Denmark Sees Record-Breaking Levels Of Anti Semitic Incidents Since Oct. 7
by Karen Faulkner, Worthy News Correspondent
(Worthy News) – Denmark has joined a growing list of countries which have registered record-breaking levels of antisemitic incidents since the Hamas genocidal attack against Israel on Oct. 7, the Washington Times reports.
From the time of the October attack to the end of 2023, Denmark’s Jewish Community organization recorded 121 incidents of Jew hatred specifically rather than protests against Israeli policies.
The rapes, beheadings, abductions and wholesale slaughter of some 1,400 mainly civilian Israeli men, women, children, babies, and elderly by Hamas on Oct. 7, 2023 have been seen by millions of people around the world as a justified effort to advance the Palestinian jihadist cause of freedom from Israel and the Jewish people in the Holy Land.
In a statement to the Associated Press about the rising hostility against Jews in Denmark, Henri Goldstein, leader of Jewish Community, said: “After Oct. 7, we have seen antisemitism on steroids,” Goldstein said. “We have seen a violent escalation, not least fueled by the uncontrolled spread of hatred on social media.”
“We have seen the biggest antisemitic wave in Denmark since 1943 [when Denmark was occupied by Nazi Germany], Goldstein said. Denmark has around 6,400 Jews amid a population of 5,952,575 people.
