IDF vets train NY Jewish paramilitaries

ARTICLE SNIPPET: American Jews have felt a false sense of security in the United States, Stern believes, because historically there has been less anti-Semitism than in other countries. But there have been incidents - neo-Nazi terrorist attacks, Arab terrorist attacks. Jews have to be vigilant.
The threat is not from the American people or government, he adds, but from terrorist sleeper cells that want to target Jews. These people are very dangerous and the FBI issues warnings against them very often, he said, citing the FBIs warning, after the killing of Hizbullah operations chief Imad Mughniyeh in Damascus in February, that the Lebanese group might carry out terror attacks on Jewish communities.
The average American is friendly to Jews, but were worried about those individuals on the periphery of society, Stern says.
The group was founded in the summer of 2006 in response to the shooting attack at the Jewish federation of Seattle premises by local Muslim Naveed Haq.
We realized there is a need for this kind of organization, and as Israeli combat veterans living in the US, we have the skills and ability to respond to this, Stern says.
