There is a story in the Times from yesterday about plagiarism by the Chief Rabbi of France. But suddenly at the end of the article, the New York Times inserted this: "The turmoil comes at a time when organizations that monitor anti-Semitic
episodes in France and Europe generally say that such incidents are on
the rise. The American Jewish Committee
has publicized a recent report by Tel Aviv University’s Center for the
Study of Contemporary European Jewry that recorded what it terms 686
anti-Semitic attacks in Europe in 2012, compared with 526 in 2011,
including physical violence and vandalism of synagogues and Jewish
cemeteries." What does this have to do with the story of plagiarism? Is the implication that any reference to the plagiarism is anti-Semitic?
