It is my hope whomever was responsible for the desecration of the tombstones in France, hands should rot off. These horrific people will not have answers for G-D when their time comes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I do not think anyone is trying to be mean here but you do not see us writing in broken Hebrew trying to force Israelis to comprehend what we write- so actually the courtesy goes both ways. I respect you enough NOT to write in Hebrew.It's just that we don't understand the meaning of these posts.It is not the first grade where we need to appreciate some word salad.I do commend people trying to be understood but I think one can be a little realistic.Are we being ugly here for being honest?
9. "no inscriptions found on tombstones"
(04.02.07)
Yet it's an "anti-semitic attack." Unfortunately, graveyards are vandalized on a daily basis. You can't just call any crime against Jews antisemitism.

12. #10 you assume..

You are assuming this is antisemitic. Graveyards are vandalized all the time

The article says it is a jewish graveyard. When you vandalize a Jewish graveyard knowingly that's anti-Semitic regardless of what inscriptions are not on the individual tombstones.
14. the real problem
tom ,   toronto, canada   (04.04.07)
the real problem with antisemitism in france is the pro-arab slant of the media. or, to put it another way, the miserable failure of israel to counter the arab propaganda machine, and to challenge its deliberate dehumanizing of israel and jews in general. so long as the french (and the french moslem minority) see israel through the lens of arab propaganda, antisemitism in france will only increase.
15. Don't be fools
Rabi Zeeb ,   NY, USA   (04.05.07)
After watching Sacha Baron Cohen, I decided to test it out myself. I am half Arab and half Israeli, though. But still... I donated some money at a store counter and said "This is going to charity and not the Jews, right?" They laughed and said "I hope not." Then when some people were talking about the Holocaust conference, I decided to reverse it and say I was Jewish and my family died in the Holocaust. These people laughed in my face and said they should have killed them all. They got so mean I had to get away. I think, seeing that the Jews have only one country and must leave others for persecution, why do the Arabs need another? Why on earth does Israel depend on America? Americans are anti-semites and have so many strings attached. Buy from Russia.
