The Anne Frank Center for Mutual Respect delivered a searing statement late Tuesday morning, accusing the White House of tacitly embracing anti-Semitism with its earlier silence on the spate of anti-Semitic incidents and in failing to specifically cite the Jewish people in its International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement last month.
"The President's sudden acknowledgment is a Band-Aid on the cancer of anti-Semitism that has infected his own administration," the group's executive director, Steven Goldstein, said in a social media post. &quot Trump's) statement today is a pathetic asterisk of condescension after weeks in which he and his staff have committed grotesque acts and omissions reflecting anti-Semitism, yet day after day have refused to apologize and correct the record."
The statement continued: "Make no mistake: The anti-Semitism coming out of this administration is the worst we have ever seen from any administration. The White House repeatedly refused to mention Jews in its Holocaust remembrance, and had the audacity to take offense when the world pointed out the ramifications of Holocaust denial."

3. I read the story on MSN

Never read the comments. It was risible to see how many people wanted to weigh in and basically tell the people at the Anne Frank Center that they didn't know anything about Jews and how bad things were under Obama and how great things are for Jews now. It's almost as if they were calling Jews as ignorant as black people, who similarly don't know how wonderful it is to be black in President Trump's America. All the good, white Southern Baptist folks agree, so it must be so!
