New figures show the number of abusive and violent attacks on Britain's Jewish community reached record levels in 2004
Records of anti-Semitic incidents which it defines as "any malicious act aimed at the Jewish community or Jewish individuals" have been kept by Community Security Trust (CST) since 1984. CST's Michael Whine said the increase was particularly notable for some types of offences, such as physical assaults.
It is noticeable that the targets are Jewish rather than Israeli giving a lie to the claim that these attacks are in response to Israeli actions in the Middle East.
Nearly 60% of anti-Semitic incidents - 311 - took place in the Greater London area with just under 100 being recorded in Greater Manchester.
