In a broadcast on Mayadeen TV, Iraqi historian and archaeologist Ali Al-Nashmi said that there was an international Jewish mafia that aimed to acquire Iraqi antiquities. Valid Al-As’ad, director of Palmyra Museum, contributed his view that Jews wanted to destroy Palmyra in order to erase the memory of their Babylonian exile.
Fans of FSV Union Fürstenwalde reportedly started shouting “Jew Berlin” at a rival club which they had just beaten in a match. One account of the incident said that fans also abused a member of staff, shouting “You Jew”.
A man has assaulted a girl at a youth centre’s Oktoberfest celebration in Adelsberg. As a group of five or six children standing by the bratwurst stand introduced themselves to each other, a 31-year-old man standing nearby aggressively approached them. He grabbed a 16-year-old girl by the hair and asked what the origin of her name was, shouting “You Jew!” Witnesses restrained the man so that the girl could escape. She has now filed a police report.

A Ku Klax Klan member identified as James in a BBC Three documentary emphatically claims that Nazi concentration camps were in fact “summer camps” for Jews. He said: “Adolf Hitler was one of the smartest men there ever was. At these death camps they gave the so-called people that were being killed cigarettes, there was coffee, there was a movie theater, there was a library, and even a swimming pool in Auschwitz. If you’re going to sit there and kill all these people then how come all these things would be in there, it’s more like a summer camp.”

Police in Minquadale, Delaware are hunting vandals who damaged almost 20 headstones in Machzikey Hadas Cemetery. The damaged caused exceeds $1,500 in value, making the crime a felony. Police are seeking surveillance footage.
Posters inspired by the Ku Klax Klan have been found in Niterói, Brazil. The posters threaten “communists, homosexuals, Jews, Muslims, blacks, antifascists, drug dealers, pedophiles and anarchists.” One poster said: “We will hunt anyone who wishes to hurt our country and its citizens. We have been working in the shadows more than you, so don’t underestimate what you don’t know.”

The Hungarian Free Press reports that Géza Szőcs, a Romanian poet appointed Hungary’s Secretary of State for Culture in 2010, has spoken at Göteborg Book Fair. The HFP article said that a small protest was held at the book fair over Szőcs’s past promotion of antisemitic writers and a fellow panellist voiced her dismay at having to share a platform with Szőcs.
As Hungarian Secretary of State for Culture, HFP said that Szőcs made antisemitic writers part of the required public school curriculum. He reportedly visited and praised Albert Wass, a convicted Nazi war criminal whose writings included a short story in which Jews were portrayed as a plague of rats invading the home of a good farmer.
Szőcs also apparently participated in attempts to rebury Hungarian fascist ideologue József Nyirő who called for Hungary to be “cleansed of Jewish and cosmopolitan influences.” The attendance of top Hungarian politicians at a ceremony for Nyirő prompted Elie Wiesel to return an award he had been given by the Hungarian government.
In yet another arson attack on Jewish sites in Ukraine, arsonists set fire to a prayer room at a Jewish cemetery in Colomye, Prykarpattia. Police were first on the scene and extinguished the fire. The local Jewish community has offered a reward for information leading to an arrest.
Arsenal fans at a football match against Tottenham Hotspur played at White Hart Lane reportedly chanted “Back to Auschwitz you go” in the middle of a police escort. Whilst the police have reportedly taken action against vandals at the match, no action has apparently been taken against the “handful” of fans chanting antisemitic abuse.
About a dozen Arsenal fans singing about Auschwitz bang in the middle of police escort. Police ignore it… @metpoliceuk @kickitout

A Greek minister, Dimitris Kammenos, has been forced to resign hours after being appointed. The announcement that the Independent Greeks party member would join the government sparked an outcry over antisemitic tweets sent from his official Twitter account, which has now been closed. One tweet on the anniversary of 9/11 said “And let’s not forget that among the 2,500 Jews working at the Twin Towers not one went to work that day.” Kammenos has also been accused of denigrating the Holocaust by comparing the EU to the Nazis on several occasions and claiming that Greece was going through an “economic Holocaust”.
An antisemitic letter was sent to the Institute for Jewish Adult Education in Vienna calling for the reopening of the gas chambers. Many of the six million European Jews murdered by the Nazis were killed using gas.

