Genocide of Jews is a Feature, Not a Bug of the Anti-Israel Movement

After 19 months of Israel’s war against at least six terror entities threatening its very existence, the common refrain, “I’m not antisemitic, I’m anti-Zionist,” adopted by those supporting those entities rings hollow.

Why else would we see Jewish institutions, from synagogues to elementary schools, and individual Jews targeted irrespective of their support for Israel? How can protests against an exhibit honoring young people, civilians, who were murdered at the Nova music festival on October 7, 2023, be justified?

When protesters drop their guard, we hear their real sentiments: In a coffee shop in Brooklyn, “I think Hitler was on to something.” On the streets of Australia, “Gas the Jews, gas the Jews!” In Ft Lauderdale, Florida, formerly the Spring Break capital of fun in the sun, we now hear, “Go back to the oven! You need a big oven.”

Apologists are quick to call these anomalies. But are they? Anyone supporting Hamas, October 7 or the “resistance” is promoting a terrorist group whose very charter calls for the complete annihilation of Jews worldwide.

Genocide of Jews is a feature, not a bug, of this movement – and who better to represent it than Adolf Htller with his success at enacting the “final solution,” a deadly concept that not only has made a comeback but is now normalized: “There is only one solution! Intifada revolution!”

Melanie Phillips writes how the Palestinians “are the literal heirs to the Nazi party.” She continues:

“They were first incited to the genocide of the Jews by the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin al-Husseini, who entered into an alliance with Adolf Hitler and pledged to exterminate every Jew in the Middle East.

“Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas, whose doctorate was in Holocaust denial, has publicly hailed al-Husseini as his role model. Sermons, pamphlets and cartoons pumped out by the P.A. are riddled with deranged and paranoid images straight out of the Nazi play-book demonizing Jews as blood-suckers, parasites, vermin or octopuses trapping the world in their tentacles.

“These images, which have indoctrinated generations of Palestinian Arabs into a hysterical and murderous hatred of Jews, seem just like Nazi propaganda because they are.”
