We just should not give it more relevance than it deserves. The odds of a Jewish person being killed by a white nationalist are as close to zero as they can possibly be. It is so rare that it makes national news whenever it happens.
Good post anti semitism has been roaring back across the west, showing it’s ugly head around throughout the world some places worse than others. It’s a huge huge issue in France.
I pulled this from a National Geographic article.
“Facing record levels of anti-Semitism many French Jews are joining an exodus to Israel. A third of all the French Jews who’ve emigrated to Israel since its establishment in 1948 have done so in the last 10 years, according to data from the Jewish Agency.”
“Nearly 90 percent of French Jewish students said they have experienced anti-Semitic abuse on campus,”
90% think of that. Just in the last year anti semitism attacks rose 74% in France and 60% in Germany. It’s a huge issue and one of the reasons Jeremy Corbyns Labour Party we’re wiped out a few weeks ago in the British elections. In Malmö Sweden it’s beyond an issue and most of the Jews left for their safety.
I thought this was a powerful article on the current situation with Western European Jews, let’s hope it doesn’t reach that here.
You are correct. I did not find the stats to numerically support my premise. I will concede your point. I deleted the original statement. My apologies.
The last three years have shown there are people arrogant and ignorant enough to believe that criticism of their politics is motivated by a hatred of their patriotism. It’s absurdly histrionic.
