European Jewish leaders call for new legislation

Evropski židovski lideri traže nove zakone

The Jewish Chronicle, Wednesday, March 28, 2012

On a visit to London this week, the Chief Rabbi of Moscow and President of the Conference of European Rabbis, Pinchas Goldschmidt, called on the European Parliament to boost security for threatened minorities in the wake of the killings in Toulouse.

Prilikom posjete Londonu ovog tjedna, glavni rabin u Moskvi i predsjednik konferencije evropskih rabina Pinchas Goldschmidt su tražili od Evropskog parlamenta bolju sigurnost za ugrožene manjine , pozivajući se na ubojstva u Tuolousu.

Rabini su objavili da će Konferencija Evropskih Rabina ,  zbog  terorističkih napada, osnovati novu fundaciju  u Evropi za bolju zaštitu Židovskih zajednica u Istočnoj i Srednjoj Evropi , koje sada imaju vrlo malo sigurnosne zaštite ( infrastrukture). 

"We all have a responsibility to look beyond our own immediate communities.

Mi  svi imamo odgovornost da "gledamo"  dalje od naših vlastitih zajednica.

Rabini su rekli "Mi pozivamo filantrope, fondacije i korporacije da prepoznaju da postoji velika potreba i da trebaju doprinijeti više za bolju sigurnost židovskih zajednica".

I Moše Kantor, predsjednik Evropskog židovskog kongresa su pridružio pozivu rabina Goldschmidta za EU.

"If some measure of good can come from the devastation at the Ozar Hatorah school, it is for European legislators to immediately readdress the necessity for tougher legislation against hate and racial crimes," Mr Kantor said.

"In addition, the authorities need to be given greater powers to act against any forms of hate and intolerance."

Mr Kantor said that all the messages of sympathy and soul-searching should be used to drive forward overdue EU legislation.

"In 2008, the EU Commission called on all EU member states to adopt legislation that would combat hate and intolerance in their own legal systems. However, three years later, none has done so. There is no time to waste, the souls of four murdered Jews are crying out to European legislators to act now and act firm."

Mr Kantor also praised the French government and authorities for their reaction to the events in Toulouse.
