As #ICE raids continue, let’s remember today is the anniversary (1942) of the Vel d’Hiv mass arrest and deportation action in Paris.

This was the largest “roundup” of Jewish civilians (13,000) in occupied France, and it was carried out by French authorities.

Important episode for anyone concerned w histories of collaboration, facilitation of #genocide, and the administrative contributions to mass atrocity.

Deportees were sent to Auschwitz (via Drancy). #Holocaust

"Unidentified vandals defaced two #Jewish sites in #Dolka, #Poland, over the weekend, spray-painting anti-#Israel slurs and #Nazi #swastikas on the remains of a local #synagogue and a memorial at the Jewish cemetery.

The synagogue, located in southeast Poland, was destroyed by the #Nazis during the #Holocaust, while the cemetery’s memorial, built in recent years by townspeople, symbolizes pre-Holocaust coexistence between Poles and #Jews."

1. I cringe a bit sharing Ynet, but I dont see this anywhere else yet. Important to be aware that it's a right-wing rag if you dont follow Jewish media outlets.
2. This story is why you see some Israel-critical Jews squint at gentile anti-Israel rhetoric and hesitate to take it at face value. Particularly when its presented alongside clearly fucked up stuff.

NEVER AGAIN?

Israel plans to confine Gaza residents in a closed concentration camp atop Rafah ruins, as the genocide continues. Defense Minister Israel Katz is calling it a "humanitarian zone," but it is a de facto concentration camp. Internees will not have freedom of movement or the ability to leave. They will be forced to move there, whether they want to, or not. Living conditions will be deplorable.

As a side note, for anyone unfamiliar with the slogan, “Never Again,” it was chanted by prisoners as they were liberated from Buchenwald at the end of World War II. It was used by Jewish Defense League founder Meir Kahane in his 1971 book, Never Again! A Program for Survival. It is a slogan often repeated by Jews, though there has been disagreement about whether it applied just to Jews and antisemitism, or whether it was a more universal slogan, meant to oppose all forms of fascism and genocide. The slogan originated from the 1927 poem, Masada, by Yitzhak Lamdan, about the siege of Masada, when the Sicarii (Jewish assassins who target Roman leaders and Jewish collaborators) were captured and chose to commit mass suicide rather than be captured.

“Just as Nazi Germany’s crimes could not have been committed without the technology IBM provided to track, round-up and murder Jews, Romani people and the disabled, Israel’s apartheid and genocide of the Palestinians would not be possible without Microsoft.”

“International Business Machines, and its president Thomas J. Watson, committed genocide by any standard. It was never about the antisemitism. It was never about the National Socialism. It was always about the money. Business was their middle name.”
