The survey was conducted by the European Unions Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA). Its release Friday was timed to coincide with the 75th anniversary of the Kristallnacht pogroms in Nazi Germany. The Agency for Fundamental Rights said 5,847 self-identified Jews were surveyed in eight Western European countries in which some 90% of the estimated Jewish population in the EU live. Among the findings: 34 percent of poll respondents in Sweden and 29 percent in France said they never wear a Star of David or anything else that could signal their religion. Over three quarters of overall respondents said the situation had become more acute in the last five years and the same number consider online anti-Semitism to be a real problem. Twenty one percent said they had experienced an anti-Semitic incident involving verbal insult, harassment or a physical attack in the year preceding the poll. Hungary garnered the highest numbers among respondents for manifestations of anti-Semitism on the internet, in the media, and in political life 86%, 73%, and 84% respectively. In France, 78% of respondents said vandalism of Jewish buildings and institutions was a problem. According to the report, only 8% of survey respondents in Latvia said the Arab-Israeli conflict had an impact on their feelings of safety, with that figure rising to 28% for respondents in Germany and 73% in France. The agency said its findings aim to provide guidance on measures to take against anti-Semitism. Antisemitism is a disturbing example of how prejudice can persist through the centuries, and it has no place in our society today. It is particularly distressing to see that the internet, which should be a tool for communication and dialogue, is being used as an instrument of anti-Semitic harassment, said FRA Director Morten Kjaerum. While many EU governments have made great efforts to combat anti-Semitism, more targeted measures are needed.

Well, between the native europeans, who have been betrayed by their leaders through the flooding of their countries with african/arab mongrels, and the african/arab mongrels who are now running the streets of europe, I'd say european jews have brought it on themselves.
