A young woman and her baby were attacked on a train near Paris by a group of anti-Semites. Six attackers armed with knives tore off the woman’s clothes, cut her hair, drew three swastikas on her stomach and overturned a baby carriage holding the woman’s 13-month-old child last Friday, police said. Police said the men, described as of North African origin, believed incorrectly that the woman was Jewish.
