Not only because it is a social group that brings us so muchbut because its counterweight is vital. Unwittingly, they became the stop the ball from the heart of the West. In the Anglo-Saxon world, a litmus test (decisive test, in chemistry), in a political and social senseis the definitive way to prove what you want to prove. And now the matter for the Jews, it is that litmus test of a dangerous maladjustment of a immigration of Muslim origin who, in his second and third generation, develops a spirit antagonistic to the values of the society which welcomed his parents. It is the infallible test which underlines the danger which weighs on our democratic values, our freedom of conscience and sexual orientation and the rights of women.
THE the jihadist presence in Europe puts us all in a historic situation. And the concept of jihadism covers both extreme cases and terrible attacks at the Bataclan, Atosha and many more like that false indignationexpressed in universities or public spaces, phear the actions of the Israeli army in Gaza. Firstly because Israel has the right to defend itself and recover its hostages. Second, because pro-Palestinian protesters in the West do not hide for a moment that their motivations are unequivocally genocidal against the Jewish people in general. Just a few weeks ago, in Amsterdam – despite the irresponsible behavior of Maccabi Tel Aviv fans at the start – Jewish citizens who had nothing to do with it were attacked indiscriminately. An unimprovised “hunt for Jews” was carried outorganized by WhatsApp and Telegram, in which gangs roamed the city looking for anyone they suspected of being one. “Today we are going to drive out the Jews,” they said in viral videos. The result was devastating. “It’s so shocking and despicable that I still can’t get over it. It’s a shame,” Amsterdam Mayor Femke Halsema told the Wall Street Journal. If fans of Liverpool, Real Madrid or AC Milan riot during a football match, violence generalized does not break out against all Britons, Spaniards or Italians What happened in Amsterdam is a sectarian hate crime and these. nights of broken glass They have spread to other populations, even from neighboring countries.

Before the Holocaust, the pessimists fled and were saved. The optimists stayed and were killed. Avraham Gigi, chief rabbi of Brussels, said: “The synagogues are protected fortresses, the schools have no signs, but many police and private security guards, houses removed the outer mezuzah, Jews do not wear yarmulkes in the street or wear Star of David necklacesthey don’t give their Hebrew last name to taxis, they tell their children not to speak Hebrew in public, there is no Israeli flag in their windows. Is this Jewish life? And the chief rabbi of the Great Synagogue of Paris, Moshe Sebbag, spoke in similar terms; or the chief rabbi of Barcelona, Meir Bar Hen, who invited Jews to pack their bags with these words: “Our community is condemned both because of radical Islam and the reluctance of the authorities to confront it.
Indeed, and it is absolutely incomprehensible. As Ayaan Hirsi Ali wrote: “The West is on the path to submission. » Frederik Sieradzki, spokesman for Malmö’s Jewish community, says Sweden’s third-largest city could lose all its Jews by 2029. And if that happens, there’s no doubt it will also be lost for the Swedes. And for all of us.
