The Jewish community of Porto has gone from obscurity and disrepair to wealth and success – all thanks to a new citizenship law aimed at Sephardic Jews.
A socialist candidate in Portugal says she supports a Jewish community’s draft bill on full reinstatement for an army captain who was persecuted for promoting Judaism.
The measure in the case of a libeled army captain offered none of the financial compensation given to non-Jewish officers persecuted by the Salazar dictatorship.
