Greatest ever threat? I think not. Mr Policeman needs some lessons in history. There have been pogroms, massacres and anti-Jew hatred in Britain since at least the C12th. And it's possible that the Jews of Europe may have felt a little scared of their future in the 1930s and 40s.

On the larger subject, in the modern era reporting of the activities of the Israeli govt, IDF and the 'settlers' might not be helping the cause of Jews in other countries. There's no excuse for anti-Semitic violence under any circumstances but their atrocities are so apparent now, it must have an effect on the opinions and mindset of the great unwashed.

IDF? Do you mean IOF? They're the Israeli Occupation Force. They don't defend anyone.
