The Anti-Defamation League has voiced concern about blatant
anti-Semitism in the Venezuelan presidential campaign directed against
opposition candidate Henrique Capriles Radonski, who is running
against incumbent Hugo Chávez. An article attempted to discredit the
candidate's credentials based on his Jewish ancestry. The article,
titled The Enemy is Zionism, also promoted the classic anti-Semitic
stereotype of a global Jewish cabal reminiscent of the Protocols of
the Elders of Zion.
