I think most of us are either still in denial or we simply don’t know what to say. Something like this takes a bit of time to sink in.
As for me, I honestly don’t know what to say.
Selfishly said, though, I am glad I made the decision to move to Gateshead from E”Y. When I was looking to leave E”Y I had job opportunities in, among others, Marseille, Prague, Dublin and Newcastle. I chose to go for the Newcastle one (FYI, Newcastle = Gateshead, like NYC = Newark but much closer and tighter) because I knew France is much more problematic with the Arabs there. Besides, what is an Ashkenazi shtreimel-wearer going to do between the Moroccans. (No insult intended, I know many Moroccans and have absolutely NOTHING against them – but I think everyone understands what I mean.)
Anyway, I decided against Marseille because I feared such things would happen. I guess I was right.
