PARIS, France - There has been a call for vigilance in France after an assault on a Jewish boy, the latest anti-Semitic incident reported since the Toulouse massacre.Teenagers punched the boy, 12, in the back of the head and beat him, calling him a "dirty Jew" in the attack near a Jewish school in south-eastern Paris.
Jean-Paul Amoyelle, head of the Ozar Hatorah network of Jewish schools in France, said he feared further attacks.
The Jewish school attacked in Toulouse has reportedly received hate mail.- Several emails are said to have been sent to the school four days after the massacre on 19 March, when Islamist gunman Mohamed Merah shot dead three small children and a teacher, as well as seriously wounding a schoolboy.
The messages warned that the shooting was only "a beginning", the French newspaper Le Parisien says.The emails were reportedly signed "the Justiciar of France" and "real French people" - suggesting the work of extreme nationalists, rather than Islamists.
