Le silence et l’inaction sont des actes qui peuvent devenir complices.
L’ULB doit réagir; pour préserver son histoire et sa réputation mais aussi dans l’intérêt de notre jeunesse qui façonnera le monde de demain.
La complaisance n’est pas une option.
J’ai mal à mon alma mater.

Il n’y a pas de hasard dans la disposition de ces livres chez #Filigranes.
Mélange des genres ahurissant au profit d’une certaine idéologie et aux dépens de l’histoire.
Filigranes n’est plus ce qu’il était.

Thank you Foreign Minister @prevotmaxime for the open and constructive exchange with AJC lay leaders.
We strongly agree that no one should hide their identity or fear for their children because they are Jewish.
Belgium’s plan to strengthen cooperation across all levels of government and involve Jewish communities in new measures against antisemitism is the right approach.
@AJCTAI stands ready to help and looks forward to working together. 🇧🇪
🇺🇸🇮🇱 Very good and open conversation with the American Jewish Committee @AJCGlobal about our shared commitment to fighting antisemitism in Belgium and in the United States, and more globally around the world.
No one should feel unsafe, hide their identity or fear for their children because they are Jewish. Political leaders and civil society organisations have a responsibility to stand together on this, whatever our political differences. That means listening to Jewish communities, taking their concerns seriously, giving answers to them and challenging the disinformation, conspiracy theories and antisemitic stereotypes that fuel hatred.
Belgium’s commitment is longstanding and unequivocal. Building on existing efforts, we are strengthening cooperation across all levels of government and preparing further measures to combat antisemitism, with representatives of Belgium’s Jewish communities involved in this work. Our goal is clear: ensuring that Jewish life can flourish in Belgium in safety and dignity.

We are appalled by reports that MEP Rima Hassan knocked down the Israeli and European flags displayed at the European Parliament as part of an exhibition honouring the victims and hostages of the October 7 massacre.
If confirmed, this goes far beyond political disagreement or provocation. These flags formed part of a memorial to the victims of the deadliest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust and to those abducted by Hamas. To deliberately interfere with such a memorial, on the eve of the anniversary of the attacks, would show a profound contempt for their memory and for the suffering of their families.
That such an incident is alleged to have taken place inside the European Parliament makes it all the more serious. We call on the Parliament to establish exactly what happened, make the relevant evidence public and, if the allegations are confirmed, take appropriate disciplinary action.
The victims of October 7 and the hostages deserve dignity and respect. Their memory must never become a target for political provocation.

Une croix gammée sur une mosquée à Laeken : c’est inacceptable. Je condamne fermement cet acte de haine et assure la communauté musulmane bruxelloise de tout mon soutien.

België, mijn land, moet ophouden zich zo onwaardig en dom te gedragen. Deze haat tegen Israël is het perfecte voorbeeld van manipulatie, onwetendheid en extremisme. Sport moet de verbondenheid tussen volkeren vieren.
De Verenigde Staten hebben Iran toegelaten tot de wedstrijden van het WK, hoewel beide landen met elkaar in oorlog zijn en Iran een islamistische dictatuur is.
Deze schande moet stoppen. #MRvoorzitter #trotseliberaal

Une décision belge plus qu’inquiétante, tant vis-à-vis du professeur Kotek que de la lutte contre l’antisémitisme dans notre pays.
Aujourd’hui, en Belgique, parler d’antisémitisme est déjà compliqué, mais en évoquer les causes est un véritable no go.
J’entends beaucoup de choses de la part de M. Prévôt ou du Premier ministre, mais je crois ce que je vois, pas ce que j’entends. Et ce que je vois, c’est que l’État ne combat pas l’antisémitisme. Il n’a pas absolument aucune volonté de prendre le mal à la racine.
Véritablement honteux.
Soutien total à Joël Kotek.

