    Hearing on Anti-Semitism: a Growing Threat to All Faiths

    Hearing on Anti-Semitism: A Growing Threat to All Faiths House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on Africa, Global Health, Global Human Rights, and International Organizations Testimony of Andrew Srulevitch, European Affairs Director Anti-Defamation League February 27, 2013 Washington, DC Let me offer special thanks on behalf of the Anti-Defamation League and its National Director, Abraham Foxman, to Chairman Smith and all the Members of the Subcommittee for holding this hearing today and for the many hearings, letters, and rallying cries that have kept this issue front and center. Your commitment to the fight against anti-Semitism and your determination to move from concern to action inspires and energizes all of us. The history of the Jewish people is fraught with examples of the worst violations of human rights - forced conversions, expulsions, inquisitions, pogroms, and genocide. The struggle against the persecution of Jews was a touchstone for the creation of some of the foundational human rights instruments and treaties as well as the development of important regional human rights mechanisms like the human dimension commitments of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE). We focus today on anti-Semitism but we are mindful that, in advancing the fight against anti- Semitism, we elevate the duty of governments to comply with broader human rights commitments and norms. That is the core of ADL’s mission: to secure justice and fair treatment for Jews in tandem with safeguarding the rights of all groups. Anti-Semitism is a primary concern for the Anti-Defamation League – not just because we are a Jewish community organization, but because anti-Semitism, the oldest and most persistent form of prejudice, threatens security and democracy, and poisons the health of a society as a whole.

    ANNUAL REPORT 2015 Cover : Deportation wagon, Auschwitz-Birkenau 1 Defending our values In 2015, a series of attacks by Islamists plunged France into mourning. Our values and our way of life were targeted and—once again—Jews were singled out. As we commemorate the seventieth anniversary of the liberation of the Nazi camps, as we remember this victory of the civilized world over barbarity, new barbarians have brought bloodshed to our streets, killing in cold blood in the name of an ideology of hate. In the face of these horrors, we cannot give in to fear nor to the temp- tation to withdraw, but must do everything in our power to defend our model of tolerance and liberty. As part of its mission and to the best of its ability, the Foundation for the Memory of the Shoah aims to con- tribute to this combat. We have therefore bolstered our support in the combat against anti-Semitism and we will obviously continue to support education and knowledge of history. Today, more than ever, we want to transmit forcefully and with determination a message of fraternity from the survivors of the Shoah. Within this difficult context, the Foundation also intends to work with its partners to build the future of French Judaism. In 2015, we implemented an exceptional allocation of €10 million over three years so as to contrib- ute significantly to the financing of major projects. The goal is to support initiatives geared to strengthening French Judaism, with a particular fo- cus on educational and cultural projects. In opposition to those who would like to undermine the foundations of our society, we want to defend the shared values of Judaism and the Republic at one and the same time.

    EUROPE AND THE JEWS 2012: DRAMATIC RISE IN ANTI-JEWISH, ANTI-ISRAEL PREJUDICE A Simon Wiesenthal Center Special Report by Dr. Harold Brackman March 22, 2012 From Toulouse to Riga: A mourner at the Ozar Hatorah Jewish school, Toulouse, France SWC’s Dr. Efraim Zuroff, with anti-Nazi activists protesting a Waffen-SS march in Riga, Latvia www.wiesenthal.com ACTION ALERT: TIME WARP MARCH 2012 The year is 2012, but the echoes are of 1933 to 1945: • Not far from the Holocaust Memorial in Toulouse with an inscription reading, “Where is Your Brother?” - Yonathan Sandler, a teacher from Jerusalem, together with his two children Aryeh, age 6, and Gavriel, age 3, and 8-year-old Miriam Monstango, the daughter of the principal of Ozar Hatorah school, are dead, victims of a moped-driving, masked, black-helmeted assassin, trained by the Taliban and claiming to belong to Al Qaeda, later identified as Muhammad Merah, who used a cell phone to film the attack. Merah previously employed the same weapon to gun down four French soldiers, killing three of North African origin. European Union High Representative for Foreign Affairs Catherine Ashton linked the murder of French Jews in Toulouse to “what is happening in Gaza” before repudiating her remark. • An incommensurate event, yet not insignificant, occurred weeks before, in Kaiserslautern, Germany, as soccer teams trained for June EURO 2012 in Poland and Ukraine, the Simon Wiesenthal Center protested to the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) the anti-Semitic outburst—including “Seig Heil” salutes, “Heil Hitler” and chants of “Join the 6 million”—directed at Itay Schechter, the son of Holocaust Survivors from Romania.

  • North Africa

    North Africa

    North Africa ALGERIA REMIER MENDES-FRANCE'S solemn proclamation of Tunisian autonomy on P August 1, 1954, set off a great wave of hope, and to some extent of impatience as well, among the Moslem nationalists of all North Africa. The triumph of the Neo-Destour in Tunisia was a preface to fundamental struc- tural changes in all North Africa. The tragic events which took place in Morocco on August 4, 1954, when six Jews at Petitjean were frightfully mutilated and burnt by Moslem rioters, gave some idea of the impatience aroused by the recent reforms introduced by France. When he heard of the events in Tunisia, the Algerian nationalist leader Ferhat Abbas sent Premier Mendes-France a telegram from Cairo, where he was a refugee, declaring that the Algerian people confidently hailed Mendes- France's coming to power and hoped that Algeria also would be included in the program of reforms which he was carrying out. Algeria posed sociological problems which were on the whole identical with those of Morocco and Tunisia, as well as of those other African coun- tries (South Africa, Kenya, Tanganyika, Uganda) where the interests of the European colonists were coming into conflict with the interests of the natives. Nevertheless, Algerian nationalism had developed along a different path from those of the Neo-Destour Party in Tunis and the Istiqlal Party in Morocco. Messali Hadj's Popular Party and Ferhat Abbas's Democratic Union of the Manifesto had been active only underground; on the surface there had been complete peace. Only occasional police measures had been neces- sary.
