Jonathan Landau-Litewski is a Scottish Jew who controversially appeared in several news outlets after being dismissed from his place of employment in what he claimed was an act of antisemitism. According to an interview with The Times of Israel, Landau-Litewski claims he experienced a drastic shift in attitudes towards him as a result of the then current situation in Israel. He stated he was dismissed from employment after refusing to stop wearing his star of David pendant necklace and blamed his ex manager of a personal grudge towards Jewish people. As more media began picking up Landau-Litewskis story, it was revealed members of a Jewish community had announced their financial support to bring this case to the attention of an employment tribunal. Believed to be the first such public case in Britain, it was mentioned by former First Minister of Scotland Alex Salmond during his talk at Holyrood about the sharp increase of antisemitism in recent times. With widespread publicity, Landau-Litewski gained worldwide support and has since appeared in a recorded interview about his experiences of religious intolerance as the grandson of a Holocaust survivor for the University of Edinburgh. As reported by the media, an employment tribunal has been arranged although due to the nature of the case, the outcome is uncertain. ==References== *http://www.timesofisrael.com/scottish-jew-says-he-was-fired-for-wearing-magen-david/ The Times of Israel *http://www.thejc.com/news/uk-news/121597/gift-shop-sacked-him-now-he-gets-a-donation-sue The Jewish Chronicle *http://www.shalomlife.com/news/25214/scottish-jew-says-he-was-fired-from-his-job-for-wearing-a-star-of-david-pendant/ Shalom Life *http://pamelageller.com/2014/08/scotland-jewish-man-fired-wearing-star-david.html/ Pamela Geller 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jonathan Landau-Litewski」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
