European anti-Semitism.

The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) carried an opinion survey of five European countries (France, Germany, Spain, Italy and Poland), and found anti-Semitism is on the rise.

Respondents across the continent were asked a series of indicator questions representing the most pernicious notions of anti-Semitism and whether or not they thought the following four statements were "probably true" or "probably false."

  • Jews are more loyal to Israel than to this country.
  • Jews have too much power in the business world.
  • Jews have too much power in international financial markets.
  • Jews still talk too much about what happened to them in
    the Holocaust.

Unfortunately, the survey showed that " a plurality of Europeans believe Jews are more loyal to Israel than to their country and that they have too much power in business and finance."
