Rabbi Marmur's two quotes are as follows:
“Its mayor, Ilmar Reepalu, himself came as a small child to Sweden with his refugee parents from Estonia. He has now become one of the supporters of the many Muslims who more recently settled there. Allegedly to please them, he has turned against the city's 1,500 Jews.
And:
“The Bible tells that oppression came when “a new king arose over Egypt who did not know Joseph,” once a welcome and most distinguished immigrant. Though the comparison flatters Reepalu, it may nevertheless be apt to reflect that Malmo now has a mayor who's turning the harbour of hope into a pit of prejudice.”
In the interest of unbiased and truthful coverage I hope that those with a command of Swedish will either write in to this newspaper or email the undersigned at tonu@eesti.ca
