Germany: Muslims accuse Jews of using antisemitism to "to divert attention from the war crimes of the Israeli government"

Frankfurt's Jewish community has quit a state interfaith council over allegedly antisemitic and anti-Israel statements by local Muslim leaders, some of whom are members of the inter-religious panel. 

Among other offending statements, a press release from the Islamic Religious Association of Hessen accused the Central Council of Jews in Germany of using the issue of antisemitism in Europe "to divert attention from the war crimes of the Israeli government".
