Three Jew-hate incidents 'every day' since Paris | The Jewish Chronicle

A hate crimes watchdog has revealed that there has been an average of around three antisemitic incidents a day in France since the supermarket murders in Paris earlier this year.

In addition, the Bureau National de Vigilance Contre l'Antisemitisme (BNVCA) believes that there are even more antisemitic crimes than it has recorded because French Jews are reporting hate incidents "less and less".

BNVCA director Danielle Ferra said that Jews are now feel that talking to police about a hate attack is a waste of time. "If the perpetrators get arrested they are released again and just continue with the attacks, and if they go to prison, they become Islamist extremists. We don't know what to do," she said.

Since the Paris killings, BNVCA has registered 22 complaints of physical violence, 72 online incidents and around 60 accounts of verbal abuse and threats.

on google to find the answer to your deflection from this story:

Next time you can do your own homework - especially if it's merely to deflect from a story you find uncomfortable.

I was actually wondering how many anti-Arab attacks by Jews are made in Israel each day, but I didn't express that clearly. I apologize for that. For equivalency, the question is not how many anti-Muslim attacks there are but how many Jewish attacks on Arabs per day. It does make me uncomfortable when only one side of a question is presented. I'd feel better informed if I could make an honest comparison between the two.

is if Jews everywhere are responsible for the actions of Israel but I'll let the poster try and explain that bullshit him/herself.
