Yet because he is a Jew, he was attacked by a group of other children, mostly Muslim, at the private Catholic school he then attended. WTF??? What a crazy country France is.

There is little difference between the Catholic schools and the state schools in France anymore. The only substantive difference is that the Catholic schools cost money and their students perform better on the national exams.
There are nominally Catholic schools in France nowwhere Muslim prayer services are held weekly and attendance at Mass is optional.
The situation is completely out of hand.

France has sold her soul to the muslims, they have plenty living within their territory. Yes, many confirmations of cases of anti-semitism and since France has contracts with Iraq, that's why they hated us going to war. Now they cannot continue to milk that cow or get their payments - France has become truly evil.

The French were traditionally the most anti-semitic country in Europe. Why do you think the Jewish bankers and the like prospered most in Germany and Italy? They were more welcome there. The French are despicable. I worked with a number of French Jews living in the US in the 80s through various business deals. They were quite proud to be 'French' -- some famous names too -- but they and their families were all here......

a latent anti-Semitism that they say has created an environment in which a new strain of racism can thriveIn islam, racism and hatred have never been latent...its just easier for the French Jews and the French in general and for that matter most of the West, to include the US, to believe this so as not to have to face reality.

at the private Catholic school he then attendedWhere I was growing up, a local Catholic high school routinely had a Jewish kid as tops in his class. Likewise, if I had young children I would send them to Catholic schools vice public schools.

Anti-Semitism is on the rise all over Europe, all over the world I guess. I had some neighbors who did some missionary work in the Ukraine a couple of years ago and came home saying that the anti-Semitism there was just about equal to the pre-WWII days. The new surge of anti-Semitism, as the article states arises from a different segment this time around. The new wave comes from anti-Israel sentiments of the left. The left hates Israel and the US for their capitalistic economic success, their freedom and their adherence to religions which place God above state, while supporting free will.
The left has decided that they can live with Islam because first of all in most Islamic countries, the religion is the state and second of all is the old enemy of my enemy is my friend rule.
