The police chief in Germany’s capital is urging Jews and gay people to “be vigilant” while traversing certain Arab-majority neighborhoods, warning many of them contain pockets of antisemitism and residents who harbor support for terrorist groups. “There are areas of the city, we need to be perfectly honest here, where I would advise people who wear a kippah or are openly gay to be more careful,” Berlin top cop Barbara Slowik told a German newspaper. “In many major cities, you should be vigilant in certain public places to protect yourself from any kind of crime,” she warned.
