    The article, “French Jews struggle with an identity dilemma as violence increases”, claims that French Jews are being targeted by ISIS. The Jews don’t know if they should wear skullcaps in public because it could potentially cause them to be a target. A skullcap proclaims their religion, and is meant to remind the wearer of God’s presence over him. I think that Jews should be allowed to wear kippas (skullcaps) because they would still be attacked for any other reason that expresses that they are Jewish. The kippas aren 't really offensive and they don 't affect anyone.
