• W227395529 abstract "SAY THAT YOU'RE a Jew, Marinus Schoberl's tormentors are supposed to have demanded as they beat him. As of this writing, three young men--the brothers MarcelS. and Marco S., 18 and 24 years old respectively, and their friend Sebastien F., also 18--are on trial in Neuruppin, Germany for the murder of the then-16-year-old Marinus near the small eastern German town of Potzlow in July 2002. None of the accused disputes his involvement, and the prosecution's reconstruction of the events leading to Marinus's death is based largely on the boys' own confessions. Marinus was not in fact Jewish, but various markers of otherness--the fact that the teenager stuttered, that wore baggy hip hop pants, perhaps most importantly that his hair was dyed blond--were apparently sufficient to convince his three assailants that was or might be. They wanted to create for themselves the image of an enemy, Thomas Weichelt, the lawyer for Marinus's parents, has observed. A local district attorney told the Berliner Zeitung that the cruelty displayed in Marinus's murder represents a new dimension even for hard-baked prosecutors. After having forced him to drink alcohol until inebriated, beaten him unconscious, and then urinated on him, the trio of assailants dragged Marinus to a nearby abandoned stable. There, having ordered Marinus to bite the side of a concrete feeding trough, Marcel S. stomped on the back of Marinus's head with his combat boots. After Marinus, nonetheless, apparently survived this maneuver, Marcel S. crushed his skull with a concrete slab. In a statement given to the police, another witness, Nicole B., reported that Marcel S. would later describe Marinus as a shitty Jew and remark that as such he didn't deserve any different. (1) The Potzlow case is significant in several respects, not the least of which is that it will likely be entirely unknown to my readers. It has of late become common for liberal commentators to charge that reports of European anti-Semitism are greatly exaggerated, part of yet another vast right-wing conspiracy fostered by powerful media moguls (read Rupert Murdoch and Conrad Black) and designed to delegitimize European support of the Palestinian cause and deflect European criticisms of Israel. In fact, however, coverage in the English-language media as a whole, especially indeed the American media, has tended, if anything, to understate the true dimensions of the phenomenon. Leftist myths and leftist responsibility IN EARLY SPRING 2002, wave of anti-Jewish arson attacks swept cross France. In the most spectacular of the incidents, late on the Friday night of March 29-30, a group of 10-20 masked youths used two stolen cars as battering rams to smash through the front and side doors of the synagogue in the La Duchere section of Lyon and then, with the cars still ensconced in the building, set them ablaze. According to witnesses, as the cars caught fire, the perpetrators broke into applause. That weekend, synagogues would also be set ablaze in Strasbourg and Marseille and bullets would be fired at a kosher butcher shop in Toulouse. In the following week, at least three other synagogues--in Marseille, Montpellier, and the Kremlin-Bicetre suburb of Paris--would be the targets of Molotov cocktails (with the Montpellier attack setting on fire an adjacent building). The wooden doors of a prayer chapel in a Jewish cemetery in Strasbourg were set on fire, as was the school bus of a Jewish school in another Parisian suburb. This sudden spike in what was an already-growing trend of anti-Jewish violence in France was widely reported in the United States and even provoked some words of admonishment from President Bush. As the violence settled back into an alarmingly regular pattern, however, the interest of the English-language media waned--and this despite the fact that the more recent incidents, unlike the rash of reported violence last March and April, have included an increasing number of attacks on persons. …" @default.
