Barbara Spectre has garnered attention for her quote, from an interview in an [[IBA News]] report about the wave of anti-semitism in Sweden due to muslim immigration.{{Citation |title=IBA News – The Jewish Community of Sweden (Barbara Lerner Spectre) |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7Z_CE7qTMU |access-date=2023-12-14 |language=en}} Spectre stated her view that the rise of anti-semitism is directly related to the leading role Jews are playing in the transformation of Europe into a multicultural society.{{refn|group=note|Full quote: “I think there is a resurgence of anti-semitism, because at this point in time Europe has not yet learned how to be multicultural. And I think we are going to be part of the throes of that transformation, which must take place. Europe is not going to be the monolithic societies that they once were in the last century. Jews are going to be at the centre of that. It’s a huge transformation for Europe to make. They are now going into a multicultural mode and Jews will be resented because of our leading role. But without that leading role and without that transformation, Europe will not survive.”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7Z_CE7qTMU&ab_channel=CatPhuckers&t=20m37s}} Numerous clips of the interview have since been uploaded on [[Youtube]], garnering hundreds of thousands of views and eliciting a far-right nationalist reaction, in connection with the purported Jewish role in the [[white genocide conspiracy theory]].{{Citation |title=Barbara Lerner Spectre calls for destruction of Christian European ethnic societies |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G45WthPTo24 |access-date=2023-12-14 |language=en}}https://www.algemeiner.com/2016/03/18/recognizing-antisemitism-is-the-first-step-to-fighting-it/https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2013/12/that_barbara_spectre_video.html Her statement has also been parodied in a Youtube video “Anti-Racist Hitler”, by a white nationalist radio station [[White Rabbit Radio]], garnering 180 000 views in 2013, before its removal from the channel.https://www.splcenter.org/hatewatch/2013/07/02/white-rabbit-radio-font-racist-genocide-claims-run-michiganderhttps://www.youtube.com/@WhiteRabbitRadioTV/videos |
