for the absorption of mass immigration from Europe,” Netanyahu said in a statement. Netanyahu made a similar statement to French Jews after the Charlie Hebdo and kosher deli attacks.
“Extremist Islamic terrorism has struck Europe again… Jews have been murdered again on European soil only because they were Jews,” Netanyahu said in the statement. “To the Jews of Europe and to the Jews of the world I say that Israel is waiting for you with open arms.”
Israel is working on a $45 million plan to “encourage he absorption of immigrants from France, Belgium and Ukraine.”
Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman sent his condolences to his Danish counterpart saying Israel “appreciates Denmark’s cooperation in maintaining the security of Israelis and Jews in Denmark.”
