And yet today’s European biggest Jewish communities are in France. Lots of great Jewish movies in the cinemas in my city.
Depressing how much culture, talent and prowess European countries lost again and again by repressing, expelling and massacring its Jewish population. All this without the map even showing the darkest periods of Jewish history in Europe.
Unfortunately, hatred still seems to be a big item on the agenda of the establishments in parts of Europe.
Take a look at the incitements for hatred towards both Serbians and Kosovars. And towards Russians. And towards the Turkish peoples.
What Europe needs more than anything is a long term plan for reversing global warming. And realize when there is a diversion towards division, hate, and racism.
Jews came to Denmark after an invite from from King Christian lV. 400 years ago. They came from German territories that really did not want them.
It was not until 1814 that they got citizenship rights equal to native Danes.
Mistrust of Jews in Christian/Catholic Europe was a thing for a very long time.
Portuguese jews also moved to England to escape persecution
were Jews okay with Ottoman rule?
If no one likes you it just might be you and not them
this is why Israel is so important. finally a home for Jews
Probably Portugal’s biggest mistake, together with kicking out Jesuits.
As James Joyce wrote in *Ulysses*, the Jews were never expelled from Ireland because they were never left in. On a more serious note, the community resident here has never been particularly sizeable:
Ah yes, the Jews – the most convenient internationally available scapegoat to ever exist.
You got a problem? The jews did it!
Humans are incredible.
Parallel societies that are too distinct from majority society always seems to cause problems over time, it seems that humans, as group animals, have a hard time dealing with outside groups. Naturally this is no excuse for violence and hatred, it is merely an observation .
Real question, why all that beef against the Jews throughout history?
