The resurgence of Nazism in Europe was the main subject of a symposium organized by the Jewish Community Center of Brussels Thursday. Participants at the symposium said it was necessary for the world not to be Indifferent to the danger of racism as it was 40 years ago. Gideon Housner, president of Yod Vashem in Israel and former prosecutor in the Eichmann trial, denounced the United Notions which equated Zionism to racism and enabled, therefore, international organizations to repeat this accusation constantly. Jean Pierre-Bloch, head of the French League Against Racism and Anti-Semitism warned against destabilization attempts such as the bomb attacks in Boloano. Munich and Paris.
