    The survey was conducted by the European Union’s Agency for Fundamental Rights. Its release Friday was timed to coincide with the 75th anniversary of the Kristallnacht pogroms in Nazi Germany.

    Among the findings: 34 percent of poll respondents in Sweden and 29 percent in France said they never wear a Star of David or anything else that could signal their religion.

    The Agency for Fundamental Rights said 5,847 self-identified Jews were surveyed in eight Western European countries. It said its findings aim to provide guidance on measures to take against anti-Semitism.

    When you consider how the various European nations hate each other with a passion then their innate Antisemitism makes perfect sense. Do a search for “European hate chart” for a glaring representation.

    I’m anti European myself. I can’t stand 3/4’s of them and that number is rising daily. I bet my next year I won’t be able to stand any of those stinky poor mannered bastards.

    And another thing. What these scum bags in Europe think of me I don’t really want to know and I don’t really care unless they make it an issue for me or us. They can think whatever they want about me as long as they don’t take it to the next step. If they do, I say knock their crooked teeth right out of their polluted mouths.

    Chances are that Europe wants to have its dishes dried and washed by their own anti-Semitic ways. They may be as ugly as it comes.
