As reported in JWire, there has been a recent bout of anti-Semitic graffiti in New Zealand. This time, ‘GAZA IS HOLOCAUST’ was daubed on the side of the Holocaust Centre of New Zealand in Wellington. Such a comparison clearly shows the perpetrators have not been to the Holocaust Centre, nor to Gaza, nor had any holocaust education.
The New Zealand Jewish Council weighed in:
Such things as this are a direct assault on the Jewish Community and as such raise concerns there is less religious and ethnic understanding here. We do not believe that anti-Semitism is prevalent in New Zealand but is more a reflection of fringe elements within our society.”Stephen Goodman
