This article discusses how worries about anti-Semitism in Europe clouded the commemoration of the liberation of Auschwitz. "Never again" was the message of political leaders gathering this week in Auschwitz to mark the 60th anniversary of its liberation, including heads of state from France, Germany, Russia, Poland and Israel. It was the message many sent in their own countries. "Remember," said President Jacques Chirac, as he unveiled a Shoah Memorial in Paris that features a wall engraved with 76,000 names of those sent to their deaths from France, "Do not forget." The ceremony comes at a time of rising anti-Semitism in Europe. In recent years there has been a rise in frequency and severity of anti-Semitic crimes. How bad is anti-Semitism in Europe today? The number of incidents recorded in the Israeli report jumped by 20% in 2004.
