Balkan Jewish conference discusses threat of anti-Zionism


Via Haaretz:

Hundreds of Jews from the Balkan states met recently in Montenegro for a first conference of its kind.

Most said they do not suffer from antisemitism but there were some Jews who disagreed.  One presented a 4th grade schoolbook from the Republika Srpska (Serbian repbulic in Bosnia) which says that the "Jews are a shitty nation and violated the Ten Commandments".  A representative from Macedonia asked "Are we brave enough to deal with the antisemitism, or it's better to stay silent and thereby show our loyalty to our countries?"

All representatives were concerned about the new antisemitism (ie, anti-Zionism), and it was extensively discussed at the conference.
