The Onslaught against the Jews Is an Onslaught against the West

You might have thought that after the October 7 onslaught the world would have shown sympathy to Israel. Instead, apparently triggered by the single biggest attack on Jews since the Holocaust, much of the so-called civilized world has turned against Israel and the Jewish people.

We’re witnessing scenes that none of us thought we’d ever see again. A few days ago, a synagogue in Melbourne was set on fire with people inside it. Last month, after a football match between Dutch and Israeli teams in Amsterdam, mobs of Muslims hunted down Jews in the streets—in their own words, hunting them as Jews. They beat and stabbed them and ran them over with cars. Some Jews jumped into the canals to escape.

Attacks on Jews worldwide are at record levels. In France there’s been a string of anti-Semitic murders of Jews and numerous violent attacks.
