#GazaGenocide / That Herzog?
#Ynet is reporting that Israeli President Herzog’s and his wife will lead the 37th annual "March of the Living," which will take place between Auschwitz and Birkenau this Thursday.
Israel's Herzog participation in the Holocaust is clearly deeply hypocritical given his actions and statements. His rhetoric attributing collective blame for #Hamas’s actions to all Palestinians—a statement cited by the International Court of Justice—stands in contrast to the solemnity of commemorating the systematic extermination of Jews during the #Holocaust.
[...] What statesmanship is there in the signing of a lethal munition which, in the eyes of the world, represents Israel’s greatest sin in this war – sowing devastation in Gaza and killing innocents. --- Netta Ahituv wrote Haaretz.
The widely publicized image of Herzog signing a bomb shell intended for use in Gaza, an act condemned as indicative of genicidal intent, underscores a disturbing disconnect between remembering past atrocities while contributing to the suffering of civilians in #Gaza, where over 50,000 people, predominantly women and children, have been murdered so far by the #IDF.
