Whether one wants to admit it or not, we are living in an age in which a global campaign exists for the sole and specific reason of legitimizing the destruction of Israel and the expulsion or annihilation of its Jewish population. Iran’s own president is straightforward about wiping Israel off the map. Islamists call for it every five minutes somewhere in the world. Western academics and activists regularly hint at it with such euphemisms as the “one-state solution” (an Arab state, in case you were wondering), and their constant apologetics on behalf of anti-Jewish terrorism. And as the recent atrocities in Toulouse have shown us, the Jews of the Diaspora are not and will not be spared the bloody consequences. http://pjmedia.com/tatler/2012/03/29/is-all-criticism-of-israel-antisemitic-put-simply-yes/
The Austrian paper Die Presse wrote in 2010 that"statements sharply critical of Israel” by Kristin Halvorsen, education minister of the Norwegian Socialist Left Party, have contributed to “legitimizing attacks” against Jews. Jewish pupils have been attacked in Norway’s schools, and teachers have simply looked the other way. Last year, I asked Bruce Bawer, the Oslo-based acclaimed author of While Europe Slept and Surrender,if Norway’s Jews should consider making aliyah (relocate to Israel). “Yes,” he answered explicitly. http://www.philly.com/philly/opinion/inquirer/20120401_Are_Jews_safe_in_Europe_.html
