BERLIN POLICE: WE DID NOT ADVISE JEWS NOT TO WEAR JEWISH ATTIRE

Berlin police: we did not advise Jews not to wear Jewish attire

Bob's Note: Shades of 1938! The Germans are telling the Jews to not look like Jews. But of course what isn't mentioned anywhere in this article is the rampaging homicidal Moslems. All over Europe they attack Christians, Hindus, and Jews with impunity. It's not German Lutherans and Christians attacking their brethren, it's the illiterate mobs of Moslems. And of course the Politically Correct Germans don't want to upset them, they are a protected and privileged minority. Anything the precious Moslems do is not subject to arrest. Are you wondering when they will start Kristalnacht again? Don't forget, the term "Politically Correct Thinking" was invented by Hitler's minister of propaganda, Joseph Goerbles.

Berlin police officials denied a report on Army Radio Tuesday that it had issued recommendations to the city's Jewish community not to wear distinctive Jewish garments for fear they may be the targets of attacks by Muslim youths. According to the report, police specifically advised against the wearing of skullcaps and the Star of David.

Despite the denial, Army Radio's Igal Avidan insisted his report was accurate and that it was based on remarks made by the Berlin police spokesman, Lars Sunman, who was reported saying that the recommendation was "a blow to freedom of religion, but the police cannot protect every single Jew."

The warning comes in the wake of attacks on Jews and Jewish sites in Germany in recent weeks, and the rising wave of anti-Semitic attacks in Europe in recent months, against the backdrop of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

The head of Chabad in Berlin, Rabbi Yehuda Teichler, said he was "shocked" by the police recommendation, but that he did not plan to heed it and to hide the fact that he was Jewish.

The director of the Yad Vashem Holocaust Memorial Museum, Avner Shalev, described the recommendation as offensive, and said it indicated a lack of will on the part of the Berlin police to confront anti-Semitism.
