Yet Another Vicious Attack on Jews in France By “Youths” (Martian Youths or MUSLIM Youths?); Muslim Groups Who Whined About Obama-Hijab Deal Silent
By Debbie Schlussel
Although we heard plenty of whining from Muslims about post-9/11 backlash, the only backlash that actually occurred was an increase in violence by Muslims on Jews and other non-Muslims. That’s not backlash. That’s a strengthened savage population becoming ever savage.
There have been many such attacks, like the vicious torture murder of Ilan Halimi, a French Jewish teen, by French Muslims. They burned cigarettes on him and cut off his fingers one by one. They also beat him. The latest is a vicious attack on a Jewish teenaged boy in France because he was wearing a yarmulke. He was beaten with metal bars, his skull smashed, and he nearly died. He’s now in a coma in critical condition. We know who did it. They’re called Muslims. But even a stinky Israeli newspaper can’t bring itself to identify them as such. Instead, they’re “youths:
That Was Then . . .
This Is Now . . .
“French Jewish organizations on Sunday condemned an anti-Semitic attack in Paris in which a Jewish teenager was severely beaten by a gang of youths with metal bars. [DS: MUSLIM “YOUTHS.”]
The 17-year-old was wearing a yarmulka when he was attacked in Paris’s multi-ethnic 19th district Saturday evening, according to Ariel Goldmann, vice president of the Representative Council of Jewish Institutions in France.
President Nicolas Sarkozy, who was traveling to Israel for a state visit, issued a statement expressing his “profound indignation” and reaffirmed his “total determination to combat all forms of racism and anti-Semitism.” [DS: Riiiiight. What has he done? Nothing.]
Paris hospital officials said the teenager was in critical condition in intensive care. “There is no doubt that this is an anti-Semitic act,” said Goldmann, who said the teenager was in a coma. “I call on authorities to do everything possible to arrest those responsible,” he said.
Police said they had detained five youths in connection with the beating.Sammy Gholzan, from the Bureau for Vigilance on Anti-Semitism, said a group of six or seven youths attacked the teenager with metal bars and “smashed his skull.” He said the young man was a member of the local Lubavitch community. [DS: A group of Chassidic Jews.]
Strangely, CAIR and all the other groups upset last week about Obama allegedly excluding hijab-wearing women from the podium at a rally are silent about this Jewish boy being nearly killed for his religious headgear. I guess it’s all about who is the “victim” and who is the perpetrator. If the victim is not a Muslim and the perpetrator is, then we have nothing to whine about, in their book. No biggie if skull-smashing and comas are involved.
Muslims in Europe are far more anti-Semitic than the native population. They are not pretending they only hate “Zionists.” No – they not only hate Jews, they look for the chance to kill them when they can. And we’re told the biggest threat on the planet today is “Islamophobia?” Puhleeaze… its more like “Judeophobia.” But don’t hold your breath waiting for that to make it onto the international agenda. After all, as in centuries past, the Jew remains fair game for whatever animus those who hate him want to take out on him and far from having disappeared for good, anti-Semitism is back both more virulent and widespread than ever. And a Jewish boy in France ended up nearly paying the price with his life.
