Switzerland: Muslim Protesters Attempt to Storm Synagogue
Arutz Sheva ^ | 20/8/14 | Ari Soffer

Posted on 08/20/2014 2:09:38 AM PDT by Eleutheria5

Muslim anti-Israel demonstrators attempted to force their way into a synagogue in Switzerland, the latest in a string of attacks on synagogues in Europe.

The protest took place on Saturday, during the Jewish Sabbath, in front of the Beth Yaakov, or Grande, Synagogue in Geneva, according to JTA.

The Intercommunity Coordination Against Anti-Semitism and Defamation watchdog organization (CICAD) reported that a Muslim woman wearing a niqab (veil) first attempted to enter the place of worship while waving a PLO flag and holding a placard saying "Every synagogue is an Israeli embassy" on Saturday morning but was prevented from doing so.

The woman then returned that night accompanied by three men, and a second Muslim woman also then attempted to enter the synagogue.

The group told police they were simply exercising their right to protest and promised to return the following Saturday.

CICAD said the incident was the first of its kind since the the start of Operation Protective Edge, and said it set a dangerous precedent.

"With this first public demonstration of hostility towards the Jewish community in Geneva since the beginning of the conflict in Gaza, an unacceptable step was taken," the anti-hate group said.

"Synagogues should not become the new places of expression of hatred against Israel," it added, calling on politicians and supporters of the "Palestinian cause" to condemn such anti-Semitic attacks.

Yeah, good luck with that. Don’t hold your breath.

I guess you don’t know that Christians are Jews by adoption according to the Bible ‘grafted in’ to God’s family.

Switzerland is a gun friendly society where reservists keep their issued automatic rifles at home & shooting clubs can be found in any Swiss village.

Muzzies in der Schweiz are already spastic about the Swiss government outlawing minarets. You know, those towering structures from which muzzies survey their “conquered lands”.

Muzzies invading synagogues? They must assume that Jews in Switzerland don’t have guns. This could turn ugly, as in shots fired kind of ugly.

I have nothing against Jews, it's those damn Zionists I want to kill...

That statement has always been a bunch of BS.

There will never be a shortage of idiots or people who blame Jews for their own inadequacies.

Your life turned out poorly because of your own shortcomings, not because of the evil controllers or Jews. I understand that it is easier for the weak to blame others, though.

They’d have to do the same for Juden just to be even-handed. But Der Schweitz is no longer a place for Jews, because it is becoming overrun with Moose Limbs. But if both leave, that will leave Das Schweitzer with no further opportunity for moral cowardice. They can go back to yodeling and laundering money.

roflmto...My life did not turn out poorly....I am a daughter of the King...the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. In fact I am blessed and well taken care of....you have issues.

Reading Comprehension is NOT one of your strong suites....I am a Christian and I am Jewish by adoption, whereby I cry Abba Father. Maybe you should go back to school and learn how to comprehend what you are reading....certainly you can’t grasp what I am saying.

I grasped one thing.

You said the Jews control the world and are responsible for our bad times.

Did you use those exact words? No, but your meaning was perfectly clear.

You blame others for your problems. Then you try and cloak yourself in religious mumbo jumbo.

Rothschild and Soros are what’s wrong with the world. Right, everything is a conspiracy and the Jews are running the game. Got it.

The above is from your patron saint website.

It tells us that the good people from Gaza are fighting the good fight against evil Israel.

Imagine my surprise to find another thing from you that is anti-Jew or Israel.

You’re in the wrong place, advocating the wrong things. You would be more comfortable at your regular site, Stormfront.

Obviously you don’t realize that articles at certain websites are written by people of different political persuasions, and one article that is truth stands alone.....sheesh.

I get it.

Sometimes a website is a good source. Sometimes it isn’t. The key is which articles YOU agree with.

We are still left with your first post that Jews control everything. That came from you.

Does this mean that only some of the stuff you write is backed up you?

You’re a clown.

Goodbye.

Don’t forget that we are in control of your life.

If you adjust your behavior, there might be a double-wide in your future.

Now you’re a liar. You said you would no longer respond to me.

Add liar to anti-Semite and a blame everything on everyone except yourself attitude.

You’re fleshing out as a stereotypical loser.

Since you are not responding to me once again, I look forward to the next bad character trait you put on display.
