^^ this!

To the uninformed: While now compensations were extented to a number of jewish people, the compensations are not exclusive to Jews.

Maybe we could also talk about the compensation of the victims of the Algerian war or about the Algerians who were murdered by the French police at a demonstration in Paris. Or the question how long it took for the French to accept they screwed up there....
Or would this topic be too insensitive, since as a result of the Algerian adventure was that it brought many jewish refugees to France?
