(JEWISH GROUP) Spanish Jews warn map of local Jewish and 'Zionist' businesses will lead to violence
An online map identifying Jewish and Israeli-linked businesses in Catalonia has drawn sharp criticism from Spain’s Jewish community, who say it echoes antisemitic practices from Europe’s darkest chapters.
The project, called “Barcelonaz,” appeared this week on the French-hosted mapping platform GoGoCart, claiming to be “a collaborative map of the Zionist economy in Barcelona.”
Run by an anonymous group describing itself as “journalists, professors and students,” the interactive map lists more than 150 businesses, schools and organizations that it labels as “Zionist.” Its objective, it says, is to “understand how Zionism operates” in Catalonia and to call out and denounce what it describes as the impact of related investments in the region.
The map is public, collaborative and regularly updated, it says, encouraging users to donate and to submit additional locations that meet criteria defined by the site’s creators.
