LONDON, Englad [CHI] — In a special address given at the Kristelnacht 70th year commemoration event in Westcliff last Saturday night, leading rabbi Yitzchak Schochet delivered a key note address in which he warned of the increasing anti semitism in all parts of Europe. The Rabbi drew references from the current credit crunch about which he said, “we live in a changing world as ever shifting cautionary winds sweep through our lives. And whatever the challenges that the current global crisis presents, there are always those looking for scapegoats – somewhere to vent. And with the proliferation of modern technology it is all too easy to spew venom and put malicious rumors out there. And there are always going to be those who listen to them and amongst those, some who actually believe them.”
