German Jews advised not to wear skullcap

Londoners of all persuasions advised to wear full body armour.

That's right - the Right!  Alternativ für Deutschland (AfD) gets a mention, despite the fact the party itself has Jewish members.

Is it true that the Skullcap was first introduced to hide a geezers bald spot?

Sorry i didnt see this fred.

Why is anti-Semitism on the rise?
Jewish groups have warned that a rise in popularity of far-right groups is fostering anti-Semitism and hatred of other minorities throughout Europe.

Since 2017, the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) has been the country's main opposition party. AfD is openly against immigration but the party denies holding anti-Semitic views.

However, a number of comments from their politicians, including remarks about the Holocaust, have drawn criticism from Jewish groups and other politicians.

Last year, a survey of thousands of European Jews revealed that many were increasingly worried about anti-Semitism.

pure lies.

SV - I never leave home without mine.

Typical how they attempt to deflect blame from the real perpetrators of anti-Semitism.

And so it continues , the slow erosion of of all 'other' religious symbolism .

Err.. well we know that in France and Sweden Jews are fleeing and it's not because of the "indigenous" people attacking them.

"A 2012 poll showed that 18% of the Turks in Germany think of Jews as inferior human beings.[117][118] A similar study found that most of Germany's native born Muslim youth and children of immigrants have antisemitic views.[119]"
And, this is incredible, I never knew about this one, I can't remember THIS on the BBC? According to the article linked above (cited), in 2014 3 "German Palestinians" of the religion of peas tried to BURN DOWN A SYNAGOGUE on the ANNIVERSARY OF KRISTALLNACHT, and weren't sent to Prison! Here remember, a guy was sent to 1 year in prison for leaving bacon sandwiches outside a mosque.

Muslims don't like Jews...but there is a reason for this

The Germans themselves have been accused of anti semitism in the past..ie the holocaust

I assume these far right groups are white????

Oh and look at the chart on the right of that, research done by beilefeld university on the makeup of attackers, citing the research paper of 2017, again:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antisemitism_in_Europe#21st-century_Germany

For assaults, LEFT WING extremists are higher than RIGHT WIN. I repeat LEFT wing people have done more assaults than right wing. And the biggest demographic of all, by a huge margin, is by people a religion to do with small green vegetables often frozen by Birds Eye.

BBC not in a hurry to link to that, I wonder why not. Even if they knew about it (it takes literally 2 minutes to find) you know they'd deliberarely ignore it.

Mass immigrant puts strain on all societies...never a good an idea as people think

is frozen peas a religion

Yes, "the religion of Frozen peas" is a religion. It's a hybrid religion where they group sing along to the words of a bearded man who walks about belting out anthems theatrically in a wilderness of snow.

Religion of piss more like.

I see at last

In my opinion the West has done great evil in the Middle East

We have also allowed large scale Middle East immigration in Europe

taken together this was never a good idea


just my own opinion

Persecution of Christians 'coming close to genocide' in Middle East – report
Millions uprooted from homes, says UK-commissioned report, with many jailed and killed

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/may/02/persecution-driving-christians-out-of-middle-east-report

The Impossible Future of Christians in the Middle East
An ancient faith is disappearing from the lands in which it first took root. At stake is not just a religious community, but the fate of pluralism in the region.

“The inconvenient truth,” the report finds, is “that the overwhelming majority (80%) of persecuted religious believers are Christians”.




You'd think that unbelievable if you just listened to the UK media. I'm guessing at least 80% of the persecutors are from one mob.

Mmm.

You'd be surprised if it were Buddhists, for example, who were persecuting human beings on a genocidal scale.

unless you are in Myanmar

“The inconvenient truth,” the report finds, is “that the overwhelming majority (80%) of persecuted religious believers are Christians”.

that is sad saddo…..because being in a small minority, I doubt they cause ant trouble

They are paying for unwarranted Western interference in the Middle East...especially since 1990

It is not our bailiwick, we should not have been there!

Whether Christians can survive, and thrive, in Muslim-majority countries is a crucial indicator of whether democracy, too, is viable in those places. In Iraq, the outlook is grim, as it is in other nations in the region that are home to historic Christian populations, including Egypt, Syria, and Turkey. Christians who live in these places are subject to discrimination, government-sanctioned intimidation, and routine violence.

Where has there been Western interference in Egypt, Syria or Turkey?

That's a very good point, aaronh.

Because it has been turned into some sort of Islam v Christian war..

All Muslims are told they have to join in

The Muslim and non Muslim worlds will collide in spectacular fashion sooner or later.

Before 1990 I cannot seem to remember any Muslim attacks on Christians myself....


What has happened?

Although Iran did kick the Americans out of Iran, they went back to Fundamentalism.


Trump is talking about a war with Iram now, are the Americans going to go back hmmm????

I notice the West grows more heathen year on year

The Muslims grow more fundamentalist year on year

So who will win in the long run


I could convert to Islam, if

A) They allow gambling

b) They allow alcohol

c) They provide me with a nice Muslim bride (here on Earth not in Heaven)...however she would have to this voluntary...I do not believe in any compulsory stuff

Men and Women make their own choice


The above 3 won't happen so I stay a heathen.

Even if they DID allow A and B, the "getting married" of C would then put a damper on doing them anyway

oh well...worth a try
