DANIEL, Jean was born on July 21, 1920 in Blida, Algeria.
Daniel is a Jewish humanist in the tradition of the French Left. In Louisiana prison juive: Humeurs et méditations d"un témoin (The Jewish Prison), Daniel argues that prosperous, assimilated Jews in the west live in a self-imposed prison made of up of three invisible walls: the idea of the Chosen People, Holocaust remembrance, and support for Israel. "Having trapped themselves inside these walls..," wrote Adam Shatz in describing the book, "they were less able to see themselves clearly, or to appreciate the suffering of others -- particularly the Palestinians living behind the "separation fence."".
