Founders of the Genocide and Holocaust Studies Crisis Network Taner Akçam, Marianne Hirsch, and Michael Rothberg speak out:

"The emergency is in front of us. And yet, some prominent scholars of the Holocaust continue to engage in open denialism or outright approval of mass atrocities perpetrated by Israel. ...

We are determined to challenge this moral and political capitulation."

Who Says Israel Is Committing a Genocide in Gaza? Everyone on This List

Robert Reich cites Orit Kamir, whose mother was starved in the Lvov ghetto in Poland under Nazi occupation, but who survived starvation while seeing others die from it:

"The Israeli public's silence is a betrayal not only of the entire world of values it claims to hold; it is an absolute betrayal of Holocaust victims, in whose name we demanded a state for ourselves where we could ensure our existence."

@wdlindsy

The host of the server I'm on, a German one, has badgered me about posting material like this.

'Holocaust inversion,' they call it. 'Antisemitic'.

So I don't post it myself anymore, not directly. They'd restrain me.

But folks, it’s not going away.

Reality has a way of seeping through the walls and ramparts of the lies and delusions we tell.

Here we see yet again.

The truth leaking in.

@f800gecko From the time the horrific and totally heinous Hamas attack occurred on October 7 last year, I immediately saw major bullying online and at instances here in which tremendous pressure was exerted to shut down all conversation that did not trend in a Zionist direction. Even leading Jewish voices moving against that bullying were shut down. Anytime people want to shut down morally necessary conversations in the name of an imposed morality, they show that their morality is empty.
