Synagogue firebombed near Paris in renewed violence

[King_David]

A firebomb was hurled at a synagogue near Paris, part of a string of anti-Semitic incidents in Western Europe coinciding with Israel’s assault on Hamas in Gaza.

The firebomb went off Friday night at the entrance to the synagogue of Aulnay-sous-Bois, a northeastern suburb of the French capital, according to the National Bureau for Vigilance Against Anti-Semitism, or BNVCA. No one was hurt and the fire resulted in minor damage, Le Monde reported.

On July 8, the day that Israel launched Operation Protective Edge against Hamas in Gaza, a man described as having a Middle Eastern appearance assaulted a Jewish 17-year-old girl on a Paris street near the Gare du Nord train station by spraying pepper-spray on her face, BNVCA also reported.

The girl, identified by her initials, J.L., wrote in her complaint to police that the man, who was in his 20s, shouted: “Dirty Jewess, inshallah you will die.”

France and the Paris region in particular recently have seen an elevated level of anti-Semitic attacks. BNVCA President Ghozlan warned attacks may become even more frequent because of the fighting in Gaza

1. Scary, listen up supporters of Bibi. End the fucking occupation. n/t

[King_David]

2. So the occupation is causing antisemitism?

What was the cause before 1967 ?

3. Read your own OP:

part of a string of anti-Semitic incidents in Western Europe coinciding with Israel’s assault on Hamas in Gaza.

You can deny blow back all you want, but your OP is not helping you.

5. No I agree,

They firebombed a Jewish shul in Paris , attacked a Rabbi in Morocco and called Jews 'Jesus Killers' in Boston.

All been happening for the last 3000 years.

This is the reason for the protests and a lot of postings in a lot of internet forums....

The Gaza defensive operation gives it a convenient Politically Correct 'cover' for the usual.

6. Like I said, your OP does not help you, and neither is your spin n/t

[shira]

4. To Hamas, all Israel is occupied so rockets would continue.

Got a better idea?

[Jefferson23]

7. With your mindset? No.

[shira]

8. Your solution is doomed to fail given what Hamas is all about

Not that you care, b/c Israel must be blamed regardless. The poor innocents of Hamas bear zero responsibility.

Same meme, different day.

[Jefferson23]

9. No, I just don't rely on Bibi talk, as you do. n/t

[shira]

10. No, you don't listen to Hamas or take them seriously. n/t

[Jefferson23]

11. This is not about supporting Hamas, it is about the pretext Bibi used to end the unity agreement. n/

[broiles]

12. +1

[Jefferson23]

15. Mystifying, for some. n/t

[Jefferson23]

14. Another case of failed comprehension to what the OP correlates in their report. n/t

16. How many buildings were destroyed in Palestine today? nt

[sabbat hunter]

17. how many

rockets were fired from those buildings today before they were destroyed?

[IronGate]

18. How many rockets, targeting Israel, were fired from

those buildings by the terrorist org., Hamas, before Israel destroyed them?

Maybe if the terrorist org., Hamas, quit using civilian areas as launching positions for their terrorist rockets, then those buildings would still be standing.

[WhiteTara]

19. Were there any Israeli casualities? No.

So, sounds like scorched earth policy is a good idea to you?
