Melech 9,900 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 The majority of young European Jews express a strong Jewish identity despite feeling unsafe due to rising anti-Semitism, a new study conducted by the European Union’s Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA) has found. The survey, which was based on interviews with more than 2,700 Jews between the ages of 16 and 34, collected in 2018, found that 81 percent of young Jewish Europeans “declared the strength of their Jewish identity to be high” while an identical percentage stated that they believed that “racism is a problem in their countries.” Forty-four percent of those polled said that they had been victims of anti-Semitic harassment, while 85% reported “that people in their countries accuse or blame them for anything done by the Israeli government at least ‘occasionally.'” Nearly half of respondents said that they did not believe they were receiving adequate protection from their governments and 45% stated that they “choose not to wear, carry or display distinguishable Jewish items in public because they are concerned about their safety.” According to FRA, 41% of young Jews have considered emigration “because they did not feel safe living there as a Jewish www.timesofisrael.com%2Fyoung-jews-feel-generally-unsafe-in-europe-says-eu-watchdog Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Ive noticed that in France. There's a huge obsession about jews, especially coming from a certain community that I wont mention bcs it'll cause controversy around here But ive seen it, and there are a lot of crimes against jews to this day. My school is right next to a jewish school for kids and Ive heard some remarks so many times about them... It's crazy to me i dont blame them if they chose to emigrate Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
