Josef Schuster warns of new anti-Semitism by refugees

Thursday, June 30, 2016

Munich - The President of the Central Council of Jews in Germany, Josef Schuster has warned of a new anti-Semitism by the influx of refugees.

"The refugees seeking in such large numbers since last year with us refuge, come predominantly from countries that have been enemies deeply with Israel," said Schuster on Tuesday evening in Munich, according to pre-spread speech manuscript. "Who has grown up with such an enemy, it does not specify just from crossing the border."


Even now there is among young Muslims in Germany a fairly pronounced antisemitism. From the immigration feared Jews in Germany, for example, more anti-Semitic rallies. Refugees who did not know religious freedom of their countries of origin, would "internalize, that human dignity is universal, even for Jews."

The Catholic Academy of Bavaria had "today Jewish Life in Germany" invited Schuster about to Munich.
