"I honestly don't know, but I do know this is precisely why having a strong, safe, secure Israel is so important. There must always be a Jewish state for Jews to have refuge in."

We would like the arsonists to be arrested, tried and condemned in the hardest possible way to send a strong signal about France's commitment to fight anti-Semitism...

Yes, sir-ee bob! and you can bet the French authorities will go after these preps with a razor...an electric razor.

I wonder why the Jews are so hated in Europe? Can anyone shed a truthful light on this?

In a nutshell, IMHO, European dislike/hatred of the Jews goes way, way back to ancient Romen times. And you don't erase 2000+ years of this in only 50 or so years (1945 - present) Most don't really know why they hate the Jews - or Catholics, or capitalists, or FreeMasons, or Americans, etc. - they just do.

Jews are hated by Muslims, which France has imported by the millions these past few decades. This crime was most likely perpetrated by French Arab Muslims.

Unfortunately, we're on the same track to ruin as France, with George Bush continuing his predecessor's habit of importing about 100,000 fresh new legal-immigrant muslims per year.

Yep, I do wonder about some of these "conservatives" -- and wonder how many of them are really Pat Buchanan, Robert Novak, Joe Sobran, etc., cowering behind anonymous screen names as they rally for the dismantling and demise of Israel.

There is no "West Bank"; only Judea and Samaria. The Arab occupation of these two areas must end.

SUNSPOT.net: "FBI PROBES SUSPICIOUS INCIDENT AT JEWISH GIRLS MIDDLE SCHOOL" by Andrew Green (ARTICLE SNIPPET: "The parent reported to the school's principal and police that the pair videotaped the entrance to the school and the girls as they were leaving the building. When the parent approached them, according to the letter and a police report, they fled. The parent reported the license plate number of the car, and Baltimore County Police, and members of the FBI's terrorism task force have questioned the driver and are in contact with him, Spetner said. The man is a Saudi national who is a student at a local college, Spetner said. According to a police report, he lives in the Fallstaff neighborhood of Northwest Baltimore.")

Thanks for the ping.

Cindy, I thought about that article too when I read the title. Very disturbing.

The jihadis HATE Christians, Jews, and other assorted "infidels."

Wellllllllll, love conquers hate, but hate feeds upon itself and eventually kills itself. Sounds philisophical, but it's true.

I also thought about those terror training tapes they found in Afghanistan. Remember the one that was on Fox showing how to attack a school?

Yes, I do remember those tapes...similar ones in Pakistan too, I believe. WorldNetDaily.com did a good set of articles about that subject, and I believe CNN did a show exploring those tapes and Fox has explored that issue, too.


U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE - Public Announcement: "WORLDWIDE CAUTION" (September 26, 2003) (Read More...)

As you can see, schools are mentioned in this latest "worldwide caution" public announcement. Unfortunately, not everyone pays attention, so let me print out the most current worldwide caution here.


PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT
U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE
Office of the Spokesman


------------------------------------------------------------------------

This information is current as of today, Mon Nov 17 19:56:01 2003.

WORLDWIDE CAUTION

September 26, 2003

This supersedes the Worldwide Caution dated September 10, 2003. It is being issued to remind U.S. citizens of the continuing threat that they may be a target of terrorist actions, even after the anniversary date of the September 11 attacks, and to add the potential for threats to maritime interests. This Worldwide Caution expires on February 25, 2004.

The U.S. Government remains deeply concerned about the security of U.S. citizens overseas. U.S. citizens are cautioned to maintain a high level of vigilance, to remain alert and to take appropriate steps to increase their security awareness. We are seeing increasing indications that Al-Qaida is preparing to strike U.S. interests abroad. Looking at the last few months, Al-Qaida and its associated organizations have struck in the Middle East in Riyadh, in North Africa in Casablanca, and in East Asia in Indonesia. We therefore assess that other geographic locations could be venues for the next round of attacks. We expect Al-Qaida will strive for new attacks that will be more devastating than the September 11 attack, possibly involving nonconventional weapons such as chemical or biological agents. We also cannot rule out the potential for Al-Qaida to attempt a second catastrophic attack within the U.S.

Terrorist actions may include, but are not limited to, suicide operations, hijackings, bombings or kidnappings. These may also involve commercial aircraft and maritime interests, and threats to include conventional weapons, such as explosive devices. Terrorists do not distinguish between official and civilian targets. These may include facilities where American citizens and other foreigners congregate or visit, including residential areas, clubs, restaurants, places of worship, schools, hotels, outdoor recreation events or resorts and beaches. U.S. citizens should remain in a heightened state of personal security awareness when attendance at such locations is unavoidable.

U.S. Government facilities worldwide remain at a heightened state of alert. These facilities may temporarily close or suspend public services from time to time to assess their security posture. In those instances, U.S. embassies and consulates will make every effort to provide emergency services to U.S. citizens. Americans abroad are urged to monitor the local news and maintain contact with the nearest American embassy or consulate.

As the Department continues to develop information on any potential security threats to U.S. citizens overseas, it shares credible threat information through its consular information program documents, available on the Internet at http://travel.state.gov. In addition to information on the Internet, U.S. travelers may obtain up-to-date information on security conditions by calling 1-888-407-4747 toll-free in the U.S. or outside the U.S. and Canada on a regular toll line at 1-317-472-2328.
