- Et antisemittisk angrep

Tals­mann for en jødisk para­ply­or­ga­ni­sa­sjon i Frank­rike sier angre­pet på den jødiske sko­len i Tou­louse ikke var til­fel­dig. Det var et anti­se­mit­tisk angrep.

Gil Taieb, a vice pre­si­dent of the CRIF, France’s Jewish umbrella group, told The Jeru­sa­lem Post he had no doubt the attack was a hate crime.

“For some­one to locate this school in a place like Tou­louse means he knew what he was doing,” Taieb said. “He went there to kill Jews.”

Taieb said the com­mu­nity was in a state of shock.

“There are occa­sio­nal anti-Semitic attacks but they are small, not­hing like this,” he said. “We haven’t had somet­hing like this in at least ten years.“

Det bor 500.000 jøder i Frank­rike, en av de største kom­mu­ni­te­ter uten­for Israel. Skulle det vise seg at angre­pet var poli­tisk vil det kunne få store ring­virk­nin­ger for jøder i Frank­rike, og i andre land der fler­kul­tu­ren betyr økt antisemittisme.
