Malmo, Sweden - A Hotbed of Antisemitism
(Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs) Suzan Quitaz - Thousands of pro-Palestinian demonstrators gathered in the Swedish city of Malmo to protest against Israel's participation in the Eurovision Song Contest. Following Hamas's Oct. 7 massacres, Swedish cities, especially Malmo, have seen a vast storm of vile hatred against Israel and against the Jews of Sweden. On Nov. 20, 2023, a survey by the Official Council of Swedish Jewish Communities found that 63% of Sweden's Jews were scared of falling victim to antisemitic crimes, while 82% are afraid to be openly Jewish.
