Jean Daniel

Jean Daniel Bensaid (21 July 1920 – 19 February 2020) was an Algerian-born French Jewish journalist and author. He is the founder and executive editor of "Le Nouvel Observateur" weekly. He was born in Blida, Algeria. He is a member of the Saint-Simon Foundation think-tank. 
In "La prison juive: Humeurs et méditations d'un témoin" ("The Jewish Prison"), Daniel argues that prosperous 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.
