Zionist Occupied Germany: Jewish life is only possible in Germany with a complete isolation of the far-right AfD (civ nat zionists), says meddling jewish council. The warning comes ahead of Germany's September elections
(www.dw.com)https://www.dw.com/en/germany-jewish-leader-warns-against-cooperation-with-afd/a-58668729The president of the Central Council of Jews in Germany, Josef Schuster, called for a complete distancing of all other parties from the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) in an interview with the local newspaper Neue Osnabrücker Zeitung on Wednesday.
The comments by the head of the Berlin-based Jewish federation came ahead of the nationwide elections, as well as state-level polls in the state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, on September 26.
"I think the be-all and end-all in a newly elected parliament is the existence of a clear consensus among the democratic parties — not only to not deal politically with the AfD, but also to rule out any form of cooperation with them from the outset," Schuster said.
"This is also what ultimately makes Jewish life possible," he added.
Schuster also criticized the formerly Soviet-controlled East Germany, the GDR, for the way it dealt with Jews.
"The GDR kind of shifted the legacy of national socialism onto West Germany," he said.
According to Schuster, both the Holocaust and Jewish life in East Germany were diminished and the topic of Israel was largely ignored.
Parts of eastern Germany, including in Saxony-Anhalt and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, continue to be hotbeds of far-right and neo-Nazi activity.
