Four Jewish Defense League members were arrested on Wednesday, according to Agence France Presse, in connection to last week's attack on a Paris bookstore. Judicial officials were quoted in the report as saying that the shop is run by pro-Palestinian activists, and has fallen victim to several such attacks.

Good work
Yes. I read it. I have heard Rebitzen Jugreis speak in person too. Powerful piece.
Not exactly the same as yanking an innocent kid off the street and torturing him for two weeks till he dies, but it’s good to see the JDL fighting back.
If you'd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

Counterproductive. Defending your community is one thing, destroying a bookstore a criminal act.
There is no such thing as international law for the Jews except that we die without fighting (as the world screams Israel do).
As that is the case, there is no law for our anti-Semitic enemies either. There will be no double standards here.

Arabs out of Israel! And Ode Kahane Chai!
Agreed. This isn’t defense, this is thuggery. Their time would be better spent guarding Jewish lives and property, and cracking the heads of any “yutes” who try to damage them,
There’s no question of international law here. I’m sure vandalism is illegal in France, just as it is in the US. Even when Jews do it, even when the victims are Arabs. This is as beneficial to the Jewish community as bombing abortion clinics is to the pro-life movement. And I recognize some support that too.
The law in France? Everyone knows that little kid, Muhammed al Dura, was shot on a sound stage -- not by Zahal; however, we Jews were blamed for that blood libel for a longtime and still are blamed for it. As an ugly drive by media contrast to the, possibly, fake shooting of Muhammed al Dura, the martyrdom of Persian, Christian martyr, Neda ( yes, she is Christian. Her photo was cropped by the drive by media to obscure the cross on her neck ) is covered up by the same drive by media. With Jews defending themselves against the war crimes of Hamas now called a warcrime by European and most of world opinion, there is no law for Jews anywhere and Jews should return the favor to their enemies.
Mr. Jackson. As a longtime admirer of yours, your view reminds me of that old joke I heard about two Jews being led to the courtyard to be shot. As the joke goes, one of the Jews going to the courtyard to be shot says "the blindfold is to tight." The other Jews whispers anxiously, "quiet! Don't make trouble!"
Trouble has come and trouble will come even more. Even if the Jews are the good little boys you want them to be.
This isn’t about defense, it’s about criminal activity.
This isn’t about defense, it’s about criminal activity.
Thank you.
Not only were these actions morally wrong and illegal, they carry with them a number of apparent consequences as well as unforeseen consequeces. Most particularly for Jews, most particularly Jews in the region.
You would think that others here would instinctively realize that smashing-up shops is never a good way to proceed. Yet the meme on the thread seems to be "Oh good, lets begin vandalizing their retail stores." < /knuckledragger>
Agreed.
That's also likely
Thank you, multi-cultural elitists for encouraging the growth of violence in society.

shame on you JPost.
I suspect there is more to this story than is reported in this article. Why this store?
Let’s remember that France has seen many attacks on Jews including the horrific torture of Ilan Halimi.
Quite right! It's open season on Jews in France and maybe the rest of Europe as well.
The Halimi case is covered up by the french media. The cops didn't warn the Jewish community that people were going around looking for a Jew to kidnap and the French media barely reported on the trial of Halimi's killers: The story is here: Islam's homemade concentration camp

It seems violence works wonders for them.
