The Naturei Karta, a group of ultra-Orthodox Jews who oppose the State of Israel on religious grounds, has apologized to France for the Jewish demonstrations in the United States against French Mideast policies. The group has only a few hundred followers here but it also has adherents among Orthodox Jews in the U.S. Its leader, Amram Blau, handed a note of apology to the French Consul General here yesterday.
