Scapegoats Never Die, Especially When They're Jewish
(Jerusalem Post) Akiva J. Covitz - According to the FBI's annual report: Of the 2,118 victims of hate crime in the U.S. in 2001, 26% were Muslims, but 56.5% were Jews. In 2000, there were 1,699 victims of hate crimes based on religion. Of those, 1,269 (approximately 75%) were Jews. At many Jewish houses of worship in the U.S., a police car sits prominently parked outside during services with an armed officer at the ready. Most major Jewish organizations across America must hire security guards to protect against those who hate Jews.
