Fighting antisemitism as a particularist cause rather than universal principle draws republican criticism

Evidence

You are making a mistake in denying the universality of the struggle against racism and in mixing the fight against antisemitism with unilateral support for a state. In refusing to open your demonstration to organisations other than those which make up the CRIF, you make a necessarily universal fight into a communitarian step, thus denying the principles of the Republic’: Qu’est-ce que la Ligue des droits de l’homme? — James Renton, Ben Gidley (eds.), Antisemitism and Islamophobia in Europe, 1463
