Top Greek Jews Celebrate Golden Dawn Arrests

As expected, the Jews of Greece have come out to celebrate the arrests of the senior officials of the Golden Dawn.

As the Greek and international media continue to attempt to explain exactly why the party members were arrested, all of the Jews who have commented applauding the arrests make no attempt to frame this as anything other than an authoritarian crack-down on a group who’s ideas they don’t like.

The Jerusalem Post reports:

“As Jews, we are very happy” about the arrests, Benjamin Albalas, head of the Central Board of Jewish Communities in Greece (KIS), told The Jerusalem Post on Sunday. “This group, I don’t call them a party, is a neo-Nazi group and I think that the government will go until the end.”

David Saltiel, former president of the KIS, told the Post that he didn’t see a blanket ban of the party in the offing, but did encourage the removal of the party’s leadership.

Golden Dawn is “not a political party, but a gang,” he said, echoing his successor. “The Jewish community always said that the Golden Dawn was a Nazi party and that the government has to be aware.”

“What is happening is an incredible thing. The government is showing resolve in eliminating this neo-Nazi party and it’s the first time that the Greek government [is] showing this kind of determination in reestablishing order in Greek society,” said Sabby Mionis, a Greek- Israeli financier who has been under fire by Golden Dawn for refusing to testify before a Greek parliament that he said contained Holocaust deniers.

“Either they will ban Golden Dawn, or dismantle it – one way or the other – but Golden Dawn as we knew it is over for good,” he said.

Jewish groups outside of Greece have expressed their hope that the government will continue applying pressure on Golden Dawn.

“We congratulate Prime Minister Antonis Samaras on the crackdown of neo-Nazis and hope that the Greek leadership will make this a central part of the European Union Presidency which they will assume in January 2014,” European Jewish Congress President Moshe Kantor said in a statement.

“While we are mindful of the risks involved with taking on a political party that serves in the Parliament, there are limits, which in the case of Golden Dawn, were passed a long time ago,” said American Jewish Committee Executive Director David Harris.

“Laudably, the government of Prime Minister Samaras has recognized the absolutely necessity to say ‘enough is enough,’ and to take meaningful actions to stop the madness of Golden Dawn. A party cannot be allowed to cynically use the freedom that democracy offers to subvert that very freedom.”

The Israeli Jewish Congress also expressed approval of arrests, with IJC CEO Michel Gourary calling Golden Dawn “a party motivated by pure hatred and racism, and in particular, anti-Semitism and Holocaust denial.”

I will say again that these haughty Jews are playing with fire, and I do not believe they have thought this through.  They are messing with men of a caliber that Europe has not seen since the collapse of the Reich.
