Apple sells an Arabic language app version of the notorious antisemitic forgery The Protocols of the Elders of Zion in its iTunes store, and the Conference of European Rabbis wants Apple to stop doing it, the AP reports.
But Apple hasn't responded to the rabbis' request, which was also echoed by Yuli Edelsrein, Israel's Minister of Information. And Apple reportedly hasn't responded to numerous requests for comment from the Associated Press, either.
"'The Protocols of the Elders of Zion' can and should be available for academics to study in its proper context, (but) to disseminate such hateful invective as a [99 cent] mobile app is dangerous and inexcusable," conference president Rabbi Pinchas Goldschmidt, a Conference of European Rabbis, said in a statement quoted by the AP.
