Disturbing Incident in France
Posted on: Monday, July 12, 2004
A woman and her infant were traveling on the Paris Metro (subway) yesterday when they were set upon by a gang of youths. They slashed her clothes with knives and cut her hair in the horrific event. They were of North African-European heritage and they assaulted the lady because they thought she was a Jew. (No-one present in the carriage did anything to assist the victim.) This comes on top of continued attacks on Jews in France such as a young man beaten beyond recognition outside a yeshiva last week.
Enough is enough. I urge all Jews who are at risk of attack to arm and protect themselves. Not another drop of Jewish blood is to be spilled, not a single Jew is to be humiliated again. We have to send a message to those who hate us, as well as to those goyim who don't care enough to help us in our dire need, that you don't mess with Jews. And that if you do mess with us, YOU will end up holding the shorter end of the stick.
AM YISRA'EL CHAI!
UPDATE: It since transpired that the woman in question was not Jewish at all and that she had fabricated the story (albeit for prima facie somewhat salutary reasons). I condemn her doing so because this type of stunt is no different from the more usual "crying wolf": it does nothing in the fight against anti-Semitism which the French government is trying to pursue.
