Over the past 60 years?Originally posted by HershOstropoler
"Of course, no Synagogues have been burned in France. Jewish people have no reason to start to look for the exits. Of course not."
Well, let's look at how many jews get killed in acts of antisemitic violence:
EU: 0 (unfortunately 0 just in most years, not all)
US: 0 (unfortunately 0 just in most years, not all)
Israel: 100? 200? (unfortunately over the last years)
I'd say about 20,000 have been killed in Israel over the past 60 years.
I'd say 6 million have been killed in Europe over the past 60 years.

Per year, over the last years.

On what do you base the idea that antisemitism is on the rise?“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

Azazel, It is funny how European leftists like do demonstrate against the US, and Israel. I don't know why that is. Of course there's nothing wrong with peaceful demonstrating, and they are loud minority after all, but I'd like to see the leftist movement protest against suicide bombers, against terrorism, against Saddam Hussein etc. I really don't believe that most of these people are Pro-Saddam etc, but they seem to concentrate on protesting against the US in general and won't make sound against the wrong doings against the US. Maybe they feel that the US is treated sometimes badly, but they won't make a sound. Them to have more credibility they should also make loud statemenst against these too. But I don't know.. I don't belong to that hippie-communist-red-wine-drinking group.. just what I think they think.In da butt.

So you are claiming that they wished to destroy his car to destroy there finger prints? That would again indicate the reason was not robbery but politically or anti-semitically related. A thief would have tried to steal the car while a anti-semite would have tried to kill the rabbi and destroy the evidience; which is what happened.Originally posted by Ozz

I'm thinking we owe Germany a big apology for always siding with the French. We should give the Germans the green light for any future attempt with the proviso that they shut those damn French up, and if they can stop them from making whoopie, all the better.

Well, sure, over the past couple of years, a few hundred have been killed per year. The doesn't change that historically, Israel has been a lot safer. The fact that the holocaust has happened once in Europe is more reason to believe it could happen there again, not less.Originally posted by HershOstropoler
"Over the past 60 years?"
Per year, over the last years.
The number of antisemitic acts (synogogue burnings, grafitting of Jewish gravestones with swastikas, beating up Jews, etc) in Europe, and especially France, is way up last year, to levels unseen since shortly before the Second World War. To me, that suggests that antisemitism is on the rise.On what do you base the idea that antisemitism is on the rise?

Especially in the time between the 1st century BC and 1948.

The nr of attacks in France is undisputably up. I fail to see nrs supporting that for the rest of europe. Also, as I said before, this is only losely related to the level of antisemitic sentiment.“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

so where's the problem in being against the policy of Israeli or US government? Does this automatically mean they're anit-semitic or anti-american?Originally posted by Azazel

I don't have any problems with being sided with the French. France is a great country and I'm sure that the very vast majority of the French will be against any racist
movement in their country....Comment

Stealing cars for joyriding and then torching them is a common practice amongst youths europewide, I find it difficult to believe that you have not heard of this, I find it more likely that you only want to look for an answer that suits your predjudices.Originally posted by Oerdin
