If you read one article today, make it the outstanding report of UN Special Rapporteur @ahmedshaheed on #Antisemitism. What makes the report so excellent? (1/5) ohchr.org/Documents/Issu…
It recognises ALL sources of Antisemitism, be it white supremacists, radical islamist or left-wing antisemitism including when hiding behind #antizionism(2/5)
It describes extensivley the unique characteristics of antisemitism: The conspiracy myths at its core; the appearance of antisemitism even in places where few or no Jewish persons live; the difference and intersection with other forms of bigotry (3/5)
It recommends the adoption of the @TheIHRA definition of antisemitism as a useful tool especially when it comes to better education about all forms of antisemitism and better data-collection. It also calls on the UN to appoint a special contact point for Jewish communities.(4/5)
Many more and important findings are included (online antisemitism, regional trends, lack of monitoring) as well as recognition of the @EU_Commission Code of Conduct on combating hate speech online as best practice. Kudos to the great work of @ahmedshaheed (5/5)