The EJC strongly condemns the disgraceful actions of Israeli minister of internal security Itamar Ben Gvir following his public humiliation of detained pro-Palestinian activists from a flotilla that had attempted to illegally enter Gaza.
This shocking display by the minister runs counter to Israeli and Jewish values and the rule of law and only grants legitimacy to a group of Hamas-supporting activists who have shockingly been turned into heroes by his reprehensible and counter-productive actions.
The EJC welcomes similar statements by Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar which have clearly distanced themselves and the government from Ben Gvir’s antics.
The public humiliation and mocking of people arrested and about to be deported does nothing to enhance Israel’s security and has no place in a Jewish state. It diminishes the fight against terrorism and only gives succor to Israel’s worst enemies.

Encore une fois la même chose !
Une fois de plus, les hooligans du FC Bruges sont Antisémites, homophones et racistes.
2 solutions : Renforcer la loi et un coordinateur pour lutter efficacement contre l’antisémitisme !
Il est temps de sanctionner fermement : interdictions de stade à vie, poursuites et démantèlement de ces structures.
La balle est dans le camp du FC Bruges.
Agissez !

We welcome the decision by the Belgian authorities to strengthen the protection of Jewish institutions by deploying military personnel alongside federal police.
This measure comes in response to a series of alarming incidents, including the recent attack on a synagogue in Liège, and reflects the very real security concerns faced by Jewish communities in Belgium and across Europe.
We also echo our Belgian affiliate, the @ccojb, in expressing appreciation to the Ministers of the Interior @BernardQuintin_ and Defence @FranckenTheo for this decision. Ensuring the safety of synagogues, schools and community spaces is essential. This step sends an important signal that the protection of Jewish life is a priority and that concrete action is being taken in the face of rising antisemitism.
At the same time, we reiterate our call for a comprehensive national strategy to combat antisemitism, as well as the appointment of a dedicated coordinator to ensure effective implementation and long-term impact.
We thank the security forces for their commitment and protection.

Pologne 1968: Antisémite ? Non. Juste anti sioniste. Belgique 2026: antisémite? Non … juste …anti sioniste? A quand une stratégie? Une ou un coordinateur? Et sortir du déni? @jonathasbel @ccojb @eurojewcong
In 1968, Poland’s communist regime launched an antisemitic campaign that drove out much of the country’s remaining Jews. How was that possible in a system that officially claimed to outlaw antisemitism?
Because the regime changed the language, not the substance. The communists called the campaign “anti-Zionist.” In practice, however, “Zionist” functioned as a coded term for Jew. Anti-Zionism became the politically acceptable vocabulary through which antisemitism could once again be expressed, legitimized, and enforced.
The same mechanism is visible today. Once again, communists, Islamists, and their fellow travelers mask antisemitism in the language of anti-Zionism. Legitimate criticism of Israel is one thing. Turning “Zionist” into a slur, treating Jews as collectively suspect, and excusing threats, intimidation, or violence as anti-colonial resistance is something else. At that point, this is no longer principled political criticism. It is an old hatred dressed up in a new ideological costume.
The lesson of 1968 is that antisemitism rarely speaks in its own name. It hides behind fashionable slogans, moral grandstanding, and ideological camouflage. But the target remains the same. We know where that road leads. That is why it must be identified early, called what it is, and confronted before rhetoric once again turns into expulsion, violence, and fear.

Antisemitism is not a marginal phenomenon in Brussels.
A new study by the Jonathas Institute reveals the persistence, and in some cases the normalization, of antisemitic stereotypes in the Belgian capital.

Absolutely unbelievable.
A debate on Belgian public radio:
“Is antisemitism a form of racism like others?”
And the background is the flag of Israel because Belgian media can’t tell the difference between Belgian Jews and Israel.
Need I say more? Really?

The Jewish community in Belgium has repeatedly voiced concern about the rise of #antisemitism in the country. The explosion at a synagogue in Liège this morning proves those fears are justified. Fortunately, no one was injured.
How much more must happen before #Belgium understands that serious action is needed? Every act of antisemitism is a direct attack on European values and human dignity, and must be treated with the utmost seriousness.
We expect Belgium to act decisively.

A synagogue in Liege, Belgium, was attacked overnight with an explosive device. Anti-terror police are investigating this extremely violent act of antisemitism. Thankfully, no one was injured.
We stand with Belgium’s Jewish community and urge authorities worldwide to take all necessary steps to prevent and guard against violence targeting Jewish communities.
