Top Rabbi Renews Call to Arm European Jews

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.
A prominent rabbi has reiterated his calls for new legislation that would allow Jewish people in Europe to carry guns, following the attacks in Denmark this weekend in which two people were shot dead – one outside a synagogue – and accused European governments of not taking the threat of antisemitism seriously enough.
Rabbi Menachem Margolin, director general of the Rabbinical Centre of Europe (RCE) and the European Jewish Association (EJA) – the largest federation of Jewish organisations and communities in Europe – has called the shootings in Copenhagen a “very clear confirmation” that gun laws need to change.
Following the Paris attacks in mid-January, Rabbi Margolin wrote a letter, seen by Newsweek, that called on all European governments to alter gun licensing laws so that Jews could carry weapons.
