Why the League of Rights Economic Policy is Racist

The following is a statement issued by the B’nai B’rith Anti-Defamation Commission, a Jewish anti-racism watchdog.

The League of Rights economic policy ‘which has been identified as similar to that of One Nation’ is anti-semitic because it is predicated on the conspiratorial belief in which Jews are at the centre. According to this belief Jews were instrumental in the establishment of European banks and remain a powerful force today, controlling banks and advancing their own interests and causing the suffering of ordinary people. This is classic anti-semitism with the equation of Jews through their control of power and money causing the suffering of others. All this is consistent with the Leagues founder and national director Eric Butler’s book "The International Jew", an Australian equivalent of the notorious anti-semitic forgery of "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion".
