Bosnia: Muslim attacks Jewish leader with weighted chain as leader was being interviewed about

Status of Jews in Bosnia: not very good, obviously. But…but…the Muslims in Bosnia are all moderates, and anyone who doesn’t think so is a racist, greasy Islamophobe! “If he was attacked because he is Jewish and because as such he is present in our media, just because he is doing his job, then it would be a very bad sign both for Sarajevo and for Bosnia and Herzegovina.” You can say that again.

“Arrest made in attack on Bosnian Jewish leader,” JTA, April 6, 2015

(JTA) — A man was arrested in connection with the attack on Bosnian Jewish leader Eli Tauber.

Tauber, an adviser on culture and religious affairs for the Jewish Community of Bosnia and Herzegovina, was attacked by a man wielding a weighted chain at a cafe in central Sarajevo. Many witnessed the attack.

The attack, which was widely reported in the Bosnian media, occurred on March 21 while journalists from National Geographic magazine were interviewing Tauber about the status of Jews in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

No motive has been determined, but the attack has received high-profile coverage by the local media. Some fear that Tauber, who recently established a foundation to promote Jewish culture in Bosnia and Herzegovina. was attacked because he is a prominent member of the Jewish community.

Do we really need to keep wasting space with this type of nonsense?

I spent some time in Sarajevo last year. It’s an interesting place. Half Muslim, half Christian, with a smattering of Jews.

Very much influenced by the early 90s war, in which the Christian Serbs were the agressors, and had the city under siege.

You could still see the physical impact of the early 90s war everywhere, although the city is renewing.

The strangest thing to me was the idea that ethnic Serbians who committed war atrocities were living, unidentified and unpunished, in the Serb neighborhoods in the midst of the cities.

“Should have let the Serbs finish the job.”

Bingo, right you are. There will be nothing but turmoil in a country half Serb and half Muslim, with a smattering of Jews. Nothing good will come of it.
