ACOM launches its newest campaign “This is what they want you to think Barcelona is like… This is Barcelona.” | A-com

As an influential group in Spain, ACOM has been fighting antisemitism and promoting relations between Spain and Israel for years. Now we are launching a campaign to raise awareness about Barcelona, with the city elections in sight, because Catalonia, and especially its capital, has become a hub of hostility against Israel, with an alarming increase of antisemitic crimes. The main reason for this surge is the collusion of the main Catalonian parties (and their municipal groups in Barcelona) who went from taking action to complete and utter silence. The most recent example was when the city canceled their twin city agreement between Barcelona and Tel Aviv, a decision made by Colau. Before that, the discrimination against Jews was financed by local institutions that crimialized Israel and glorified terrorism that lead to Jews being killed in their state and around the world, etc.
