Ten Holocaust survivors condemn Israel’s Gaza genocide
JVL Introduction
Ten Holocaust survivors speak out against the exploitation of the Holocaust to justify the genocide in Gaza.
They endorse the recent statement by Aryeh Neier, co-founder of Human Rights Watch, that using accusations of antisemitism to attack Israel’s critics “debases the whole concept of antisemitism”.
It is, they say, “simply wrong to claim that it’s antisemitic to oppose Israeli genocide, or that “calling for equal rights for Jews and Arabs ‘from the river to the sea’ is antisemitic”.
The Guardian rejected the letter. All credit to Mondoweiss for publishing it.

So The Guardian rejected this letter.. I’ve shared this article and outed The Guardian for its cowardly attempt to silence Anti Zionist Jews inc Holocaust survivors.. a shocking highlight of how MSM in UK has whitewashed Israeli occupation and ethnic cleansing of Palestine.. and that they’re still doing it
The Guardian refused to publish this cogent and moving letter? What an insult to these Holocaust survivors!
Not only the Guardian but also the Independent and NYT. So shameful. Has our mainstream journalism ever been worse??
Solidarity and praise to Stephen and the other survivors making this wonderful stand for humanity.
