I've visited a few countries in Europe.. Sweden was anti-Christian, forget about anti-Semitic. I don't think they know enough about Christianity to know anything about Jews. I visited the church of Sweden in Stockholm on a Sunday, and the church was almost empty. I spoke to the priest there, he said it's been like that for years. Now Ari, you said that your friend visited Italy, which part? Because many northern Italians (especially in Milano and Rome) are extreme leftists, and many are open communists. But I visited Sicily last year, they are the complete opposite. Very religious, family oriented people that support Israel 100%, and they HATE Muslims and melanzanas (eggplants:).
