\r\n\tPresident of the European Jewish Congress Dr. Moshe Kantor spoke Sunday about the fact that Jews feel less welcome and more insecure in large parts of Europe during the release of the findings regarding the situation of anti-Semitism worldwide in 2013.<\/p>\r\n

\r\n\tKantor was speaking at a press conference where the annual findings for 2013 were released by The Kantor Center for the Study of Contemporary European Jewry and the Moshe Kantor database for the Study of Contemporary Antisemitism and Racism at Tel Aviv University, in cooperation with the European Jewish Congress.<\/p>\r\n

\r\n\tResults from the 2013 survey show that anti-Semitic attacks are growing in their intensity and cruelty.<\/p>\r\n

\r\n\tThe number and type of violent attacks against Jews, Zionists and Jewish institutions is worsening.<\/p>\r\n

\r\n\tDuring 2013, there were 554 registered anti-Semitic acts, perpetrated with weapons or without, by arson, vandalism and direct threats, against persons, synagogues, community centers and schools, cemeteries, monuments and private property.<\/p>\r\n

\r\n\tThe highest number of recorded incidents comes from France: 116, a rise in violent cases has also been noted in the Britain, with 95 cases compared to 84 in 2012, and in Canada, 83 compared to 74; in Germany: 36 compared to 23; 23 in the Ukraine, compared to 15; 15 cases in Russia (11 in 2012), and 14 in Hungary (12 in 2012).<\/p>\r\n

\r\n\tWe also learn that Jews remain, in parts of Europe, the most targeted minority, especially relative to its numbers.<\/p>\r\n

\r\n\tIn France, for example, Jews are around 1% of the population, while 40% of the attacks in 2013 were against Jews.<\/p>\r\n

\r\n\t“As we see in these findings in addition to results from the EU Fundamental Rights Agency survey released in November, Jews do not feel safe or secure in certain communities in Europe,” Kantor said.<\/p>\r\n

\r\n\t“According to that survey, almost half of the Jewish population is afraid of being verbally or physically attacked in a public place because they are Jewish and 25% of Jews will not wear anything that identifies them as Jewish or go near a Jewish institution for fear of an attack.”<\/p>","content_source":null,"content_url":null,"content_columns":"0","content_date_start":"2014-04-27 15:30:37","content_date_finish":"2014-04-27 15:30:37","content_date_register":"2014-04-27 15:30:37","content_date_last_edit":"0000-00-00 00:00:00","content_show_img":"1","content_show_details":"1","content_show_related_img":"1","content_show_slider":"1","content_show_title_slider":"1","content_comment":"0","content_score":"0","content_recorded":"0","content_confirmed":"1","content_status":"1","content_kind":"0","old_id":"122196","tag_id":null,"tag_word":null,"tag_service":null,"tag_total":null,"tag_soundex":null,"attach_token":"1373855474","attach_date_register":"2014-04-27 15:31:06","attach_id":"118839","attach_file_ext":"jpg","attach_file_header":"image\/jpeg","attach_img_type":"2","attach_img_width":"122","attach_img_height":"77","attach_file_media":"1","attach_show_watermark":"0","score_average":null,"score_count":null,"score_date_last":null,"visit_count":"160","visit_date_last":"2025-05-09 21:57:41","attach_title":"Anti-Semitism Intensified Worldwide in 2013","node_title":"news","ot_node_left_right":"[{\"node_id\":122, \"left\":2, \"right\":53}]"}]]
