'Jeremy Bowen's interview with Gaza aid chief was shameful – and he knows it
There was no excuse for the BBC to follow Israel in treating the head of UNRWA as though he is aligned with terrorism. This kind of craven journalism just makes Israel's job of genocide easier'

Jonathan Cook · Jeremy Bowen's interview with Gaza aid chief was shameful – and he knows itBy Jonathan Cook

Quoting Anat Kam on how for Israel, Eurovision is just another military operation, Yuval Rafael has simply been drafted to the reserves

[…] "Israel on its part did not learn the lesson — the problem is in the massacre, not in the song — and decided to invest even more in maintaining the illusion: not just an emotional song about 'October Rain,' but a Nova survivor, no less and no more. Let's see you now dare not to vote for her!"​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Anat Kam writes in Haaretz that the #Eurovision has become Israel's newest battlefront alongside its military operations. She criticizes Eurovision as Israel's "fake showcase window to the world" where it presents an idealized image that doesn't match reality. Sending Nova survivor Yuval Rafael this year continues this pattern, comparing her participation to being "drafted to the reserves" like many her age. The media is focusing on superficial coverage rather than questioning Israel's approach while "shocking images from Gaza continue to flood screens worldwide."

Have you ever wondered about the mendacious conflation of Israel and Zionism with Judaism?
"... it was during the late 1960s and early 1970s that we first see a sustained campaign by Zionist intellectuals and activists to codify this link through an expanded definition of antisemitism ..."

Mondoweiss · How the creation of the ‘New Antisemitism’ was used to shield Israel and attack the LeftChallenges to Zionism in the late 1960s and 1970s sparked an effort to redefine antisemitism focused on defending Israel while attacking the political Left. This resulted in the IHRA definition and the assault on Palestine activism we see today.

@TheCrookedBeat : you are replying to a spam-only channel.

Former IDF guy Avner Shalev (auschwitz.org/en/museum/auschw) and his Zionist mates (see their resolution at the bottom auschwitz.org/en/museum/auschw) do not read your comments. They don't care.

More examples: mastodon.world/@auschwitzmuseu and mastodon.world/@auschwitzmuseu (of many more).

It is a disgrace. They are pushing their hasbara spam making fools of Holocaust victims.

Either they are blind (unlikely) or the *current* Auschwitz maintainers DO NOT CARE about Holocaust victims.

This is, by far, not their first dehumanizing blunder.

Go ahead, click-cattle, and BOOST - and feel good about what you just did.

They're not Jews. Which is the reason that the *current* Auschwitz maintainers don't bother to look up their non-captivity pictures (which they do for Jewish Holocaust victims).

Neither do the *current* Auschwitz maintainers tell the story of these two Dutch men and they don't correct their database.

Prisoner number 23610 (victims.auschwitz.org/victims/) was known as "Sef Janssen". His birth name was "Jozef Antoon Hubert Janssen" (see openarchieven.nl/rhl:8b0c6e62-). His release is not even mentioned.

Prisoner number 23611 (victims.auschwitz.org/victims/) was not "Johann Giesen" but "Jan Giesen". His birth name was "Jan Pieter Antonius Giesen" (see archief.venlo.nl/collecties/bu). His release is not even mentioned.

Their story -in Dutch- can be found in (both are http links) roermondsepoort.nl/terug%20uit and roermondsepoort.nl/r-55-jansse (archives, using https links, in resp. web.archive.org/web/2024022410 and web.archive.org/web/2022100700).

Note: according to the second link, Sef Janssen was born on 21-06-1914 (Blerick), but that may be a typo in that article.

Sef Janssen and Jan Giesen are also mentioned in this Dutch thesis (PDF): pure.uva.nl/ws/files/145681402.

Eerst #AntiZionisme #AntiSemitisme noemen en nu janken? Moeders in Gaza zijn nu wanhopig mede door jullie.

Toen al geen haar beter dan Trump: mensen die opkomen voor de rechten van Palestijnen #AntiSemieten noemen en hen het zwijgen opleggen. En dit was niet de enige keer.

