France's umbrella group of French Jewish communities, CRIF, today (November 14, 2015) called for "merciless war" against radical Islam, according to the JTA (Jewish Telegraphic Agency) website.
CRIF's unusually harsh-worded statement followed news that at least 129 people were killed last night in a series of terrorist attacks in Paris and its northern suburb of Saint-Denis, which French President Francois Hollande said were an "act of war" committed by the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS).
"The global war against the monstrosity of jihadist fanaticism must become an absolute priority of democratic nations," CRIF wrote in a series of messages on Twitter.
It added: "We must fight it [jihadist fanaticism] without mercy, without relenting, in order to vanquish it."
