Amiram Barkat, Haaretz Correspondent: Marked rise in attacks on Jews in Europe over the past year
Talkback

I haved decided that I must be in dire need of psychiatric help. This is because I am appalled by the increase in anti-semitic violence in Europe, the violence which Palestinians endure in the West bank and even by the Hamas-Fatah violence.

Something must be definitely wrong with me. I am incapable of choosing sides, of justifying the excesses of my "tribe" by citing examples of the depravation of the "other", of demonizing an entire nation, race or religion, of seeing either people as the font of all goodness and the "other" as inherently barbaric.

Obviously this must be my problem, since so many other posters on this board see things differently.

Maybe I do need to join the JDL...perhaps they can straighten me out.

Haaretz please do not censor...I`m sure many of the posters on this board, clothed as they are in absolute certainty,can assist me.
