Bekai: Anti-Semitism is a European phenomenon and is not attached to Iranian culture and civilization / More than 100 synagogues are active in Iran / Europe should not project and react to terrorist attacks in Jewish places.
🔹 Esmail Bakaei, spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in response to a question about the recent accusations of several Western countries, including Germany, England, Australia, and the report of the Canadian Sibias network which claims that Iran planned anti-Jewish movements, stated: The accusation of anti-Semitism and Iran is not actually attached to the Iranian nation; because the phenomenon of anti-Semitism (anti-Semitism) is a completely historical and European phenomenon and has no relation to religion, Ritual, Culture and Iranian Civilization. Unfortunately, some Western governments and media constantly reproduce a clichéd and baseless label, paying little attention to objective and historical facts. Throughout history, Iranians have always been one of the most kind and tolerant people towards the followers of Judaism; Because there are 13 or 14 synagogues in the historic city of Yazd alone, and about 100 active Jewish synagogues throughout the country, and many graves of Jewish prophets and elders are honored in all parts of Iran.
Comparing the security of Jewish places in Iran to Western countries, the spokesman for the diplomatic service clarified: Although we are engaged in an all-out war with a regime that falsely presents itself as the representative of the world Jewish community, how many cases of attacks on Jewish places in Jerusalem have been seen throughout Iran? Even if movement occurred on a handful of rare occasions, it was handled with determination and urgency. On the contrary, the European countries that claim to answer must answer what kind of atmosphere they have created in which their capitals witness attacks on Jewish cemeteries every day, should their synagogues be protected with barbed wire or their signs removed to protect them from attack? These predictions are an attempt to cover up the internal problems of the West itself.
🔹 At the end, Bakai emphasized the historical awareness and cognitive differentiation of Iranian society and noted: the current wave of anger in Europe is not unrelated to Israel's crimes and genocide; A regime that fraudulently publicizes its crimes in the name of the Jewish religion. However, Iran's society, people and system are much more civilized, revictimized and more aware than attributing the shameful and anti-human acts of an occupation and to the followers of a divine religion. Therefore, instead of blaming Iran, European capitals should come to their senses and look for the roots of violence in their policies and structures.
