Swiss Christian-jewish Group Warns Anti-semitism Leads to Moral, Spiritual Deterioration

July 18, 1946
See Original Daily Bulletin From This Date

A Christian-Jewish Association to Fight Against Anti-Semitism which was recently founded here has issued a manifesto which points to the “immeasurable danger of anti-Semitism not only for the Jews but for every individual and all people who profess it.”

The manifesto declares that it is a fact that “the poison of anti-Semitism in peoples infected by it leads to extreme deterioration of all the spiritual and moral forces of those peoples” and adds that “reactionary, anti-democratic forces like to hide behind anti-Semitism, a fact which gives the fight against it supreme political importance.”
