That’s only for religious based hate crimes. Or another way of saying it,
17% of all hate crimes are against Jewish people. I’d guess the other
30% of religious based hate crimes would be mostly against Muslims or black Christians in
this country
And of course the 80% of hate crimes are directed at others.
On a somewhat related topic, one of my favorite miliary historians (I have a Master’s degree in that subject) Cornell’s Barry Strauss, has just released a history of the Jewish revolts against Roman Rule.
In the past, Strauss has published on other Roman Wars, and the Trojan War.
Quote: “Historian Strauss hits another home run with this thorough account of the tumultuous relations between Rome and its most contentious subjects, the Jews, in ancient times. . . . There is no better history of this important but little-known subject.”

As stated in the article, seems like a discrimination case, and officials
seem to be taking it seriously. No idea how France processes these allegations
or what the fine would be if guilty. Perhaps the public condemnation is sufficient
and the public can boycott that recreational business.
Now on the other side of the ocean, there is a certain segment of the population
that thinks black Americans are always “overplaying the discrimination card” in
matters.
From this thread, I think most Jews believe they are now seeing increased discrimination. With the war in Gaza, and almost daily pictures of Palestinian children starving, that is probably driving much of the new anti-Jewish reactions plus the long standing anti-Jewish groups that have always hated Jews.
I’d be curious if transgender, lgbtq, women, black and hispanic Americans also sense an increase in discrimination.
Oddly enough, recent Pew study draws this conclusion.
Americans are also less likely to say Muslims and Jews face discrimination than a year ago. The shares saying Muslims (34%) and Jews (30%) experience a lot of discrimination are down 10 points from early last year.
