Greek Jews slam MP's anti-Semitic article ...

Greek Jews have reacted with shock and anger to an article by an MP from the far-Right Independent Greeks party which was filled with vile anti-Semitic conspiracy theories.
In a statement, the Central Board of Jewish Communities in Greece, the country’s EJC affiliate said that the article by MP Stavroula Xoulidou made repeated references against the Jews and the world Zionist movement. 
The comments “represent the usual dissemination of prejudices and stereotypes that when prevailed in history have led to the persecution of the Jewish people and ultimately to the Holocaust of six million Jews,” the Board said.
“The political system in our country cannot and must not tolerate such ideology that incites hatred and fanaticism in the name of any purpose, because silence over such phenomena means complicity.”
Xoulidou wrote that “the anti-Greek feelings of the British and the Americans are directed by the World Zionist Movement”, adding that, “for example, the Cyprus issue is inaugurated by the English-Jewish Benjamin Disraeli (son of Isaac Disraeli)…”
The MP also wrote that “the World Zionist Movement was behind Attila and the Turkish invasion of the island of Cyprus” and that “it happened under the blessing of the Patriarch of the World Zionist Movement, the American-Jewish FM of the USA Kissinger, who is also involved in the dictatorship of Athens”.
