Greece, like other countries in Europe, continues to be plagued by growing anti-Semitism. Nearly all of Greece’s once-vibrant Jewish population was murdered during the Holocaust.

Probably have no problem with the crescent moon, though. This is moral relativism. Jews and christians are under attack. As Santayana reminds us: "Those who do not remember the past are forced to relive it".

Hey Greeks! You are supposed to remember the Holocaust, not reinact it.

Sometimes irony can really be ironic.

Oh, you have. It will have a slightly-different ending when it reaches its culmination.

This one is for all the marbles.

What an astonishing remark, especially coming from you!

Antisemitism is a persistent thing. Old habits die hard in Europe...

Kavala is run by conservatives, not socialists. The town council has backed down as of yesterday.

were these people determined to become a laughing stock ???

I read from a posting further along the thread that they have backed down on their insistence.

Nothing they say is worth anything.

And nothing they say would be worth anything in any case if they can't remember seeing those old black & white photos of the Jew's incredible suffering in those hellish Nazi death camps.

While I realize that many Greeks also suffered under Nazi occupation, their plight was not in the least degree comparable to the incredibly cruel suffering of millions of European Jews under Hitler's reign of terror.

I have no truck with Greeks who want to stupidly and cruelly remove the Jewish star from a museum but they suffered under the Italians, the Germans, the Soviets and the Greek communists under the 20th century. Oh, I think I forgot the Turks. Greece is in a horrible place geographically but that shouldn’t let them turn a blind eye to the Jews. But then they’re are Liberal/Communist Europeans...
