The Central Council of Jews in Germany has warned of increased anti-Semitism due to the protests against coronavirus measures.<\/p>\n<p>&#8221;For months, conspiracy theories with anti-Semitic tendencies have been deliberately stirred up in the coronavirus debate,&#8221; Council President Josef Schuster told German daily newspaper Bild. &#8221;If, for example, the Rothschilds are blamed for the pandemic, then this is a synonym for Jews,&#8221; said Shuster. He added that not everyone who protested in Berlin in August was anti-Semitic or racist, &#8221;but they walked among them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Two recent protests have drawn tens of thousands from across the country to Berlin. The demonstrations were mainly peaceful, but at one point, hundreds of demonstrators broke through a blockade in an attempt to storm the Reichstag building. The police trade union, the GdP, said it has also seen a rise in radicalization of protesters against coronavirus protective measures. Some protesters have used signs and flags associated with far-right politics, from the Reichskriegsflagge (Imperial War Flag) to costumes comparing themselves to Holocaust victims.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dw.com\/en\/anti-semitism-in-germany-increased-due-to-coronavirus-protests\/a-54775939\">DW<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jewish groups and police alike have been worried about growing anti-Semitism during large demonstrations in Berlin.
