Argentine Jewish Community

NPR's Tom Gjelten reports from Buenos Aires that though its Jewish community is one of the largest outside of Israel, it continues to live in fear of anti-Semitism. Twice in the past five years, Jewish institutions have been the targets of bloody attacks and none of these crimes has ever been solved. Argentina's Jews maintain that the local police fail to protect their community.
