President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer made headlines last week when he floated the possibility of the administration granting asylum to Jews in the UK. While there are many other European countries where Jews increasingly feel unsafe, Spain, the site of a disturbing antisemitic attack on Jewish graves this weekend, should be at the top of the list.
The Times of Israel reported that Trump’s lawyer, Robert Garson, a Jew from England, got the asylum idea after the 2025 Manchester synagogue terror attack. “I thought: Jews are being persecuted in the United Kingdom,” Garson said.
An antisemitic act that is a strong predictor of future danger in a community is cemetery desecration. In Manchester, for example, attackers defaced 100 graves in 2005 at a Jewish cemetery in the heart of the city’s Orthodox community. In a report on another attack on a Jewish cemetery in London a week later, The Guardian said it was the 117th attack on a Jewish cemetery in 15 years. Unfortunately, it wasn’t the last. In 2014, vandals attacked another Jewish cemetery in Manchester, covering it with anti-Semitic graffiti and swastikas. In 2016, attackers smashed 14 headstones at the same cemetery.
Against the backdrop of such attacks on Jewish cemeteries, Jewish groups are condemning the attack on the Jewish section of Les Corts graveyard in Barcelona this past weekend. Over 20 graves were desecrated.

Also. the UK, France, and The Netherlands....
I didn’t expect that.
Nobody expects that.
Spanish speakers right? Venezuela could use them. Bood for business.
Nobody ever does.
Why can’t they seek asylum in Israel?
I thought Israel was the Homeland for all Jews?
I hear there’s a shortage of comfy chairs.
Spain has an established Jew hatred since the Inquisition. Torqamada is alive and well.
In England, it goes even further back.
Gov. Shapiro is not asking it to be done.
Sen. Schumer isn’t asking it to be done.
I’ve seen no signs such as “Free Spanish Jewry”.
Yes, to Israel.
We have enough refugees, they would be better off in a Spanish speaking country anyways
Is it Christians? Or is it moslems?
How come they don’t go to Israel?
I would think they would prefer to go to Israel. Seventy percent of Jews are Democrats. We don’t need anymore voters like that.
I thought there was a country run by Jews where persecuted Jews could go if they wanted to leave the country they are in ?
when they get done with their ethnic clean up they will even have a bunch more land to provide them.
I read some article today about how whole communities of Jews in New York are living off our taxes.
It has been going on for a long time, and we have known about it.
Israel has all set up to welcome any that arrive
