JTA — The first time Gidon Lev encountered Holocaust denial was after becoming an unwitting TikTok star at the age of 86.
“I was totally shocked. How could this be?” he told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency about receiving dozens of comments accusing him of lying about the years in a Nazi concentration camp as a child.
“If only I was a liar,” he said. “Then I would have a father, grandparents, cousins, aunts, and uncles. I would have had a childhood.”

"...Es reicht nicht aus, in ritualisierten Gedenkreden hierzulande ein "Nie wieder" zu fordern, oder, besonders falsch, diese Floskel zu strapazieren: "In Deutschland hat Antisemitismus keinen Platz". Er ist da, er hat längst Platz genommen. Viel wichtiger sind diese Punkte: 1. Ein intensiverer Schulunterricht zur Shoah, zu ihren Gründen und ihren Schrecken. 2. Eine strengere Verfolgung antisemitischer Straftaten. 3. Eine offene Diskussion, wieviel verborgener und offener Antisemitismus schon in der Forderung steckt, Israel als Deutscher trotz des Holocausts kritisieren zu dürfen...."

Jewish and anti-racist groups in France have roundly condemned a far left member of parliament who posted a photograph of herself meeting with Palestinian solidarity activists above a tweet concerned with antisemitism.
The MP — Ersilia Soudais, who sits with the far left NUPES coalition in the French National Assembly — was appointed by her party on Feb. 14 as a vice-president of the parliament’s study group on antisemitism. The announcement sparked concern among Jewish groups given NUPES anti-Zionist stance, which has included tabling a parliamentary resolution in July last year denouncing Israel for its alleged “apartheid regime.”

A mikveh dating to the 18th or 17th centuries was discovered in the Polish city of Oświęcim, Heritage Daily reported on Friday.
Oświęcim is the Polish name for a place that is far better known for its German name, a name that will live in infamy forever: Auschwitz.
Jews first came to settle in Poland in the early 1200s, according to MyJewishLearning, and, as Heritage Daily notes, first settled in Oświęcim in the 1500s.

Ja, auch in Oświęcim lebten Juden schon seit Jahrhunderten, bevor die Deutschen anfingen dort ihre Mordmaschine in Gang zu bringen...
Helsinki, February 20th, 2023 – The Finnish parliament has reversed its plan to ban religious slaughter as part of a broader overhaul of its animal welfare legislation.
After the Constitutional Law Committee voted 10-5 against the ban late last week, the Agricultural Committee, which had prepared the legislation for more than a year, reversed its plan and voted 10-3 for allowing meat production compatible with Jewish and Muslim religious traditions, that is shechita and halal slaughter.
In a statement in Helsinki on Monday ECI Founding Director Tomas Sandell welcomed the decision which he called “a major victory for minority rights, especially the right for the Jewish and Muslim communities to practice their religions.”

Wahrlich eine gute Entscheidung vom Finnischen Parlament...!
A friend asked me last week why the mayor of Barcelona, Ada Colau, had suspended relations with Israel and canceled the twin city agreement with the most liberal city in the Middle East, Tel Aviv. What does she gain by this?
Apart from how pathetic it is that she exceeds her authority in such a way, my friend did not understand that in the nature of fanatics, there are no reasons, only the blindness of their agenda of resentment and prejudice.
Antisemitismus hat viele Facetten. Manchmal entdeckt man ihn sogar bei sich selbst.
Wo beginnt Antisemitismus? Woher kommen die oft jahrhundertealten Stereotype, und welche Rolle spielen sie bis heute? Wie unterscheidet man zwischen legitimer Kritik an der israelischen Regierung und unverhohlenem Antisemitismus? Wir fragen eine Jüdin und einen Juden, wie sich Antisemitismus im Alltag anfühlt - und erklären, warum er so schwer zu bekämpfen ist.

In dem Präventionstheaterstück „TACHELES“, das am Dienstag an der Staatlichen Realschule CO II bayernweit Prämiere feierte, geht es um Antisemitismus und vor allem um die Stärkung des Demokratiebewusstseins.
