Na sastanku u Berlinu židovski lideri su  zatražili od Njemačke da zabrani Hitklerovu knjigu Mein Kampf i da pojača borbu protiv antisemitizma .

In resolutions discussed at a meeting of the World Jewish Congress (WJC) Governing Board in Berlin, the delegates urged “authorities, publishers and book sellers in Germany to take appropriate steps to prevent the re-publication and sale of ‘Mein Kampf’ in book stores, including as an annotated edition, in the light of Germany’s special responsibility towards the victims of the Nazi crimes and in order to send a strong signal that books inciting to hatred against Jews cannot be sold legally in Germany.”

U rezoluciji  sa sastanka  Glavnog odbora Svjetskog Židovskog Kongresa ( WJC), koji se održao u Berlinu, delegati su tražili  da se poduzmu odgovarajuće mjere kod vlasti, izdavača i prodavača knjiga u Njemačkoj da se ne preštampava i prodaje "Mein Kampf". To je u "svijetlu"  njemačke odgovornosti prema žrtvama nacističkih zločina. Tako bi se   poslao jaki signal da  se knjiga koja potiče mržnju prema Židovima  ne može legalno prodavati u Njemačkoj.

U utorak je 150 učesnika sastanka odalo počast žrtvama Holokausta na tri glavna memorijalna mjesta u Berlinu:

• Željezničku stanicu  u Grunewaldu ( Memorijal na 17 kolosjeku) odakle su Židovi slani u nacističke logore smrti

• Vilu u kojoj se  održala Wansee konferencija na kojoj su 20.siječnja 1942.  njemački lideri donijeli odluku  o primjeni "Konačnog rješenja" koje je zapečatilo sudbinu šest milijuna Židova

• Memorijal za ubijene Židove u Europi koji se nalazi u centru Berlina.

U nedjelju su delegati sudjelovali na demonstracijama koje su organizirane od  " Central Council of Jews in Germany" kod  Brandenburg vrata,   gdje su  njemačka kancelarka Angela Merkel i WJC predsjednik  Ronald Lauder bili govornici.

The WJC, which represents Jewish umbrella bodies in 100 countries, also criticized the United Nations over “the fact that several agencies and senior officials of the United Nations took a one-sided stand in the recent conflict between Israel and Hamas, including by appointing an investigative committee whose terms of reference were skewed against Israel in advance, and made unfounded accusations against Israel of deliberately targeting civilians in the Gaza Strip.” The international body reiterated its support for a two-state solution and urged Israel and the Palestinians “to return to direct peace negotiations.”

In a resolution on anti-Semitism in Europe, the delegates called for better law enforcement regarding hate crimes and lamented “that many European countries are not complying with international agreements in place with respect to combating anti-Semitism” and that “a large number of anti-Semitic acts are either not reported or not categorized” as such....
