    Central and Eastern Europe Germany National Affairs X. JLALFWAY THROUGH Chancellor Gerhard Schroder's four-year term it was clear that his Red-Green coalition—his own Social Democratic Party (SPD) together with the environmentalist Greens—had succeeded in co-opting the traditional agenda of the opposition Christian Democrats (CDU), leaving the opposition without a substantial issue. The government accomplished this by moving to the political center, primarily through a set of pro-business tax cuts that were expected to spur the economy. The conservative opposition was also handicapped by scandal. Former chan- cellor Helmut Kohl shocked the nation at the end of 1999 by refusing to clarify his role in the CDU's financial irregularities, and in January 2000 he resigned as honorary chairman of the party. The affair continued to get headlines through- out 2000 as more illegal payments during the Kohl years came to light. All that Kohl himself would acknowledge was his personal receipt of some $1 million not accounted for in the party's financial records, but he refused to name the donors. Considering his "word of honor" not to divulge the source of the money more important than the German law requiring him to do so, he compared his treat- ment by the German mass media to the Nazi boycott of Jewish stores during the Hitler regime. Most observers believed that Kohl would end up paying a fine and would not serve any jail time. The Kohl scandal triggered an internal party upheaval. Wolfgang Schauble, Kohl's successor as CDU leader, admitted in February that he too had taken un- reported campaign contributions, and was forced to resign.

    EUROPEAN CANTORS ASSOCIATION The future of synagogue music Patrons: Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis Cantors Naftali Herstik, Joseph Malovany Convenor: Alex Klein. CEE Branch Head: David Schwezoff Annual Meeting of the European Cantors Association Friday 11 July 2014. 13.20 Bethlen Square Synagogue Budapest Agenda 1. Present 2. Apologies 3. Annual Report including Newsletter and financial reports 4. Appointment of Newsletter editor and other roles 5. The future – Discussion as to what each chazzan will do in his own area and environment and how ECA can help? 6. AOB The European Cantors Association (ECA) was launched by Cantor Joseph Malovany in July 2012 in Manchester at the 7th annual European Cantors Convention. • ECA was created as a framework within which cantors themselves can work individually and together to raise their profile and standing in the community. • This has inspired and enabled cantors to become active in working with the younger generation, engaging in meaningful dialogue with rabbis and lay synagogue leadership and arranging study days and conventions to improve their skills and knowledge. • The ECA slogans are ‘the future of synagogue music’ and ‘no more blame, let’s get on with the game’. Cantors today realise that unless they take the viability of their future into their own hands, the timeless and traditional cantorial music loved by centuries of Jews may be lost forever. Membership £10 (or $15 or E15) per annum. Download Membership Form ECA Annual Report - July 2013 – June 2014 Convenor of ECA Alex Klein would like to thank Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis, Chief Rabbi of the UK and Commonwealth (who became a Patron in 2014) and his office for their support and encouragement in all that ECA is doing to teach and encourage nusach hatefilla in synagogues in the UK and Europe.

    SIMON WIESENTHAL CENTER wiesenthal.com/TopTenAntiSemitic2019 #TopTenAntiSemitic2019 wiesenthal.com/TopTenAntiSemitic2019 JEREMY CORBYN-LED UK LABOUR PARTY ”How complicit in prejudice would a leader of Her Majesty’s opposition have to be in order to be considered 1 unfit for high office?” - Ephraim Mirvis, UK Chief Rabbi In a year awash with anti-Semitism on both sides of the Atlantic, no one has done more to mainstream anti-Semitism into the political and social life of a democracy than the Jeremy Corbyn-led Labour Party. Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis warned that anti-Jewish racism was a new poison that had taken root in the party. In the words of MP Louise Ellman, “How many Jewish members have been bullied, abused and driven out?” Members and staff who have dared to speak out against the hate were purged, but not those who declared ‘Heil Hitler’ and ’F*ck the Jews’ or ‘Jews are the problem’. No wonder a poll of the Jewish Leadership Council found that 47% of respondents said they would consider leaving the UK if Corbyn became prime minister. Postscript: The SWC released its #1 choice for its Top Ten 2019 list five days before the UK election. Corbyn’s Labour was trounced by PM Boris Johnson’s Conservative Party in the December 12th elections. Some analysts say that anti-Semitism impacted the voters. Corbyn has resigned as leader of the Labour Party. DEADLY DOMESTIC TERRORISTS TARGET JEWS IN THE US AND GERMANY 2 In Jersey City, NJ, a kosher market was the target of domestic terrorists. David Anderson and Francine Graham were adherents of the Black Hebrew Israelites hate group.
