Caracas – An antisemitic
imagery appeared on the cover Las Verdades de Miguel, a
popular Venezuelan weekly journal.
A
recent edition of the journal published on August 12 features an image of a Jew
in religious garb with a Star of David made up of U.S. dollars with the
headline, “The Rabbis of CADIVI,” the Venezuelan government body which
administers legal currency exchange in Venezuela. In addition, the back cover
contains a column written by Miguel Salazar, the journal’s publisher, which
refers to an alleged report on the illicit use of currency exchange from some
companies “that belong to citizens of Israelite origin.”
