Katherine,

The other point is that the Jewish population of Europe is probably the most assimilated ever.There are no Ghettos,no demands for priveledged treatment,no outcry at religeous mockery,no racial sensitivities proclaimed,no demand for holidays to be observed nationally. Perhaps thats it,Jews are just not getting outraged enough,in fact we should all get a little more intolerent when our culture and our beliefs are vilified.
