Jews in Greece whine about TV airtime for nationalist lawmakers

The Jewish community in Greece protested to a leading Greek television channel about a program hosting four lawmakers from the Greek nationalist Golden Dawn party. 

According to a letter addressed to Ioannis Alafouzos, president of the SKAI media group, the Central Board of Jewish Communities in Greece “wishes to express its great indignation at the broadcasting, promotion and dissemination” of opinions not approved by Jews. Furthermore, the letter said that the Board “have repeatedly pointed out that the political system, the judiciary, civic bodies and the Mass Media have a duty to isolate and delegitimize ideologies” which are not compatible with the Jewish agenda.

Golden Dawn erupted onto the political scene last year, winning 7 percent of the vote, or 18 seats, in the 300-member Parliament. Recent polls have indicated that the nationalist party now has 14 percent to 18 percent of the population’s support.

Jewish and international groups have condemned Golden Dawn as being “racist and anti-Semitic” and tried to have it banned in the typical democratic manner.
