Belgian Anti-Semitism Leads to More Aliyah
inn ^ | 1/14/11 | Elad Benari

Posted on 01/14/2011 8:48:08 AM PST by Nachum

According to figures released by the Jewish Agency and published this past week on the FightHatred.com website, in 2010 there was an increase of 63 percent in the number of Belgian Jews who made aliyah to Israel. Two hundred and fifty Belgian Jews chose to make Israel their home in 2010, compared to 152 in 2009.

The report cites increasingly open anti-Semitism in recent years and the rise of violent attacks against members of the community, especially its highly-visible hareidi religious members, as causes for the sharp rise in the numbers of individuals making aliyah.

There are 40,000 Jews in Belgium today, about half of whom are members of the Jewish community of Antwerp, which is famous for its involvement in making the city a leading global center of the diamond trade, but at the same time has increasingly been under threat in recent years.

You know, the Jews gained their influence the hard way - by creating and using their wealth.

The MoHamHeads gain their influence by sheer numbers and the sword.

The Belgians will be crying for the day when the evyl Jooooz dominated their markets.

Belgium is absolutely awash with Muslims, Brussels especially, which has the largest Muslim population of any city .... in the world! They also made the mistake of bringing in especially selected Africans by the ton from their doomed colonies. The idea was to educate these smart guys and gals and send them back to run the newly independent hellholes.

Ha! Faulty thinking! Now they won't leave and they number in the gazillions. In fact, except for Hercule Poirot, the Belgians could go extinct. Oh well, perhaps these new "Belgians" can be trained to make chocolate and beer?

If Jews are going to abandon Europe i wish they would come to America. I realize a good percentage of them vote D, but after seeing what unbridled Socialism and wimpy leftists have done to Europe maybe they will come to their senses.

The article only talks of the Jews who have run to Israel. You can bet there are greater numbers who are trying to come here. I know of good numbers of French Jews here now, who ran from France.

Sure is. I seen it in a movie, "The Red Walloon."

Worst frickin' drivers on the planet. A Portuguee or a pesero from Paseo de la Reforma would win the Belgian Safe Driver's Award, no contest.

That is not entirely true - Brussels Moslim population is 256,000 - Mecca on the other hand is over a million.

LOL. Not quite... BUT they are extremely agressive, street crime is out of control. On the upside, I've seen a number of reports in the recent past that they don't shy away from also attacking the eurocrats in the EU administration part of the city. That, I have no problem with.

Wrong (1) it's 512,000. Half the Muslims, being women, are in strict purdah, lest an infidel gaze upon their alleged charms. (Muslims are like mice. For everyone you spot, etc. etc.)

Wrong (2) Mecca only hits a million during Spring Break

Agreed, Muslims are very agressive as they are anywhere in the world. I read several European Newspapers such as Der Spiegel, Austrian Time, BCC ect... and many many people in Europe are against the eurocrats, for a wide variety of reasons.

It is difficult for a Western European to immigrate to America, unless it is for family reunification.

Beer is definitely a no-no for MoHamHeads.

Chocolate is probably ok with them.

Belgium is become Belgistan.

Soon, the MoHamHeads will be blowing themselves up in supermarkets until they take over the government and reduce the indiginous population to slave status or worse.

Do not attempt to obfuscate this issue with facts.

My Imam and I were discussing these points over a frosty O’Doul’s just the other day. Theologically speaking, if Mohammed (May Peace Be Upon Him) had had Belgian chocolate, his last wife might have been 8 years old, instead of 9.

LOL!

“C’mere, little girl. I have a special present for you!”

MoHamHead sure knew how to score with the little girls.

Filthy old man.

I think he bought-off her parents, or extorted them with their lives.
