US House of Representatives Approves Resolution Against Anti-Semitism in Europe

The U.S. House of Representatives has unanimously approved a resolution urging European governments to curb an increase of anti-Semitism in their countries.

The non-binding resolution, which passed 412-0, cited a significant rise in anti-Semitic attacks on Jewish institutions and people in Europe over the past 18 months. The House attributed the rise in attacks to heightened Israeli-Palestinian violence.

The House said European governments should take all necessary steps to protect the safety and well-being of their Jewish communities.

In April, 99 U.S. Senators signed a letter to President Bush urging him to take a forceful stand with other world leaders against anti-Jewish actions and rhetoric.
