Anti-Semitic crimes rose by 20% in Germany last year.

"I cannot advise Jews to wear the kippah everywhere all the time in Germany," Felix Klein said in an interview published on Saturday by the Funke regional press group.Klein, whose post was created last year, cited"the lifting of inhibitions and the uncouthness which is on the rise in society" as factors behind a rising incidence of anti-Semitism.

"The internet and social media have largely contributed to this - but so have constant attacks against our culture of remembrance." And he suggested police, teachers and lawyers should be better trained to recognise what constitutes"clearly defined" unacceptable behaviour and"what is authorised and what is not".

His comments came just weeks after Berlin's top legal expert on anti-semitism said the issue remains entrenched in German society. "Anti-Semitism has always been here. But I think that recently, it has again become louder, more aggressive and flagrant," Claudia Vanoni told AFP in an interview, adding the problem was"deeply rooted" in German society.
