Assessment
A Berlin shopkeeper was attacked after putting up posters against antisemitism for the Oct. 7 anniversary. The attackers, estimated at 10 to 15 years old, reportedly asked him whether he was Jewish. That question turns a physical assault into a targeted one, and the attackers' age raises uncomfortable questions about where this behavior is being learned. Watch for how German authorities respond and whether the incident becomes part of the broader debate over rising antisemitism.
