Belgian Jews in Shock over Beating of 13-Year-old Girl
Five Muslim Moroccan girls in Belgium beat a 13-year-old classmate, called her a "dirty Jew” and told her to "return your country.”

The girl, Oceane Sluijzer, has filed a complaint with police after the anti-Semitic attack at a sports training center. The attackers were identified and questioned by police.

Jewish legislator Viviane Teitelbaum of Brussels denounced the "silence" of political leaders and most of media after this attack.

It also told the Belgian French community's Education Minister he should "introduce appropriate educational programs in schools to prevent unjustified tensions between communities,” the European Jewish Press reported.

Where did these five little girls learn to hate so much that they would gang up on one girl? Where is the moral outrage in Belgian society that helped create this hostile environment?

5. Well...hypocrisy and justice are lost on little tiny tyrants
As far as they were concerned, they were in the right, no matter how hypocritical their actions were.

2. How many posts...

I wonder.

4. It generally does not take too many before someone throws out a non sequitor
or moral equivalency.
