Wise By Philip S. Bernstein 51:515-18 648 / AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK, 1973 CLARIFICATIONS AND CORRECTIONS About Stuart Rosenberg's article on the Canadian Jewish community in AJYB, 1972 (Vol. 73), Mr. Sol Kanee, president of the Canadian Jewish Congress, writes: . That the 1971 Plenary Assembly of the Canadian Jewish Congress was "stormy" is a matter of opinion. What is misleading is to link this storminess with dissatisfaction with the Congress'earlier position on Soviet Jewry. There was no such opinion recorded on the floor in the debate, in our record. He [Dr. Rosenberg ] attempts to remove any credit for any reform in this system [of religion in the public schools] from the Canadian Jewish Congress and [describes] it as "more of a tribute to the growing awareness of the pluralistic religious nature of the province than to the efforts of Congress" . It is worthy of note, however, that the Report of the Keiller Mackay Committee (on religious education in the public schools of Ontario) was in language and spirit and in its specific recommendations extremely close, almost parallel, to the brief we submitted in 1967. We acknowledge that Congress grudgingly accepted the high school world religions course. ... it does not replace the 1944 Protestant-oriented course. It cannot replace it by definition since, as its name plainly shows . it is a high school course and the former is an elementary school course. Besides, ... the 1944 elementary school course in religion is still on the books and therefore we face not one, but two courses in religion. Dr. Rosenberg fails to mention Manitoba. There the Canadian Jewish Congress has favored asking for government funds for Jewish schools and has asked for this in a brief. Rabbi Rosenberg fails to note that the Premier, Mr. Schreyer, favors it too and that the opposition within the cabinet, including the three Jewish cabinet members, almost precipitated a cabinet crisis. ... in remaining neutral (not in "lining up against such aid") the CJC in Ontario is not bowing to lethargy or giving in to indifference, or expressing opposition to Jewish day school education, but is recognizing that there is a sizable and respectable weight of opinion in Ontario Jewry that does not want or seek government aid for its day schools—at one point in the past, 50% of our community. There are, within the leadership of Congress, men and women who favor government aid. Those working for such an end prefer to work for it outside of Congress, realizing that Congress can act only where there is a preponderant consensus. At this point such a preponderant consensus does not exist. And by the evidence of the provincial election of 1971 cited by Dr. Rosenberg, the consensus in the community at large is preponderantly opposed to this. CLARIFICATIONS AND CORRECTIONS / 649 ... On kashrut in penal institutions, Congress has recently made more progress than applies in probably any country in the world (Israel, of course. e»cepted). In the province of Ontario (in provincial institutions) any Jewish prisoner can be provided with regular kosher food. ... In religious broadcasting the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation has had two Jewish representatives on its Religious Advisory Committee for several years, named by Canadian Jewish Congress. ... he states that on all these matters "there was no real agreement." Among whom? Does he mean internal agreement within our own Jewish ranks or agreement from the authorities and others in respect to penal institutions, civil service regulations, religious broadcasting, etc.? We wonder, also, what purpose is served by Dr. Rosenberg's heavy-handed sarcasm in the phrase, "the so-called national office" of the Canada-Israel Committee. Does this touch add anything to the validity of his contribution? . The Canada-Israel Committee was in operation at the time Rabbi Rosenberg wrote his piece and has been functioning ever since. It has a full-time director with a varied and imaginative program. In discussing the Ontario Provincial Parliament, Rabbi Rosenberg omits to mention the Leader of the New Democratic Party, Mr. Stephen Lewis, who is a member of the Jewish community. The following is excerpted from a reply by Dr. Rosenberg: 1. Even the CJC Bulletin refers to the plenary sessions in 1971 as "stormy." So did the Canadian Jewish News, and many of my close associates who were in attendance told me the same thing. Mr. Kanee says that this is not in the official record. Some things rarely get put down in an "official record," precisely because it is official. Mr. Kanee, as president of CJC, can hardly be objective. Nor is he a scholar—with all due respect to him, as a fine human being and Jew. On the other hand, scores of delegates from Toronto, particularly young people, told me after the convention that they objected not only to what they saw as the inactivity of Congress on the issue of Soviet Jewry, but also to its political and cultural lag generally. Indeed, the very fact that shortly after that convention CJC took steps to appoint a director (still not full-time, by the way) for efforts on behalf of Soviet Jewry—long before undertaken on their own by other Canadian Jewish groups—proves that the convention had indeed shaken up the CJC leadership. That is precisely the import of my statement that CJC's "stand on Soviet Jewry . become positive and more activist. ..." 2. I did not withhold credit from CJC for any reform in the system of religion in the public schools. I looked at the total Canadian political-cultural scene rather than at 650 / AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK, 1973 CJC alone. Changes in Canadian Jewish life are attributable not only to CJC and its leadership, but also to changes in milieu and thinking. If all that is needed is to sit back and wait for "consensus," why a Canadian Jewish Congress? I have in my possession declarations signed by almost 10,000 Jewish families in Ontario who support provincial aid to Jewish day schools—and this without a high-power campaign or newspaper ads, but simply by word of mouth.

  • ENGLISH Original: RUSSIAN Delegation of the Russian Federation
    PC.DEL/97/18 1 February 2018 ENGLISH Original: RUSSIAN Delegation of the Russian Federation STATEMENT BY MR. ALEXANDER LUKASHEVICH, PERMANENT REPRESENTATIVE OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION, AT THE 1174th MEETING OF THE OSCE PERMANENT COUNCIL 1 February 2018 In response to the address by the Chair of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance Mr. Chairperson, I should like to take this opportunity to express our support for the successful OSCE conference on anti-Semitism, which was held in Rome on 29 January. Mr. Galizia, We thank you for your insightful address. Seventy-three years ago Red Army soldiers liberated the Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp, also known as Oświęcim. In 2005, the United Nations officially proclaimed 27 January International Day of Commemoration in Memory of the Victims of the Holocaust. I should also like to recall that on 27 January we marked the 74th anniversary of the complete liberation of Leningrad from the Nazi siege. This was yet another act of heroism by Soviet soldiers, before whom we bow our heads. Soviet troops brought a halt to one of the “death factories” in which up to 4 million people, including around a million Jews, had been systematically exterminated. All told, more than 6 million people became victims of the Holocaust. For the peoples of Russia, as for the other peoples of the multi-ethnic Soviet Union, who sacrificed more than 26 million lives for victory in the Second World War, the preservation of the historical memory of these terrible events remains a national responsibility. Jews themselves made a significant contribution to the victory over Nazism.

Putin's Chosen People: Theories of Russian Jewish Policy, 2000-2017 Abstract Despite support from and for right-wing elements and a deep-seeded national history of anti-Semitism, the policies of the Russian government under Vladimir Putin have been markedly devoid of anti-Semitism. Appeals to nationalist, imperialist, and Eurasianist ideologies, pragmatic politics, and foreign policy concerns fail to explain these policies adequately. The biography of Putin himself, which includes influential, positive relationships with Jews, provides a better explanation. The personalized influence of the president on Jewish policy suggests a personalized, hyper-centralized regime generally. Keywords anti-Semitism, Jews, Russia, Putin,
