The American Jewish Committee welcomed the move. “The creation of this new post indicates that European nations are recognizing the uniqueness of anti-Semitism and are ready to confront this most vicious form of hate,” said David Harris, the AJCommittee’s executive director.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
