You would think that after a brutal massacre at the Charlie Hebdo offices in France, anti-Semites (those who hate Jews and want to eradicate them from Europe or the entire world) would lay low for a little bit. Not so! These "brave" Jew haters took on the Jewish dead who can't fight back from the grave. A few years ago in Toulouse an adherent to Islam shot Jewish children at point blank range in their school. He was hailed a hero after he died in a battle with the police. In 2006, a Muslim gang (The Barbarians) tortured to death a young Jewish man because he was a Jew. They believed all Jews have money to pay ransoms. About 15 members in the gang managed to take on one Jew and eventually left him for dead on the street. The gang's leader, after being convicted of murder, said it was better to live one day as a lion rather a lifetime as a lamb. In the Middle East, ISIS decapitates children in front of their parents because these kids won't renounce Yeshua, Jesus.
The truth is Islamic extremists want to eliminate Jews in Europe. French Jews are making aliyah to Israel in response to terrorism directed at them only because they are Jews and to the astounding rise of anti-Semitism in France. The French government and most of Europe have caved their growing Muslim populations by curtailing the rights of free speech and expression of their citizens that disagree with Islam. They are not protecting their 600,000 Jewish citizens, the 3rd largest Jewish population in the world, as they failed to do when they deported 77,000 Jews to death camps during WW II. (I know this first hand because one of my relatives, who sought refuge in France from her native Ukraine, was deported by the Vichy government to her death.) They are not heeding the warnings of books like "Londonistan" which reveal in great detail the erosion of fairness and civil liberties in Great Britain because of their fear of offending Islam. How will this all play out and what do we face here in the US? Fear of offending others is eroding our civil liberties. This is not a time for citizens to be silent or complacent. Having an opinion and expressing it through speech or publication is critical to maintaining a free society.
