The new Malmo: Jews fleeing Brussels because of antisemitic Islamists

Malmo, Sweden, isn't the only place in Europe where Jews feel unsafe and are moving out.

A report this week in De Telegraaf includes a (Dutch language) video about the problem.

"We feel increasingly unsafe." More and more Jews swap Brussels for Tel Aviv in fear of the growing anti-Semitism in the city.

Betty, a real estate specialist, is seeing more and more Jews seeking to settle permanently in Israel. In Belgium they feel unsafe.

We can no longer wear the Star of David around our necks. We used to be able to without problems," she said.

The growing hatred for Jews, is the fault of the Belgian government, which does too little to combat Muslim extremism.



Meanwhile, the Netherlands has become one of the major exporers of jihadists. Nearly 100 Dutch Islamists are now fighting in Syria, Somalia and Afghanistan.
