LONDON (Reuters) The number of recorded anti-Semitic incidents in Britain soared in the first six months of this year compared with 2014, probably due to a surge in reporting among fearful Jews, a report by a Jewish community body said on Thursday (July 30).
There were 473 recorded incidents between January and June this year including two classified as "extreme violence", said the Community Security Trust, which advises Britain's estimated 260,000 Jews on security.
BAGHDAD (AP) — The dimly lit, dust-caked stacks of the Baghdad National Library hide a treasure of the ages: crinkled, yellowing papers holding the true stories of sultans and kings; imperialists and socialists; occupation and liberation; war and peace.
