Europe
European leaders hold emergency meetings on anti-Semitism
2003-11-17
EFL & Canadian Bias.
[Gay] PARIS - French and Italian leaders are holding urgent meetings with members of the Jewish community Monday to discuss what many say is rising anti-Semitism in Europe.
At least the Italians are there.
Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon will discuss anti-Semitism in his three-day series of meetings with Italian leaders in Italy, including Silvio Berlusconi – the current president of the European Union.
Berlusconi is one the few European leaders with any testosterone.
The meetings come in the wake of the truck bomb attacks on two Istanbul synagogues that murdered killed 23 innocent Jews people and injured more than 300 on Saturday. French Jewish schools, temples and cemeteries have been hit in a series of anti-Semitic attacks. Last year, a Marseille synagogue was burned to the ground. No one was injured in the recent attack against the Jewish boys school.
Here is money quote:
Many all of the attacks have been blamed on radical extremists Muslim youth angry at the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Blamed? ...on angry Mulsim youth? Poor misguided children just acting out their frustrations? No bias here.

#4  For a while this weekend the CNN crawler was reporting a Eurpoean meeting about "Semitism." A typo? A Freudian slip? I report, you decide.

#3  Liberal Hawk:

I stand corrected. My atempt was to clarify the nature of those who were murdered. Please accept my apologies.

#2  "23 innocent Jews people"

just to correct - info today says 17 of those killed were muslims.

#1  poor, angry yoots. I guess this Canadian wants us to see that bombing synagogues is not all that different than cherry bombs in the mailbox. Just a greater scale to express their greater level of anger - right? Not to mention, of course, the greater level of international terrorist funding and organization. Other than that, it's all pretty much the same.
