TRUE TORAH JEWS RELEASES STATEMENT TO PRESS

A European Union-sponsored conference on anti-Semitism and ethnic intolerance in Europe organized by the President of the European Union Commission, Mr. Romano Prodi, to be held on February 19, has generated a typically hysterical uproar, including hostile rhetoric, among supporters of the State of Israel, including the World Jewish Congress and others.  Prodi had originally canceled the event after Edgar Bronfman, the president of the New York-based World Jewish Congress, and Coby Benatoff, the head of its European branch, accused Mr. Prodi of "intellectual dishonesty and moral treachery" in handling anti-Semitism.

Prodi termed the criticism "defamatory" in his rebuttal written to leaders of the Zionist World Jewish Congress, but subsequently came to an understanding a few days later with Israel Singer, the WJC board chairman, at a hastily arranged meeting in Brussels.

Articles describing this planned event and the response it has generated can be found on the internet. The letter from President Prodi to Bronfmann and Benatoff is at:

True Torah Jews Criticizes Edgar Bronfman, President of World Jewish Congress

Feb. 10, 2004 (Brooklyn, NY) - A representative of True Torah Jews condemns the statement by Edgar Bronfman, President of the New York-based World Jewish Congress. Mr. Bronfman accused Mr. Romano Prodi, President of the European Union Commission of "intellectual dishonesty and moral treachery" in handling anti-Semitism. (Associated Press, Feb. 9. 2004)

The President of the European Union Commission, Mr. Romano Prodi, proposed a conference on February 19, 2004 at the Commission's Charlemagne building in Brussels to address the common concern about prejudice and intolerance in Europe.

“Mr. Prodi was vilified by some Israel supporters such as the president of the World Jewish Congress for ignoring anti-Semitism in Europe, even though a number of the participants at the planned conference themselves are supporters of the State of Israel,” said a representative for True Torah Jews.

As discussed and documented throughout our website, representatives of the Zionist movement and the Zionist State of Israel continue sounding the alarm of hysteria about anti-Semitism in Europe to promote immigration at the very same time they know perfectly well that antipathy towards Jews is directly attributable to the conduct of the Zionist regime and their aggressive behavior.

“The Zionists seek to divert attention from this reality, and instead attempt to blame everyone else but themselves and the Zionist state for this phenomenon,” said the Representative.

As Jews who are faithful to the principles of our eternal religion, we appeal to the honorable leaders of the European Union, the European Commission and people of good will everywhere to see through the diversionary tactics of the Zionist spokesmen and politicians who falsely claim to represent the Jewish People and religion in their actions of incitement.

Judaism seeks only peace and harmony between Jews and non-Jews living in their native countries. We proudly proclaim that true peace and brotherhood will only be possible through understanding the difference between Zionism and true Judaism.

True Torah Jews is a non-profit organization dedicated to spreading the word to the people of the world that a silent majority of Jews do not support the Zionist State and that the declarations of the infamous World “Jewish” Congress are not representative of true Jewish beliefs. It is our hope that through this knowledge and understanding peace may be achieved. For more information go to www.torahtruejews.com
