A recent report from from British Community Security Trust (CST) is giving us the very alarming fact that anti-Semitism has more than doubled in England from Januray to June 2009, up from 276 incidents in the first half of the previous year, that exceeds the previous year’s total record of 598. They (CST) have been tracking the incidents for the last 25 years. The surge in anti-semitic acts was due to the Dec’08-Jan’09 Gaza offensive.To be sure, the UK was not the sole European country to go after Israel and the Jewish people, as France (I actually was on the streets of Paris when it took place) joined the ranks of pro-Palestinians shouting anti-Jewish slogans at the top of their lungs.
