Israel's ambassador considers "left-wing anti-Semitism" to be more dangerous.
Berlin – The Israeli ambassador to Germany, Ron Prosor, has issued a stark warning about left-wing antisemitism in Germany. He stated that it is more dangerous than right-wing antisemitism and more dangerous than Islamist antisemitism "because it conceals its intentions," as he told the newspapers of the Funke Media Group (Sunday editions). In Germany, he said, "we know very well, both politically and legally, how to combat right-wing antisemitism." Islamist antisemitism is also extremely dangerous, he added, "because it undermines the democratic order like a Trojan horse. However, we are learning to deal with it," Prosor said. But left-wing antisemitism "always operates on the border between freedom of expression and freedom of incitement – ​​and has now clearly crossed that line. That is why, for me, left-wing antisemitism is the most dangerous," the ambassador said. He noted that this is evident in universities and theaters across Europe. "People present themselves as educated, morally and politically correct. But the red line of what is protected by freedom of speech has long since been crossed." Day after day, Israel is demonized and delegitimized, "and the consequences are felt by all Jews." It is still a scandal that an Israeli conductor was disinvited from a festival in Belgium, "but the boundaries of what can be said are shifting," Prosor said.
