Anti-Israeli Demonstrations turn Anti-Semitic
04.01.2009
Islamist and pro-Palestinian European organizations have organized meetings and demonstrations in support of Hamas militants in many European cities this weekend.
Almost everywhere only those from Arab and African countries took part in the demonstrations, while the indigenous population rather indifferently watched the protesters.
Almost everywhere the protests against the military operation of Israel quickly turned into clearly anti-Semitic slogans.
The most massive demonstration took place in Paris, which quickly turned into street riots with shoplifting, broken shop-windows and houses, and a few dozen cars set on fire.
In London, the police also detained about a dozen particularly active supporters of Hamas, who called for aggression against the Jewish people and were trying to engage in a fight with the authorities.
The Jewish community leaders in Belgium are planning to sue the functionaries of the Arab European League, who during the demonstration in Antwerp were distributing reminders about the prophet Mohammed's prediction of a war between Muslims and Jews.
"We warn you of friendship with Jews and Christians who are the enemies of Islam," read the leaflets.
