Photo: DPAJews in Germany say they feel a "growing threat" of anti-Semitism, especially from Muslims but also from xenophobic far-right groups, a parliamentary report said Monday. They are "increasingly concerned for their safety due to everyday experiences of anti-Semitism," said the Independent Experts Group on Anti-Semitism. "While the non-Jewish majority does not see current manifestations of anti-Semitism as a relevant problem, Jews in Germany feel they are facing a growing threat," it said. And it recommended the appointment of an ombudsperson for anti-Semitism and better nationwide coordination on fighting the problem. It also called for study into anti-Muslim discrimination and other prejudices, finding that "these attitudes overlap with anti-Semitic attitudes".