Police in New York are investigating two shootings in which orthodox Jewish men were targeted with non-lethal ball bearing guns. In one incident a 28-year-old man was shot in the back on the way home from synagogue in Queens and required medical attention. In another incident in the same area, a 25-year-old man walking to synagogue was shot in the leg suffering similar wounds as the first victim.

Munich’s famous Haus der Kunst has been defaced with swastikas and other antisemitic graffiti. The graffiti was included four swastikas scrawled at the entrance as the gallery was opening an exhibition critical of Nazi-era art and examining the building’s own origins as part of the Nazi propaganda machine.
The official programme for the BBC’s flagship Proms summer music festival contained an antisemitic caricature.
Leopold Auer was a famous Hungarian Jewish violinist to whom numerous pieces of music were dedicated, including a piece by Tchaikovsky. The BBC Proms programme included Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto and to illustrate it, the BBC used a caricature of Auer — Tchaikovsky dedicated his Violin Concerto to Auer but changed it to Brodsky after Auer suggested revisions. The caricature featured Auer as a ghoulish figure with an enormous hooked nose.
The caricature used may well have been licensed from the Lebrecht Library, which lists the drawing as an “antisemitic caricature”. If the BBC did indeed purchase the rights to use the image from the Lebrecht collection, it is hard to imagine that they could have missed the description of the caricature.
In response to Twitter users who demanded answers, the BBC said: “We use a range of caricatures and illustrations in our concert programmes and wanted one of Leopold Auer. We’re sorry to anyone who was offended by the image choice — this was never our intention.”
Campaign Against Antisemitism has issued a call to action.
In response to the outcry over Ann Coulter’s tweet that Republican presidential candidates were pandering to “f—ing Jews”, the #IStandWithAnn hashtag has emerged on Twitter, unleashing a torrent of antisemitism. See our short video for more.

Egyptian newspaper Vetogate has published an article claiming that Jews practice strange and inhuman rituals, such as torturing and murdering non-Jewish children and using their blood to make pies:
“On the occasion of Purim, Jewish adult men slaughter a non-Jewish child under the age of seven, after torturing him and then completely emptying their blood in a suitable container, and then the blood is dried until it becomes a powder to bake a blood pie, which is a sacrifice for this holiday; in order to atone for sins. Despite the fact that the custom has been discontinued for the time being, but the Jews practiced it all over the world, and particularly in Russia during World War II, prompting ostracism and persecution in the communities in which they lived.”
The antisemitic “blood libel” has been used as a pretext to persecute Jews for centuries.

Residents of the French city of Perpignan have launched a legal bid to block the construction of a new synagogue. The residents are objecting on various grounds, including that the synagogue is likely to be a target for terrorists and therefore a risk to the area. The old synagogue had become dilapidated and the Jewish community hopes to build a new, more secure synagogue closer to the city centre.

Antisemitic vandals targeted the menorah at Babyn Yar, the site the Nazis murdered over 33,000 in 1941 Jews. This is the sixth such attack on the site, taking place on the eve of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year.
Tyres were placed around the monument, doused with an inflammable substance and set alight. The flames were noticed and put out by the guard watching over the Ukrainian Orthodox Church nearby.

An antisemitic Arabic-language encyclopaedia has been discovered on Amazon, not for the first time. The book, entitled “The Jews, The Illustrated Encyclopedia” by Dr. Tareq Al-Suwaidan aims to educate about Jews and “their wickedness, treason, and deception which they practiced with all nations so not to be deceived by them and by their promises of false peace.”
Chapter 1 is summarised with a text box saying: “This demonstrates that most of the world’s nations couldn’t live in harmony with the Jews because of the low characteristics they carry, such as the ill treatment of others, deception, greed and voracity which keeps resurging over the ages.”
A section on the Holocaust says: “Through huge media and propaganda campaigns, the Jews used what happened at the hands of the Nazis, to a small number of them, to gain emotional and financial support from states around the world.” It also claims that fewer than 20,000 Jews died in the Holocaust.

