How did
the West react to the manifesto "Against the new anti-Semitism"?
I
googled and found that The
Daily Mail , Le
Figaro and New York Post (see above ) referred to this part
En conséquence, nous demandons que les versets
du Coran appelant au meurtre et au châtiment des juifs, des chrétiens et des
incroyants soient frappés d’obsolescence par les autorités théologiques, comme
le furent les incohérences de la Bible et l’antisémite catholique aboli par
Vatican II, afin qu’aucun croyant ne puisse s’appuyer sur un texte sacré pour
commettre un crime.
Therefore, we ask that the verses of the Qur'an calling
for the murder and punishment of Jews, Christians and unbelievers be declared
obsolete by theological authorities, just as were the incoherencies of the
Bible and as Catholic anti-Semitism was abolished by Vatican II, so that no
believer can rely on a sacred text to commit a crime.
