No, colonial debts in African countries mean nothing to them. They take their jewish seriously because they are white and the genocide happened in Europe.

Don't forget fascism is nothing more than colonialism done in europe. Every single European country did it, but when it was done to them, it became a real problem...

In my opinion it's not the guilt of the Holocaust that is the primary motivator for the support for Israel. Rather it's about what role Israel plays in the preservation of western (mostly American) hegemony in the Middle East. It's currently a nexus for western aggression against so many countries that are not allied with them (Syria, Yemen, Lebanon, etc.). Not to say that French foreign policy is not racist.
