  1. Regarding antisemitism in France: I can't speak to it personally, but my mother's told me the story of the month she spent in high school, going to a French school in 1981. She didn't tell anybody she was Jewish, and the moment they found out, she was the victim of ridicule from the host family and the other students, the hosts complaining that they wanted to host a real American, not a Jew. Antisemitism in France, at least in the early 80's, was a real thing, and very well could have been by the time the Bogdanoffs entered the field, and the line of sight of Flato.

  2.  @javiermesa-martinez8731  For what it's worth, I never said that my mother only experienced antisemitism, only that her host family and some other students treated her like that and thus it's reasonable to say that it was present in France during that time period. I can't speak more to her experience or the extent of it, since that was over 40 years ago and I only know what she told me.
