Mr Speaker. racism. ethnic hatred. and xenophobia are the bane of any civilized society. Our own country has had to battle with these phenomena in the past and continues to do so today. In Europe. with the end of the Cold War. we have unfortunately seen a resurrection of racist attitudes and activities that had not been eradicated with the defeat of Nazism. just driven underground. In Russia. a nation whose past has seen terrible instances of antiSemitism both in the Tsarist and Communist eras. antiSemitism had seemingly been exiled to the pages of rabidly nationalistic newspapers catering only to the political fringes.
