Aserbaidschan, war da nicht was?
The Conference of European Rabbis worked with rapporteur Rafael
Huseynov of Azerbaijan, who composed the report on which the new
resolution was based, over the course of 18 months to make sure the
interests of European Jewish communities were taken into consideration.
QuoteSince the resolution passed, the Knesset, under Speaker Yuli Edelstein’s leadership and the guidance of Knesset Diplomatic Advisor Oded Ben-Hur, has sent delegations of MKs, Jewish and Muslim, to PACE and to countries from Azerbaijan in the East to Paris in the West, to enlist their European colleagues from other countries in the battle against the decision and other initiatives to ban ritual circumcision.
QuoteEdelstein said on Thursday he is glad the Knesset’s efforts were successful.
Man möchte mal gerne wissen, wie viele Abgeordnete im Europarat eine lukrative "Beratertätigkeit" bei einer Lobby-Tarnfirma haben.
Für die aserbaidschanische Lobbyarbeit im Europarat etwa hat sich längst der Begriff Kaviardiplomatie etabliert. Derart viele teure Geschenke wurden aus Aserbaidschan an europäische Parlamentarier überbracht, dass Gerald Knaus, der Chef der Denkfabrik "Europäische Stabilitätsinitiative" vor einigen Monaten davon sprach, dass der Europarat "seine Seele an ein autokratisches Regime verkauft" habe.
On one hand, right-wing initiatives about ritual slaughter and circumcision, that Pacifici said primarily target Muslims, have serious implications for Jewish life – and Jews, Muslims, and left-wing politicians joined forces to combat them.
Quote“The American Jewish community can help in practical ways. They have the know-how to face the mass media and social media — Google, Twitter and others. They also have the know-how to attract opinion leaders to change the atmosphere,” said Albalas.
