Minister: European antisemitism 'not Islam as such'

Perpetuating a politically correct - and deceptive - point of view, Israel's Minister for Diaspora Affairs Isaac Herzog said that the Muslim antisemites in Europe do not represent "Islam as such."

Herzog was responding to a report by the visiting European Commissioner for Justice, Freedom and Security, Franco Frattini, who said that Muslims are responsible for more than 50 percent of antisemitic acts perptrated on the Continent.

Speaking to The Jerusalem Post, Herzog said that it was "not new that Frattini relates a large percentage of antisemitic incidents to radical Islam, and it's important to say, not Islam as such."

In line with most western leaders, Israel tries consistently to differentiate between "radical" and "moderate" Islam despite the incontrovertible fact that, from its founding to the present day, the religion has employed terrorism and war in its jihad against non-Muslims around the world.
