Notoriously anti-gun Europe will probably turn down this request from the European Jewish Association to allow members of their community to carry firearms to defend themselves.
But what does it say about the plight of Jews in Europe that they would feel compelled to ask?
The European Jewish Association (EJA), which represents Jewish communities across Europe, says that gun license laws must be altered following a string of deadly attacks on Jews in France and other European countries, where anti-Semitism has been growing at an alarming rate.
The recent attacks, including one on a Kosher market that killed four, “have revealed the urgent need to stop talking and start acting” in a way that empowers Europe’s Jews, according to a letter sent Tuesday by EJA General Director Rabbi Menachem Margolin to EU leaders.
The EU, which has enacted very stringent gun control laws, should empower and train Jews to be proficient with guns in order to maintain their safety, according to Margolin.
“The Paris attacks, as well as the many challenges and threats which have been presented to the European Jewish community in recent years, have revealed the urgent need to stop talking and start acting,” Margolin writes.
“We hereby ask that gun licensing laws are reviewed with immediate effect to allow designated people in the Jewish communities and institutions to own weapons for the essential protection of their communities, as well as receiving the necessary training to protect their members from potential terror attacks.”

It’s deja vu Warsaw all over again.
IMHO
Never happen.
Great, big smile on my face for the effort by God's chosen.
The EJA will now be labeled a far right organisation by the yourapeeins. They will not be heard from again.
An armed population may be an obstacle to elitist ambitions. To the EU commissars, better a few dead Jews than losing power. Besides, “terrorism” justifies a police state with unlimited surveillance powers.
That will never happen. The only place Jews are free to carry guns is in Israel.
Do you want to live or once again be led like sheep to the slaughter? Don’t ask permission, get the weapons and protect yourselves by any means necessary.

“The only place Jews are free to carry guns is Israel.”
That is, if they can get a not so easy to get an ownership permit. They like to limit ownership to professional security people. Its even tough for a military veteran with 3 years sevice to have a firearm. Israel rejects 40% of all permitapplications.
Surprised? So was I. Free carry there is a common misconception.
That’s what I was thinking. Why even ask?
Why eve put up with Europe at all after what happened to them before.
They are too timid. They need to at least visit Isreal and take a course in kick ass and take names.
etc., etc.
go look for yourself
Also, the Germans did not vote Hitler into office (even though he was wildly popular); however, America voted the affirmative action moron into office TWICE. America can be so proud /sarc
Well, better late than never. Here in the good old USA, the most reliable backers of anti-gun-freedom laws/rules/regulations have been Jews. I never could understand why.
Yeah ... go figure.
Somebody send a copy of this to Diane Feinstein.
