Hitler didn’t need a Jew to be wearing a kippah.
Wear a kippah proudly and show your strength. We are not victims anymore. Jews are no longer “gun-free zones.”
German Chancellor Angela Merkel has warned that every synagogue and Jewish school across the country needs constant police protection amid a rise in anti-Semitism in Germany and across much of Europe.
In an interview with CNN, Merkel noted that the historic strain of anti-Semitism in Germany necessitated state protection of Jewish citizens to this day. Her warning came just days after a government minister urged Jews not to wear a kippah—a traditional Jewish cap—in public in case they were targeted by anti-Semites.
Merkel told CNN that Germany has “always had a certain number of anti-Semites among us, unfortunately.” She added, “There is to this day not a single synagogue, not a single daycare center for Jewish children, not a single school for Jewish children that does not need to be guarded by German policemen.”
