#Palestine-Israel / Israel abandons diaspora Jews' fight against real antisemitism to join forces with Europes’s antisemitic and islamophobic far right
Israel’s Diaspora Affairs Ministry (Amichai Chikli) is inviting representatives from parties with histories of #antisemitism and current Islamophobic positions to a conference specifically about combating antisemitism, titled The International Conference on Combating Antisemitism, further undermining the credibility of frameworks like the #IHRA definition.
Shared Islamophobia is becoming a unifying factor between Israel's government and European far-right movements, previously rejected by Jewish communities as antisemitic or Neo-Nazi.
Jordan #Bardella leads France's anti-Muslim National Rally, founded by #holocaust denier Jean-Marie Le Pen's; Hermann Tertsch comes from Spain's #Vox party, known for inflammatory anti-immigration rhetoric; Charlie Weimers represents #Sweden Democrats with its neo-Nazi origins; Marion Maréchal, Le Pen's granddaughter, has aligned with extreme right movements; and Kinga Gál represents Hungary's #Fidesz party, criticized for antisemitic dog whistles in campaigns against George Soros while promoting strong anti-Muslim policies.
