DENMARK NOT SAFE FOR JEWS?

I don't know what is more disturbing - that the Danes are powerless against thuggism, or that Danish educators see no problem with banning Jews for reasons of safety.

Quote: " ... schools with a high percentage of children of Arab descent say they try to prevent Jewish parents from enrolling their children there.

On Monday, headmaster Olav Nielsen of Humlehave School in Odense publicly admitted he would refuse Jewish parents' wish to place their child at his school.

[CUT]

Other headmasters have now come forth to support Nielsen's position, adding that they are putting the child's safety first. "



Most Americans living in Europe have already had to face that issue - American children in native schools in Europe were often beaten up (especially during and since the Nixon years), and parents have long since preferred to send their children to the nearest American school, OR leave their children in the United States when posted to Europe - but Jews in European countries have for centuries been parts of the societies in which they live, and are vested in continuing in that role.
Since Napoleon's emancipation of the Jews, there have been no reasons other than government-sanctioned anti-Semitism to separate Jews from the general populace in most European societies.
Yet in recent years it seems that Europeans have some regrets that there are still Jews and that the Jewish issue just will not go away.
[Especially now that other minorities have sprouted, and the Jews no longer need to be maintained as an advertisement that one is, despite a horrific past, a civilized and tolerant society.]


From the point of view of the Jews themselves, and for Americans, there really is no 'Jewish Issue'. But European societies still have cultural roots in some very dark-ages, and the social dialectic common in Europe has created a class and caste system in which different groups either segregate themselves, or are segregated by others.
[Turks, Moroccans, Gypsies, and Poles resident in Western Europe are other good examples of that tendency, not to mention members of non-majority religions, and immigrants from former colonies. 'Model Minority', in the minds of many, does not mean a group that blends in, but one that exemplifies how tolerant the majority has been, and continues to be.]


It seems that the Danes are tacitly admitting that their society has become ill, and that hate is the cause of that illness.
If Denmark is no longer safe for Jews, how safe is it for anyone else?
