#1 These is, of course despicable, and I would like an opportunity to condemn such attacks in strongest terms possible---lots of opportunity!

#2 "There is a clear will today to hurt the Mohammedan community,"

Makes you want to go right out and rub something despicable on a Mooselimb doesn't it? Nothing like a dump truck full of slaughterhouse pig parts driven by the front steps and dumped on the Mosque front door curb.
No loss of life, easy to do. Just takes a minute.

Threater, you're getting really obnoxious again. Why don't you step away from the computer for a while?

AoS

#3 I think a truckload of thoroughly rotten pig intestines dumped on a mosque doorstep would be a good idea, Mince them first.

#4 I notice they aren't handwringing about "why do they hate us?"

#5 Not to change the subject exactly, but how is anti-Jew violence doing in France these days? Mostof the time, if you look at the numbers rather than just the headlines, there a lot more attacks on Jews than there are on Muslims. (I don't count thinking nasty thoughts about Muslims as attacks.)

#7 how is anti-Jew violence doing in France these days?

I've mostly given up posting those stories, Rambler. They make me sad. And anyway, most attacks still aren't reported because that's just the way things are in the Old World, as far as I can tell. Many French Jews (where many is an undefined number) have moved to England -- though that may be as much for tax purposes -- and some have moved to Israel and elsewhere, or sent their children away to school, or whatever. Perhaps someone else can look into it,

Look, when we lived in Germany in the first half of the '90s it was unquestioned that the Jewish day school in Frankfurt needed a police guard provided by the city. And when we visited in 2010 my grandmother's home village had one Jewess, and she was a convert, while the leader of the Jewish community in my mother's home town spoke of his being the last generation despite the influx of Russian Jews over the previous two decades, for which a beautiful little Jewish community center/school/synagogue had been built.
