The Chief Rabbi of Brussels, Albert Gigi, was violently assaulted last night by a gang of Arabic-speaking hoodlums. They kicked him in the face, spat on him, and cursed him. An announcement by the Jewish community there expressed \"shock and concern\" at the incident, noting that racist and anti-Semitic acts of this nature have increased of late. The Jewish Community lays the responsibility for this phenomenon at the doorstep of Belgium\'s press, which \"has published expressions of hatred for the State of Israel.\"
