BERLIN \u00a0– Thousands of Germans wearing Jewish caps took part in nationwide rallies on Wednesday evening in support of the Jewish community amid concerns about growing anti-Semitism.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Jewish groups are trying to harness public outrage about an attack last week on an Israeli Arab who wore the Jewish cap, or kippa, in Berlin as an experiment. He ended up being subjected to verbal abuse by three people and was lashed with a belt by a Syrian Palestinian. A video was posted on the internet.<\/p>\n

That attack followed reports of bullying of Jewish children in schools and prompted the head of the Central Council of Jews, Josef Schuster, to advise Jews not to wear kippas in big cities.<\/p>\n

In Berlin, more than 2,000 people participated in the so-called \u2018kippa march\u2019, a police spokesman said. Similar rallies were held in Cologne and other German cities.<\/p>\n

The marches followed a decision by Germany\u2019s music industry on Wednesday to scrap its prestigious annual Echo awards after a row over anti-Semitism.<\/p>\n

The awarding of this year\u2019s Echo music prize to a rapper duo accused of reciting anti-Semitic lyrics caused outrage. Several previous winners returned their awards in protest.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

The BVMI music association said on Wednesday the Echo prize had been so damaged by the row that a new start was required.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn no account do we want this music prize to be a platform for anti-Semitism, contempt for women, homophobia or for belittling violence,\u201d it said in a statement.<\/p>\n

The controversial winners were Kollegah and Farid Bang, whose lyrics include \u201cI\u2019m doing another Holocaust, coming with a Molotov\u201d and who sing that their bodies are \u201cmore defined than Auschwitz prisoners\u201d.<\/p>\n

Germany is not alone in its struggle against hostility to Jews. France was shocked by the murder last month of a Holocaust survivor in a suspected anti-Semitic attack, and Britain\u2019s main opposition Labour Party is embroiled in an anti-Semitism row.<\/p>\n

However, the legacy of the Holocaust, in which the Nazis killed at least six million Jews, has left Germans with a special sense of responsibility.<\/p>\n

MOST ATTACKS BY FAR-RIGHT<\/p>\n

German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas told the Tagesspiegel daily that anti-Semitic attacks were directed at \u201call of us\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo one may be discriminated against because of their origin, the colour of their skin or religion,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Since 1991, the number of Jews belonging to a religious community has more than tripled to more than 100,000, boosted by an influx from the former Soviet Union. About the same number are non-practising Jews or people with Jewish roots in Germany.<\/p>\n

This compares to about 600,000 before the Nazi Holocaust and just 10,000 at the end of World War Two.<\/p>\n

Tagesspiegel daily, citing government figures, has reported that four anti-Semitic crimes were reported on average per day last year, around the same level as in 2016. The majority – 1,377 of 1,452 – were committed by right-wing radicals.<\/p>\n

The anti-immigrant Alternative for Germany (AfD) blames the influx of more than 1.6 million migrants, many from the Middle East, since 2014.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe sounded warnings very early about the huge strength of Muslim anti-Semitism,\u201d said senior AfD member Georg Pazderski.<\/p>\n

Schuster from the Central Council of Jews also called on Muslim groups to stand up to anti-Semitism. \u201cThere can be no tolerance of intolerance,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Germany\u2019s Central Council of Muslims and Turkish groups have backed the rallies.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you want to fight Islamophobia, then you can\u2019t tolerate anti-Semitism either. And we know where anti-Semitism ended up in German history,\u201d Gokay Sofuoglu, head of the Turkish Communities in Germany, told the Berliner Zeitung.<\/p>\n

In an attempt to assuage concerns, Germany has appointed an anti-Semitism commissioner, former diplomat Felix Klein, who starts work next month, but critics say Chancellor Angela Merkel\u2019s government has done too little.<\/p>\n
