Anti -Semitism in Germany: Klein warns of growing hatred

The Federal Government's anti-Semitism representative, Felix Klein, commented on the situation in the run-up to the anniversary of the Hamas attack on Israel on October 7, 2023. In an interview, he emphasized the alarming increase of anti -Semitic violence and crimes since the attack, which in his assessment brought an unprecedented wave of anti -Semitism in Germany. Klein pointed out that public rallies that propagate Israel hatred have increased and warns that this normalizes hatred of Jews in society.

Klein made it clear that the security forces in Germany were particularly vigilant before this anniversary. However, he believes that the police and the state alone cannot solve the problem. He appealed to society to actively counteract anti -Semitism, especially in everyday situations such as insulting comments or discriminatory contributions on social media.
