Again, I'm not saying I know this to be the case, because obviously us civvies are not given information detailed enough to make that call. I'm just saying it's feasible. And that Jews being threatened isn't any "sadder" than Muslim being threatened, if those being threatened are innocent. And let's not pretend that innocent Muslim people havent been attacked and threatened across Europe in the last week.

And they might not be artificially stepping up the level, and it's real threat.

The day Muslims in this country are so threatened that their community is given an armed guard, them my thoughts will be with them. The Jews are being threatened with bombs and guns. The Muslim community in this country are potentially being targeted by some brain-dead knuckle-draggers who don't understand the difference between being a Muslim and being a terrorist.