Several dozen far-right Ukrainians stormed a tent encampment of ultra-Orthodox Jewish visitors in Uman, Ukraine over the weekend, destroying equipment and dismantling parts of the camp. A police force was dispatched to the area, but according to witnesses, the officers failed to intervene.
“On Shabbat, when they knew we wouldn’t be able to respond or activate the communication device, they simply knocked down the fence, pushed the light poles and security cameras and caused damage estimated at half a million dollars,” Eliezer Kirshboim, chairman and director of the Jewish association in Uman told Yedioth Ahronoth. “We are approaching the High Holidays, and this disrupts all our work arrangements.”

A textbook for children in the final stage of their school education before university makes various claims that the publishers have refused to correct. ThiemeMeulenhoff’s textbook entitled “Theme Workbook – The Middle East” contains assertions that:
“The British government was in urgent need of money during World War I…Jewish bankers were prepared to offer favourable loan terms if the government made a gesture toward the Jewish People.”
The publisher has refused to change this passage and various others.

John Friend, who writes The Realist Report and other antisemitic blogs, has been forced out of his job at the City Manager’s Office in Escondido, California. The blogs claim that a Jewish conspiracy controls the media and is responsible for the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
Friend told a San Diego Union-Tribune journalist: “I have also researched and studied a number of important, yet completely marginalised and in many cases demonised, white Christian patriots including Adolf Hitler, Joseph Goebbels, George Lincoln Rockwell [the founder of the American Nazi Party] and many others.”
He has launched a fundraising campaign on Indigogo to support his “free speech”.
Police in Boca Raton, Florida, are investigating the spraying of graffiti on an apartment complex in Boca Raton, Florida.

A young Parisian named only as Ruben has been beaten up by a gang of three men in the Montreuil neighbourhood of Paris.
According to BNVCA, the French national antisemitism helpline, Ruben was at Robespierre Métro station at 17:00 on Tuesday when he was accosted by a tall man aged 25-30 of African ethnicity.
The man asked Ruben for a lighter and to state his religion. Out of fear, Ruben said he was a Moroccan Muslim, but the man punched him in the face, saying “No, you’re not Muslim. Everyone from Mayer [a local vocational school] is Jewish. You’re nothing but a dirty Jew.”
The man was then joined by two other men of African ethnicity, their identities concealed by hoods. Ruben was left with bruises over his face and body requiring hospital treatment.
An anti-Israel demonstration outside Downing Street today predictably degenerated as antisemitic slurs were hurled at a mostly Jewish crowd gathered to honour the Israeli Prime Minister’s visit. Police made at least one arrest and took away this man who made antisemitic comments.

A teenager in Bilbao has been assaulted by neo-Nazis on his way home. The neo-Nazis carved a swastika into his arm and the number 88, used by far-right groups as a code for “Heil Hitler”, the letter ‘h’ being the eighth letter of the alphabet. The thugs then viciously beat the teenager.
The local political party’s spokesman said: “We are facing a serious incident which has caused alarm among neighbours. We are witnessing an increase in activity from a far-right cell which has been spreading hate and fear in the area.” Local police have questioned a man identified by the victim.
John Dillon, a council worker in Dublin has admitted sending ten antisemitic e-mails to former Irish Justice Minister Alan Shatter over a five week period. In the e-mails, Dillon called Shatter a “perfidious Jew” and “Yiddish whore”, telling him to “f*** off back to the West Bank Zionist a**hole”.
Shatter said of the e-mails: “I got them because I am Jewish, no matter how much of a hard neck you have, persistence of that nature is upsetting and distressing…For any Jewish person to receive this is upsetting, when it’s persistent and ongoing you don’t know what the next step is going to be for this person.”
At the time of his arrest, Dillon claimed that he was exercising his right to free speech and that it was a “political matter” but he has since apologised for the messages, saying he sent them because he was “depressed”.

