RIOTERS RAMPAGE THROUGH JEWISH QUARTER OF BUDAPEST

JPOST: Rioters invade Budapest's Jewish Ghetto

A crowd of 500 demonstrators, including neo-Nazis and skinheads, rampaged in Budapest's Jewish district.

Hungarian riot police deployed tear gas and baton charges Saturday against the vociferously xenophobic crowd as it tried to disrupt Hungary's annual Gay Pride parade.

More than 30 arrests were made on charges including possession of offensive weapons and riotous behavior. Heightened surveillance was enforced throughout the day to prevent a recurrence of the mayhem that ended last year's parade, in which there were more than a dozen serious injuries, according to Éva Tafferner, press officer at Budapest police headquarters.

The rioters invaded the heart of the traditional Jewish Ghetto District, started a small fire, tore down signs and shouted threatening anti-Semitic vitriol. The attacks were witnessed by families of foreign Jews visiting the district for the current Budapest Jewish Cultural Festival.

THIS IS YET ANOTHER RECENT EXAMPLE OF HOW ANTISEMITISM IS ON THE RISE IN EUROPE.

THESE EUROPEAN ANTI-SEMITES KNOW THEY HAVE AN ALLY IN THE WHITE HOUSE.
