Anti-Semites in Belgium are no longer hiding The growing support in Europe for a Palestinian state, alongside the sharp rise in anti-Semitic incidents in most of the continents countries, present an alarming picture. What people euphemistically refer to as anti-Israel activity, researchers are now defining as new anti-Semitism. Three of the European Unions five main institutions are located in Brussels. In the city center, near commercial and tourist sites, we heard blatant statements against Israel and the Jews from Belgian citizens. It seems people are no longer afraid to express anti-Semitic sentiments. I think in Israel Jews are doing a bit the same sometimes like when they lived in Europe in the past and Second World War, says Simon de Klerk, a Belgian student. Now they are building walls and they are putting people in the place that they have been. They are putting people in the ghetto in Palestina while they have been put in ghettos themselves, and I think they should think about it and use that position and shouldn’t do that to other people because there are not many populations who have experienced it like them. ynetnews/articles/0,7340,L-4611090,00.html
