Ilan Halimi

For those of you who haven't heard, Ilan Halimi is the young Parisian man who was kidnapped and tortured to death over three weeks and left to die on a Parisian street. The MSM in the US barely noticed -- AP and through them, the Washington Post, finally picked it up when there were anti-racism demonstrations in Paris....by the way, the reason he was tortured to death? He was a Jew.

The French police, prosecutors and politicians have danced all around this issue, denying that the crime was motivated by racial or religious hatred. When one of the conspirators was arrested and told them that he was tortured because he was a Jew, French officialdom conceded that it was a hate crime, but added that the other attempted kidnappings by the same crew were not -- except that it turns out they were aimed at Jews also. Okay, this gang is antiSemitic, the French now concede, but its an isolated incident.

Not. See http://www.yourish.com/ and the backtracks there. French Jewry is living on borrowed time.

The silence from the American 6 pm news is deafening. And shameful.

WHY are French Jews (those who haven't fled to Montreal and Israel) still there? Can you spell p-o-g-r-o-m?
