Jews Warned Not to Wear Religious Symbols in Denmark
(AFP) Israel's ambassador to Denmark, Arthur Avnon, said Wednesday: "We advise Israelis who come to Denmark and want to go to the synagogue to wait to don their skull caps until they enter the building and not to wear them in the street." Visitors were also advised not to "speak Hebrew loudly" or demonstrably wear Star of David jewelry. The Jewish Belief Center received 37 reports of anti-Jewish incidents this year, predominantly in the heavily immigrant Noerrebro neighborhood and around the Jewish synagogue in central Copenhagen.
