Antisemitic robbers target Jewish family near Paris
Source: The Guardian
A Jewish family was beaten, held hostage and robbed in their home near Paris because of their religion, French authorities and anti-hate groups said on Sunday.
Three attackers burst into the house in the Paris suburb of Livry-Gargan late on Thursday, cut off the electricity and confined three members of a Jewish family, beating them and threatening to kill them, until one of them managed to escape and alert the police, said antisemitism watchdog BNVCA.
It said the assailants told the three victims: “You are Jews, you have money. We take money from Jews to give to the poor.”
One of the victims was Roger Pinto, the 78-year-old head of Siona, an association “defending the Jewish people and the state of Israel,” Pinto’s lawyer, Marc Bensimon, said.
Pinto was kicked several times in the head and throat, Bensimon said. The other two victims were Pinto’s wife, who managed to sound the alarm, and Pinto’s son.

Gee, attacking Jews because "they have money", it is almost as if people think there is a link to Jews and money, which is why we hear "their religion is money" is an acceptable form of attack for certain Jews.

What is "surprising" is how some have forgotten how Google works, given that LBN doesn't require multiple sources, just the one. Also, "surprising" is the 'concern' about something not in the story as opposed to the actual story itself. Makes me wonder what the actual implication is, such as, maybe the story isn't real. Of course, as always, like the rising of the sun, some can never just condemn anti-Semitism without a "shoutout" to Israel. 
The more things change...