"#Auschwitz warns us of where ideologies of hatred can lead to."

Exactly.

From the bottom of auschwitz.org/en/museum/auschw:

❝

One of the board members is a former high-ranked member of the Israeli Destruction forces (auschwitz.org/en/museum/auschw).

They don't care about holocaust victims in their automated spam stream, which is only intended to make people feel sorry for Zionist Jews who live NOW.

One of my TikTok posts, went through their shadow ban and gained 17000 views, it attacked an army of IDF trolls posting disgusting comments. Reporting does nothing because TikTok tolerates them.

vm.tiktok.com/ZNd6VvvHa/

So instead of engaging with #hasbara #trolls, I respond with videos instead.

It bypasses #TikTok censorship & silences them because they don't comment on low traffic posts. 😂😂

If more details about this Holocaust victim are known, including a picture, why is it more important to broadcast such information on the internet (*) than to update his record in the Auschwitz' victims database in victims.auschwitz.org/victims/?

Not even his fate and date of death are mentioned there.

(*) Which at least I finds disrespectful, especially while so many Gazan children are being starved or murdered in other ways today.

Her birth name was not Eva Klein but Eva Schuit (see joodsmonument.nl/en/page/17759).

Her name became Eva Klein-Schuit once she married Günther Julius Klein.

Perhaps there was an Eva Klein who was also born on May 7. However, the only Eva Klein I could find in the online Auschwitz database, with no other details than name and date of birth, is in victims.auschwitz.org/victims/ - but according to that record she was born in 1927.

I could not find any information related to "Eva Schuit" or "Eva Klein-Schuit" in victims.auschwitz.org/victims/.

Respectless toots like the one above are not meant to remind people of Holocaust victims, let alone "Never Again" for anyone. Instead, it's #NeverAgainJewsOnly.

Edited May 8 to correct that the Eva Klein mentioned in the screenshot below was born in 1927, not 1912.

His first name was "Kurt" (not "Curt"), as can be seen in, for example, joodsmonument.nl/nl/page/18885.

If I look up his last name in the online Auschwitz victims database (victims.auschwitz.org/victims?), I only find his sister (victims.auschwitz.org/victims/) - with abhorrent minimal details.

What was Kurt's crime to not be included in the Auschwitz online database? And why are neither his wife nor daughter present? Why are you broadcasting such information instead of fixing your database? How is this not #Hasbara?

And why are naive people boosting such toots, while Smotrich wants all Gazans "CONCENTRATED" in a very small part of Gaza (timesofisrael.com/smotrich-say)? And while this nonsense remains at the bottom of auschwitz.org/en/museum/auschw:

Why can't I find Betty Vredenburg in victims.auschwitz.org/victims? ?

Also her parents have no records in the Auschwitz online database. And her father was not called "Abracham" but "Abraham" - according to, among other websites, collections.yadvashem.org/en/r:
" The Jewish Vredenburg family consisted of Abraham (b. 1914), Rachel (b. 1908), and their little daughter, Betty, who was born on May 6, 1940, only four days before the German invasion of the Netherlands."

A search for the last name (in victims.auschwitz.org/victims?) does not find any of the mentioned family members:

Where do the current Auschwitz maintainers obtain their data from to send these toots, why do they broadcast these toots (*), and why do they not update their database instead?

(*) I know. It's called #Hasbara. Compare the screenshots at the bottom of infosec.exchange/@ErikvanStrat.

Screenshot from https://victims.auschwitz.org/victims?pattern=BettyVredenburg A search for: Betty Vredenburg lead to the following result: Unfortunately, in the digital collection of names of victims of the Nazi German Concentration and Extermination Camp Auschwitz information about the person you were looking for was not found. The base material of lists of names are partially preserved files created by the SS camp administration. Most of the files created by the Germans were destroyed by them, therefore, unfortunately a complete list of KL Auschwitz does not exist. There is also a possibility that the preserved documents may have inaccuracies and errors. The information about the person you were looking for might be found with the help of archivists from the Analyses and Archival Information Office.
