Dat Trump zegt dat hij alle Palestijnen uit Gaza weg wil hebben. En dat Netanyahu daar glimlachend naast zit. Dat zegt alles over de intenties van dat regime. Hoezo zelfverdediging!
❞
Nou, volgens de ultieme experts op dit gebied gaat het wel degelijk om zelfverdediging!
Zo blijkt althans uit een stukje in de verklaring van de "International Auschwitz Council" m.b.t. de "tragic events in Israel, approved by [sic] circulation on 18 november 2023", te vinden onderaan https://www.auschwitz.org/en/museum/auschwitz-council/:
❝
Threatened in its existence, the State of Israel has the right to SELF-DEFENSE in accordance with international law and the principles of humanitarianism. The existence of a free, sovereign, and democratic Jewish State is one of the pillars of world peace.
❞
De beheerders van een voormalig concentratiekamp zullen toch ALS GÉÉN ÁNDER weten wat genocide en etnisch zuiveren betekent? En dus wat de Israeli Destruction Forces doet, dat beslist niet is, en dus wel pure zelfverdediging moet zijn?
Bovendien lijkt het onbestaanbaar dat al die zeer vele mensen, die toots van het Auschwitz Memorial (aka Auschwitz Museum aka Auschwitz Council) uit hun spam-stroom (*) boosten, het bij het verkeerde eind hebben?
(*) Zie https://mastodon.world/@auschwitzmuseum: elke 3 uur één toot, meestal met weerloze Holocaust-slachtoffers die ongevraagd worden misbruikt voor Israëlische propaganda-doeleinden. Nb. met veel stomme fouten daarin - de plaatjes hieronder tonen enkele voorbeelden - druk evt. op Alt voor hulp bij die "zoekplaatjes" (eerder zag ik een volwassen vrouw die vóór haar tweede levensjaar zou zijn vergast, zie https://infosec.exchange/@ErikvanStraten/113883970326027898).
Ook Chris Aalberts (https://x.com/ChrisAalberts/status/1841442467071066303) was alleen maar positief over Auschwitz in https://jonet.nl/het-kan-niet-druk-genoeg-zijn-in-auschwitz-reportage/: "De rondleider wil dat we ons realiseren dat alle slachtoffers een naam en een verhaal hebben".
Nb. De EJA (European Jewish Association) had hem uitgenodigd. Begin vorig jaar was Elon Musk trouwens ook in Auschwitz op uitnodiging van de EJA, uit https://ejassociation.eu/eja/musk-gives-tentative-yes-to-auschwitz-visit-with-european-jewish-association/:

But to really understand what the end station of antisemitism looks like, to really understand the depths to which the freedom of the Jewish people was denied and obliterated, to fully understand why we Jews are so worried about antisemitism, a visit to Auschwitz is a necessary and life-changing experience.
“We have brought many European Leaders to Auschwitz-Birkenau, many of whom have never been, and it changes them. It drives them to fight the hate.
“Mr Musk has said he supports the Jewish people, and he supports Israel. I believe that him visiting our ground zero will not only help him understand better the battle ahead against antisemitism and what is at stake, but will reassure Jews everywhere that he is taking the battle seriously.

Musk said that had there been social media at the time of World War II, the Holocaust "would have been impossible to hide" and lives could have been saved.

Israel is fighting Hamas, which steals humanitarian aid, uses it to rebuild its war machine, and hides behind civilians.
We categorically reject the claim of “politicization of humanitarian aid” as stated in the E3’s statement.
Article 70 of the First Additional Protocol to the Geneva Conventions requires aid when “the civilian population is not adequately supplied.” During the 42-day ceasefire, 25,000 aid trucks entered Gaza. Israel is monitoring the situation on the ground, and there is no shortage of aid in Gaza.
According to Article 23 of the Fourth Geneva Convention, a side is not obliged to allow in aid if it is “likely to assist the military or economic efforts of the enemy.” Hamas hijacked the humanitarian aid to rebuild its terror machine.
The E3 statement fails to mention the most important thing: Hamas is the one targeting Israeli civilians while hiding behind Palestinian civilians. Instead, the E3 statement chose to accuse Israel of strikes on humanitarian personnel and healthcare facilities — this is morally twisted and wrong. As the war against Hamas continues, Israel is taking all necessary precautions. [...]

[...] In cases where incidents occur, as tragically happens in any war, the IDF conducts thorough and transparent investigations and draws the necessary conclusions. All condemnations should be directed at Hamas, which hides in hospitals and behind civilians.
Unbelievably, the E3 statement addresses only in passing the fact that Hamas still holds 59 hostages in inhumane conditions underground — starving and torturing them. This is unacceptable and inhumane.
The so-called balance that the E3 statement is trying to create between Israel and Hamas is ethically outrageous.
Hamas started this war, and Hamas is responsible for its continuation and for the suffering of both Palestinians and Israelis.
The war can end tomorrow if the hostages are released and Hamas lays down its weapons.
