Belgian company won’t insure Jewish kindergarten
A Belgian insurance company is refusing to insure a Jewish kindergarten for fear that it will be attacked by anti-Semites, Israel Radio reports. The kindergarten is part of a network of educational facilities sponsored by the European Jewish Association.
The association’s head, Rabbi Menachem Margolin, says the insurance company’s decision is “shameful” and that European countries are obligated to maintain security arrangements that will satisfy insurance companies, or initiate an alternative insurance plan that will enable institutions facing anti-Semitic threats to operate normally.
