Attempt to ban criticisms of Zionist power by Jay Knott (12/29/10)       ⇌ (September 11th. 2001)       

Here is another example of attempting to rebut facts with feelings - an orthodox Greek priest comes out with a theory of how Zionists control the world. Zionists respond, not by refuting the argument factually, but by labeling it 'anti-Semitic'. 

The priest is exaggerating - but banning exaggerating about Zionist power is the first step to banning criticizing it altogether. It's ironic that the European Jewish Congress thinks it can decide that the opinions of a leader of another religion inside a sovereign nation are 'unacceptable', and orders an international body to ban expressing those opinions - opinions about international Zionist power!

European Jewish Congress 'repulsed' by Greek priest's anti-Semitic remarks - Metropolite of Piraeus Seraphim says Zionism tries to destroy family values and there is a Zionist conspiracy to enslave Greece and Christian Orthodoxy.

The European Jewish Congress (EJC) said Wednesday that it was repulsed by the "intolerable hate-filled and anti-Semitic rant" of a leading Greek priest who blamed world Jewry for the country's financial problems.

“It is completely unacceptable that someone senior in a mainstream European religious denomination can make such repulsive and hate-filled claims,” EJC President Moshe Kantor said. “That they were said so openly on national television demonstrates that there are those who feel no shame expressing these views in front of a wide audience.”

“European nations and the European Union must immediately pass robust legislation to ban and sanction anti-Semitism in all its forms and at all levels.

This rant proves that the discredited views of the twentieth century are apparently alive and well within areas of Europe and this needs to be addressed immediately,” Kantor added.

“We call on the Greek government to implement its laws against such hate-speech and the leaders of the Greek Orthodox Church to immediately remove this person from his position.”

While being interviewed on a morning show of Greece's largest television station, Mega TV, the Metropolite of Piraeus Seraphim said that international Zionism tries to destroy family values by promoting one-parent families and same-sex marriages, and said there is a Zionist conspiracy to enslave Greece and Christian Orthodoxy.
