Synagogues and schools must be protected by security forces today, even more than in many previous decades.

Since Hamas's terrorist attack on October 7, antisemitic crimes and acts of violence have risen to a tragic record high.

There is a hatred of Jews that disguises itself as criticism or protest, as a political stance on the Middle East conflict.

Anyone who uses criticism as a vehicle to deny the Jewish community in Israel, or even the State of Israel, the right to exist, or to call for violence, has crossed the line into hatred of Jews.

Whoever is a patriot, whoever wants to stand up for freedom, equality, and human dignity, must stand by Jews in everyday life.

Only through this daily solidarity can trust and security grow again.

Whoever chants "Death to the Jews" on the streets or demands the annihilation of the Jewish state must find no understanding or applause in any political party.

Wherever coalitions are negotiated and governments are formed, this must be a condition.

Antisemitism must not be allowed to influence government policy anywhere in Germany.

""Once in power, we will root out racism by every legal means, by all forms of punishment enshrined by law and by all the forms of punishment that we will introduce!

All organisations under the influence [of racism] will be decontaminated thoroughly from floor to ceiling. You all must make combating racism a personal struggle!

The first obstacle to the spread of racism is us, our refusal, our protest and the brotherly support to those who suffer [because of racism]

But that is not all: the antiracist messaging must take over, in all of its cultural sense, in order to destroy the mental constraints of racialism.

Everyone must experience the diversity of cultures (…) We need popular resistance to bring about a cultural liberation of France from fascist culture and its racist beginnings"
