"The first time #YossefMurciano truly understood the meaning of #antisemitism was when he was 15 years old.
It was March 19, 2012, and as students gathered for morning prayers at #OzarHatorah school in #Paris, news spread that an Islamist #terrorist had attacked this school in #Toulouse, murdering a teacher, his two young sons, ages three and five, and an eight-year-old girl.
“Some people came into the #synagogue and said that we had to lock ourselves in a safe place because they didn’t know if other schools would be attacked,” recalls #Murciano, today president of the Union of #French #Jewish Students (#UEJF).
“The day after, we already had the army and police protecting our school. After that, I can hardly remember a moment when there was no police or army in front of Jewish schools and religious institutions.”
For Murciano’s generation, armed guards, security barriers, and military patrols were not extraordinary measures. They were part of everyday Jewish life."
