Torture-Slaying Raises Fear of Anti-Semitic Resurgence
San Francisco Chronicle ^ | February 26, 2006 | Elizabeth Bryant

Ris-Orangis, France -- Flanked by a Baptist church and a Muslim cultural center, the slate-gray synagogue in this Paris suburb is a fragile beacon of religious tolerance. A poster hangs outside, announcing an interfaith concert. The unofficial headquarters of a 2-year-old Jewish-Muslim friendship association is located inside.

But among Jews in Ris-Orangis and elsewhere in France, tolerance is a scarce commodity these days.

Ever since a 23-year-old Jew named Ilan Halimi was dumped -- stabbed, handcuffed, naked and dying -- near a railway line outside Paris on Feb. 13, many Jews say anti-Semitism is resurging in France.

"The Jewish community today is experiencing a time of fear," said Michel Serfaty, rabbi of the conservative Ris-Orangis synagogue. "Without doubt, this assassination will make some Jews conclude they have no reason to stay in France -- that they must leave, because France is Islamicizing."

Anti-Semitism is always just under the surface in Europe, this time it's just the Islamist's turn to bring it back up.

This is so sad.

When are we all going to ever wake up to this threat? It needs to be stopped with a strong message and if expelling Muslims or executing them so be it.

The world that contains non-Muslims is shrinking and we all just stand there and say oh-my.

If it were not for the new media, the internet, none of us would know what was going on because the MSM for some STUPID reason hides that part of the news.

If I were a French Jew, I'd pack up and leave.

No resurgence in Europe, it has always been there. Just kept quiet for politically correct reasons.

I posted this earlier this morning but had to leave before I could see an answer. Does anybody know if the MSM is covering this?

Sorry, I meant executing those that murder. Was upset after reading the article.

The girl who lured him wasn't Muslim - she was a French woman who had been hired by the Muslim gang to entrap him. I would imagine she was probably a prostitute and thought they were just going to rob him or some such thing.

There were two other girls, one of them Arab and one African, IIRC, who had also been hired to set up dates with these men and lure them off to be kidnapped.

Anti-Semitism is always just under the surface in Europe, this time it's
just the Islamist's turn to bring it back up.


The Nazis had an assist from The Grand Mufti; today the anti-Semites
amongst the French can stand by and let a whole imported army of Islamics
just do what Islamics do.

Here's a good read on the work of The Grand Mufti:
Chapter Six (pp.127-145) is especially good; it's titled:
"Hitler's Mufti: Muslim Anti-Semitism And The Continuing Islamic
War Against The Jews"


"The Myth Of Hitler's Pope by David G. Dalin


After reading that chapter, I wondered how the Islamics were
so slighted for their vigourous assistance to the Nazis in the
history classes I took.
LOL! Maybe the Jews were responsible for obscuring the WWII role
of the Islamics!

Here is a link to a site that has an abridged version of "Hitlers Pope", for those who might want to see what the above book's creation was in response to:
