  No way ...
   
  I hate all the French equality!

  Question;: Why do you hate all of the French 
  equally? Equality is grammatically incorrect in this type of sentence. The 
  question still stands: why?  I would appreciate an answer. Thank

I do admit i am probably racist when it comes to jews personally i dont think
hitler was wrong in killing jews only wrong in not killing all of them. in a
way it is good too see alot of people think this way aswell and are starting
to become less worried about showing it.

Although it would be a grave mistake to allow our Anti-Semitism to cloud our
judgements and decisions which must always be made without any pre-judgement
else our final decisions will be doomed to fail.

My friend it seems as though you are anti-france which is just as bad as the
people you are describing.

Would your proposed boycott of all things french not just affect the minority
you speak of but also the decent people of france.

If so by the same ruling we should boycott your own country for your views and
actions of a minority within your own borders.

"One Man's Response to Rising Anti-Semitism in 
Europe"Posted by Jean ShawFriday, 
October 31, 2003 


 Many recent articles have tried to tackle the 
difficult subject of rising anti-Semitism throughout the world.  But the 
following account of anti-Semitic attacks and incidents in Europe--and 
particularly France--says it all.  It was written by Edward Weiner of 
Huntington Beach, California, and was forwarded to me via e-mail by a 
friend.

   Rocks have been lifted all over Europe, and the 
  snakes of Jew-hatred are slithering free. 
   In Belgium, thugs beat up the chief rabbi, kicking 
  him in the face and calling him ''a dirty Jew.'' 
   Two synagogues in Brussels were firebombed; a 
  third, in Charleroi, was sprayed with automatic weapon fire. 
   In Britain, the cover of the New 
  Statesman, a left-wing magazine, depicted a large Star of David stabbing 
  the Union Jack. 
   Oxford professor Tom Paulin, a noted poet, told an 
  Egyptian interviewer that American Jews who move to the West Bank and Gaza 
  ''should be shot dead.'' 
   A Jewish yeshiva student reading the Psalms was 
  stabbed 27 times on a London bus. 
   ''Anti-Semitism,'' wrote a columnist in The 
  Spectator, ''has become respectable . . . at London dinner tables.'' 
   She quoted one member of the House of Lords: ''The Jews have been asking 
  for it and now, thank God, we can say what we think at last.'' 
   In Italy, the daily paper La Stampa 
  published a Page 1 cartoon: A tank emblazoned with a Jewish star points its 
  gun at the baby Jesus, who pleads, ''Surely they don't want to kill me 
  again?''
   In Corriere Della Sera, another cartoon 
  showed Jesus trapped in his tomb, unable to rise, because Ariel Sharon, with 
  rifle in hand, is sitting on the sepulcher.  The caption: ''Non 
  resurrexit.'' 
   In Germany, a rabbinical student was beaten up in 
  downtown Berlin and a grenade was thrown into a Jewish cemetery.  
  Thousands of neo-Nazis held a rally, marching near a synagogue on the Jewish 
  Sabbath.  Graffiti appeared on a synagogue in the western town of 
  Herford: ''Six million were not enough.'' 
   In Ukraine, skinheads attacked Jewish worshippers 
  and smashed the windows of Kiev's main synagogue. Ukrainian police denied that 
  the attack was anti-Jewish. 
   In Greece, Jewish graves were desecrated in 
  Loannina and vandals hurled paint at the Holocaust memorial in Salonica. 
   In Holland, an anti-Israel demonstration featured 
  swastikas, photos of Hitler, and chants of ''Sieg Heil'' and ''Jews into the 
  sea.'' 
   In Slovakia, the Jewish cemetery of Kosice was 
  invaded and 135 tombstones destroyed. 
   But nowhere have the flames of anti-Semitism 
  burned more furiously than in France.
   In Lyon, a car was rammed into a synagogue and set 
  on fire.  In Montpellier, the Jewish religious center was firebombed; so 
  were synagogues in Strasbourg and Marseilles; so was a Jewish school in 
  Creteil.  A Jewish sports club in Toulouse was attacked with Molotov 
  cocktails, and on the statue of Alfred Dreyfus in Paris, the words ''Dirty 
  Jew'' were painted. 
   In Bondy, 15 men beat up members of a Jewish 
  football team with sticks and metal bars.  The bus that takes Jewish 
  children to school in Aubervilliers has been attacked three times in the last 
  14 months. 
   According to the police, metropolitan Paris has 
  seen 10 to 12 anti-Jewish incidents per day since Easter.  Walls in 
  Jewish neighborhoods have been defaced with slogans proclaiming ''Jews to the 
  gas chambers'' and ''Death to the Jews.'' 
   The weekly journal Le Nouvel Observateur 
  published an appalling libel: It said Israeli soldiers rape Palestinian women, 
  so that their relatives will kill them to preserve ''family honor.'' 
   The French ambassador to Great Britain was not 
  sacked -- and did not apologize -- when it was learned that he had told guests 
  at a London dinner that the world's troubles were the fault of ''...that 
  sh--ty little country, Israel.''
   A gunman opened fire on a kosher butcher's shop 
  (and, of course, the butcher) in Toulouse, France; a Jewish couple in their 
  20s were beaten up by five men in Villeurbanne, France.  The woman was 
  pregnant; a Jewish school was broken into and vandalized in Sarcelles, 
  France.  This was in the past week. 
   According to the Anti-Defamation League, from 
  September 9, 2000, at the start of the Intifada, through November 20, 2001, 
  there were some 330 acts of anti-Semitism just in and around Paris.  In 
  addition to literally scores of firebombing of synagogues, just before Rosh 
  Hashanah, 200 Arabs attacked Jews on the Champs Elysees.  The pace has
