No of course it wasn't anti-semitic, they didn't burn the Torah. The arsonists just randomly chose a building to burn, and it happened to be a synagogue, that's all. They don't hate Jews, of course not.

Personally, I doubt if you could even find Belgium on a world map, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt as it's very small. And if attacks against Jews and Jewish institutions make a country, in your opinion, "a fourth world cesspool." and a "shithole", what rating would you give the good ol' U S of A, which has recently witnessed in Miami-Dade County "an Orthodox synagogue was vandalized, spray-painted with swastikas and the word “Hamas.” A couple of days later and nearby to the original incident, two cars were smeared with cream cheese and eggs, and on one of them, the words “Jew” and “Hamas” were written, the Miami Herald reported.", and before that, Rabbi Joseph Raksin was murdered in the same place. Did you happen to see recently in your own Philedelphia, the swastikas sprayed on a kosher butcher shop, the Ner Tzedek congregation and the Philedelphia Holocaust Museum? So before you call someplace a "shithole", make sure you yourself are wearing a VERY tall pair of rubber waders, as it seems to be getting pretty deep where you are too.

Unfortunately, I've had the opportunity to spend a reasonable amount of time in the cesspool of Belguim. And, while agree that there's a lot of crap here in the USA, I'll take it in a heartbeat over Belguim. The threats here are extant, but not directed towards Jews. you're shithole country is rapidly becoming Islamicized, and it's dangerous for Jews now, and, one day, other non-Moslems. If you can't see that, that's your issue.

but hiding our heads in the sand is NOT the solution. Fighting back is.