Four Jewish boys aged 17, 18, 18 and 20 have reportedly been badly beaten in an antisemitic attack at a tram stop in Manchester. The four Jewish boys were approached by three thugs who started verbally and physically assaulting them on Saturday night at around 23:30. The worst affected was the youngest boy, who was knocked unconscious and has been hospitalised with suspected bleeding to his brain.
Greater Manchester Police are treating the incident as an antisemitic hate crime and seeking suspects for grievous bodily harm with intent. Forensics teams remained at the site until Monday morning.
Anyone with information should contact Greater Manchester Police on 101 or Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555111.
Samuel and Diana Blog, an elderly couple who survived the Holocaust were badly beaten during an antisemitic burglary at their home in Amsterdam. Two men, described as middle-aged and of Moroccan descent, entered their home posing as policemen. They shouted: “Dirty Jews, from now on your property is ours.” They brutally beat the elderly couple, tied them up and drugged Diana. Diana’s father was a diamond cutter who had left her a collection of jewellery. The thieves took all of it at gunpoint, threatening to cut off Diana’s fingers when she struggled to remove her rings. The men told Diana: “You dirty Jews. You shouldn’t wear it. You’ve worn it for too long already, now it’s ours.” After they had robbed the couple, the thieves continued to beat them.
Diana, who survived the Auschwitz concentration camp said it was worse than the beatings she received from the Nazis. The couple had been living independently before the attack, but now Diana says she endures crippling pain, and Samuel was blinded. “Those bastards have destroyed our lives,” Samuel said. “I have severe pain. I’m completely broken inside,” Diana added. They will now spend the remainder of their lives wheelchair-bound in hospital.
Their son, Emanuel, is sure that his parents were targeted due to their religion because their home has a large mezuzah on the door, and the attackers continued to beat his parents even after they had stolen everything. He has offered a €12,000 reward for information leading to an arrest.
A Jewish man wearing a kippah (Jewish skullcap) was hurrying down the road in Edgware. Someone doing their gardening called out “Late for the showers?” and laughed.

Three men have been charged with spraying swastikas on a sign outside Camp Agudah Midwest, an Orthodox overnight camp.
They are also charged with damaging a building at the camp and spraying swastikas on a nearby picnic table and car. The incident, has caused the camp to invest in a nighttime security guard and other security measures. The attack took place during the fast day of Tisha b’Av, when Jews mourn the destruction of the ancient temples in Jerusalem. The three defendants face up to a year in jail and more than $2,000 in fines if convicted.

The president of an EU labour movement has reportedly been named in a complaint to police following an antisemitic assault at a café near EU headquarters in Brussels. According to the complaint, the EU official, Stefan Gersh, was holding a metal plaque bearing the name “Mussolini”. Another EU official — who is not Jewish — confronted him, saying that Mussolini was “still a dictator”. Gersh allegedly then said: “Dirty Jewess … Hitler should have exterminated all Jews, just like Jews today are exterminating Palestinians.” It is alleged that Gersh then hit her with the plaque, and when others at the café interceded he shouted: “All you Jews should have been killed.”
Norwegian bank DNB issued a credit card featuring the centuries-old antisemitic caricature of a hook-nosed Jew, wearing a kippah and a prayer shawl, rejoicing against the backdrop of gold coins, symbolising obsession with money. Following a complaint, the bank issued an apology: “We have been notified about a picture of a Visa card issued by us, with an anti-Semitic drawing of a Jew and found out that this was produced due to a system we have where clients can upload their own pictures and get them printed on their card. We have, however, strict guidelines for what kind of pictures that are allowed, and this control is manual. Unfortunately, our manual controls have failed in this particular case, and we are deeply sorry for that. This card should never have been printed. We will contact the client, block the card and issue a new neutral card to the customer. Please note that this is not a mass produced card, and the picture has been deleted from our system. We are very sorry for this, and hope you can convey our answer if you get questions about this.”

RIAS have received a report that a man was seen urinating against a Holocaust memorial in Berlin, Germany, over the summer.
The man, said to be white, in his 30s, with short, shaved hair, was seen desecrating the memorial on a busy street, during the day.
The Deportationsmahnmal Putlitzbrücke memorial, commemorates the site of a train station in Moabit, where over 32,000 Jews were transported from Berlin to concentration camps during the Holocaust.
Since its unveiling in 1987, the monument has been subjected to repeated acts of vandalism. In 1992, it was badly damaged in an explosives attack and had to be rebuilt.
