"Europe is facing an enormous challenge of reacting to racial tensions as we witness the rise of both anti-Semitism and Islamophobia.
At a time when tensions are running high, our duty is to stand up to closed-minded prejudices, and we must remember not to lose ourselves in statistics but to tackle the real causes of these problems.
While attitudes towards Muslims are negative across Europe, we’ve also seen anti-Jewish sentiment growing steadily and it has to be addressed. We need to be vigilant within our communities and not allow for anti-Jewish sentiments to develop just as much as we need to protect Muslims from damaging anti-Islam discourse.
It should also be noted that the European Network Against Racism has called on the European Parliament to create a database to assess the rise of Islamophobia as we lack statistics on this, while legal tools have been created in various Member States to fight against anti-Semitism. We must collate all evidence of all hate crime on the same basis if we are to tackle all such prejudice effectively."@en1
