Swedish Jews facing anti-Semitism

I'm actually somewhat surprised to see this happening in Sweden:

When she first arrived in Sweden after her rescue from a Nazi concentration camp, Judith Popinski was treated with great kindness.

She raised a family in the city of Malmo, and for the next six decades lived happily in her adopted homeland - until last year.

In 2009, a chapel serving the city's 700-strong Jewish community was set ablaze. Jewish cemeteries were repeatedly desecrated, worshippers were abused on their way home from prayer, and "Hitler" was mockingly chanted in the streets by masked men.

"This new hatred comes from Muslim immigrants. The Jewish people are afraid now."

So... Why isn't the government doing anything?

Scandinavian countries are seeing Churches burned down all the time by motorcycle gangs. All they can do is investigate. What would you have Sweden do?

Mark Steyn and Bruce Bawer have been reporting on Malmo since at least 2007. Malmo apparently has a very large number of unassimilated Muslims.

Sadly, Anti-Semitism is on the rise in Europe in general. Partly due to the economy and partly due to the rise of Muslim immigration.

The few people I know that have spent time in Sweden have told me that outside of Stockholm the country is a wee bit less open to 'diversity'.

Sad to see Muslimbrothers fall for the idiocies of some.

Anti-semitism never really left Europe. It just hibernated after it's height for a while.. As everywhere in the world..

I can't say I'm surprised, except that I was expecting something like this to surface earlier. What a shame, is there nowhere left in the world free of antisemitism?

The real shame is that the islamic community are not called on their ********, because it seems the whole world fear offending them.
