I have been through (on a bus, thank God) a neighbourhood outside London in which I suspect that Jews would have been welcomed with spitting and worse.
I would not characterise the denizens of this neighbourhood as "English".
Rome has similar neighbourhoods.

I suspect that Jews would have been welcomed with spitting and worse.OK, I'll concede that. Probably the same can be said for some neighborhoods in London and Paris. But we call this outrageous and intolerable, don't we? We don't dismiss it as isolated and unimportant. If contemptuous public assaults on Jews are going to be condemned, the same standard MUST apply in Jerusalem when non-Jews are targeted.
In view of the nastiness on display, I begin to wonder whether certain posters on this thread have a guilty conscience in this respect.
