EU 'covered up' attacks on Jews by young Muslims By Ambrose Evans-Pritchard in Brussels (Filed: 01/04/2004) Jewish leaders accused the European Union yesterday of covering up the true scale of anti-Semitic violence carried out by Muslim youths, reigniting a controversy over Europe's failure to confront Islamic extremism at home.
