Interesting. I'm checking out some stats on anti-Semitic hate crimes in the U.S. from the Anti-Defamation League. It turns out that if the Paris area (pop. 11,174,743) was a U.S. state, its 309 hate crimes would make it the second most anti-Semitic state in the Union. New York (pop. 19,011,378) would be first with 481, while California (pop. 34,501,130) is a distant third with 257.
Also, 60% of all anti-Semitic incidents in the U.S. take place in the Northeast. Never knew it was so skewed.

that's because most of the jews live in those areas....
That's what I thought at first, but Florida (pop. 16,396,515) only has 81 hate crimes despite having a large Jewish population. I think it still plays a factor, but it can't explain all of the data, IMO.KH FOR OWNER!

On a side note, how ridiculous is it that the U.S. Census Bureau has extensive information on the computer ownership and use by the U.S. population, but says nothing about the religion practiced by said population? ****ing atheists are ruining my research.

The article is simply more hysterical French-bashing, with the Jews as the convenient pawn.Comment

Hawaii was the only state that did not participate in reporting hate crime to the FBI; Alabama participated but reported zero hate crime for the entire year.“Now we declare… that the law-making power or the first and real effective source of law is the people or the body of citizens or the prevailing part of the people according to its election or its will expressed in general convention by vote, commanding or deciding that something be done or omitted in regard to human civil acts under penalty or temporal punishment….†(Marsilius of Padua, „Defensor Pacis“, AD 1324)Comment

Well from a quick google search, I found:Originally posted by Drake Tungsten
When's the last time a synagogue was burnt down in America?
May 27, 2000 Pennsylvania Arson destroys a synagogue in Philadelphia
Jan. 1, 2001 Nevada Arson damages the same Reno synagogue that racist Skinheads tried to firebomb in November 1999.
I'm sure there are more. Unfortunately, it would be strange if this thing did not happen.“Now we declare… that the law-making power or the first and real effective source of law is the people or the body of citizens or the prevailing part of the people according to its election or its will expressed in general convention by vote, commanding or deciding that something be done or omitted in regard to human civil acts under penalty or temporal punishment….†(Marsilius of Padua, „Defensor Pacis“, AD 1324)Comment

All this is a direct consequence of the Israero-Palestinian conflict. It does not reflect the old concept of anti-semitism and should rather be named anti-israelism, which is a totally different thing (political and not racial).Statistical anomaly.

My stats are from the Anti-Defamation League, not the FBI. Are you saying you don't trust a Jewish defense league to report hate crimes against Jews?
BTW, the ADL lists Alabama as having 1 anti-Semitic event in 2000. Enlightened South indeed.

If you're anti-Israeli and not anti-semetic, why would you attack random Jews on the street as described in the article?Originally posted by DAVOUT

If this is really "anti-Israelism", then why are the targets of these attacks French Jews who have no connection with Israel?KH FOR OWNER!
