Televised Christmas Carol in Romania ... Anti-Semitic

Televised Christmas Carol in Romania Accused of Being Anti-Semitic

by Kathy Jones on December 15, 2013 at 9:39 PM

Romania is in the eye of yet another controversy after a televised choir of Christmas carol indirectly glorified the Holocaust and said Jews should be burned in a chimney.

The song, shown on the country's new TVR3 channel on December 6, drew strong condemnation from religious groups and the US embassy in Bucharest. The government has also distanced itself from the controversial broadcast.

The century-old carol, performed by a folk group in the northwestern Cluj region, features lyrics that use the pejorative term "jidovi" for Jews and includes a line that says Jews are good "only in the chimney, only in smoke".

Foreign Minister Titus Corlatean vehemently objected to the song. "I strongly condemn any form of anti-Semitism, even more when it happens to be spread through a public media," he said.

The US embassy called the broadcast "an unacceptable display of anti-Semitism that must be condemned in the strongest, most unequivocal terms".

It urged all Romanians "to reject racism and to repudiate those that would defend such acts as an acceptable expression of cultural identity".

The Elie Wiesel Institute for Holocaust research in Romania expressed "strong disapproval" of the Christmas carol, which it said carried "an anti-Semitic message of rare gravity and vulgarity".

I'm skeptical of the claim that "jidovi" is a pejorative. I lived in that part of the world [Czech Republic] and jidovi in the Czech language just means "jews" with no negative connotation. The pastor at the local church used it regularly as did one jewess that I knew.
