Israel Diaspora Affairs Ministry: Attacks Against Jews on the Rise
(Jerusalem Post) Sam Sokol - There has been "an alarming rise in the number of attacks against Jewish targets" over the past year, according to a new report on anti-Semitism in 2012 released on Sunday by the Public Diplomacy and Diaspora Affairs Ministry. Minister Yuli Edelstein told the cabinet that a "preliminary analysis of trends" in data collected by the Kantor Center for the Study of Contemporary European Jewry at Tel Aviv University indicates that Israeli policy "does not constitute the main incentive for anti-Semitic actions against Jews."
