Dagan also expressed his fear that the article could lead to violence against Jews.

...Swedish officials said Thursday that comments by (Israeli) Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman in response to the article "had aroused anger" in Stockholm...Lieberman on Thursday (Aug. 20) criticized Sweden for not intervening in "the blood libel against Jews." He said that "the affair is reminiscent of the state's [Sweden's] stand during World War II, when it also did not intervene."
