A New Shoah: The Untold Story of Israel's Victims of Terrorism
Every day in Israel, memorials are being held for the victims of Islamic fundamentalism. Since the “Second Intifada” began ten years ago, Palestinian terrorists have claimed 1,700 Israeli civilians. This equates to a staggering 70,000 victims, when adjusted to the United States population for scale.
In A New Shoah, Italian journalist Giulio Meotti’s extensive interviews with those Israeli families torn apart by hundreds of daily attacks in buses, cafés, kibbutzim, restaurants, night clubs, and religious shrines appear for the first time. A New Shoah reveals the stories, ideals, and faces behind the statistics, from the anticommunist dissidents who fled Moscow, to the American businessman who left everything behind to live the dream of Jewish pioneers.
The remarkable individuals who make up A New Shoah reveal the raison d'être of the State of Israel and make a definitive case for its safeguarding. Judaism teaches that for survivors, the hazkarah, or the act of remembering, is the only way to defy the murder of Jewish people by their enemies. When we read these pages and remember, we empower Israel’s resistance to terror.

This invaluable, informative and harrowing digest tells the story little told before, about the victims of the terror war against Israel and her people.
It shows you what a prejudiced media will not dare to let you see, because their agenda is to prepare the world for genocide of the Jews of Israel, through a monstrous propaganda machine, never seen since Goebbels and Der Sterner paved the way for the Holocaust.
The book is dedicated to the victims of Arab terror , and contains a harrowing and heart wrenching portrait of the horrific terror faced by the people of Israel, since Yasser Arafat launched a war of genocide against the Israeli people In this he has been fully backed , in his evil plans , by the international media, world academia,the international left, the United Nations and other powerful global interests.
As Roger Scruton tells us in his forward to this work, the 'blame Israel' approach has become the standard line of the UN, EU and world community. But the truth is that "Israel is not the cause but the target of the current belligerence, and there can be no solution to the Middle East that does not place the blame on those who live by hatred, and who have nothing to offer save destruction".
The author of this work threads together the memory of the Nazi Holocaust of 1941-1945, in which 6 million Jews in Europe were annihilated, and reminds us that the current war to cleanse the land of Israel of it's Jewish presence is part of the continuation of the same old evil.
this is because once again Jews are being murdered simply for being Jews, this time for being Jews living in their ancient homeland.
As the Nazis dehumanized the Jews before the Holocaust was launched so the Arab and Leftist media and educational networks demonize the Jews of Israel in the same way.
Israel right from the start accepted the United Nations partition plan for Palestine but the Arabs violently refused it. Israel magnanimously offered the land through Ehud Barak's offer at Camp David in 2000 and Ariel Sharon's unilateral withdrawal from Gaza in 2005 and each time recieved a violent response. Making it quite clear that the issue is not about land but about the very existence of Israel, the very existence of the Jewish people. Meotti points out that The silence of Chelmno and the silence after suicide bombings, the zyklon B of the Nazis and the suicide belts on Hamas have this in common: the total destruction of the victim".
In March 2008 Arab terrorists murdered eight young Jewish seminary students at study of the Torah.
Shortly after this a survey by the Palestinian Center for Policy and Media Research revealed that 84% of Palestinians supported the attack!
Itamar Marcus of Palestinian Media Watch points out that the leaders of the propaganda for Hamas and Palestinian Authority TV (with their televised sermons, cartoons, comic books and school books) have constructed a machine to incite mass murder similar to that of the Hutu journalists who spearheaded the genocide of Tutsis in Rwanda. "The Islamic refers to Jews as the sons of pigs and monkeys to be exterminated just as Hutu supremacists spoke of Tutsis as 'serpents' to be crushed.
Hamas and Hezbollah, two of the terorist organizations that work for the physical annihilation of Israel describe Jews as 'pigs', 'cancer'. 'garbage','germs' 'parasites' and 'microbes'.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, in continually vowing to '"wipe Israel off the map" for which he is building a vast nuclear arsenal without the world or the Obama administration lifting a finger to stop him, uses the expression 'dead rats'
Not only do the rabid anti-Zionists who boycott and demonize Israel display gross and racist anti-Semitism , but they also responsible to a large extent for terror against Israeli women and children.
This is because Moral denigration encourages physical elimination
It is entirely in keeping in the character of Islamists or rabidly leftist anti-Zionists that they should carry a rabid hatred of Israel to the point of defending the killers of Israeli children.
There is certainly.
The mainstream and left-wing world media are also extremely culpable for fomenting mass killing of Jewish men, women and children in Israel.
As Claude Lanzmann director of the monumental film Shoah wrote "When 'settlers'
were killed it was intolerable to read in the newspapers stuck in a corner of the page 'settler women killed' or worse 'settler child strangled' as if the twofold stigma of Jew and settler made the murder understandable, justified it and dismissed it from our attention".
This book carries the stories of the victims.
Thousands of Israeli Jewish men, women and children have died from bombs, bullets or knife attacks, and thousands of others have been maimed, blinded, orphaned, widowed and terrorized.
In 2003 on the Eve of the Jewish New Year, seven month old Shaked Abraham was shot dead in her crib by an Arab murderer who forced his way into her parent's house as the family was celebrating the New Year.
A ten-month-old Jewish baby, Shalhevet Pass, was shot in her father's arms by an Arab sniper in 2001.
The following year, a five-year-old girl, Danielle Shefi, was shot to death at point blank range by an Arab killer, while cowering under her parents' bed.
That same year, two boys, four- and five-years old, Matan and Noam Ohayon where shot dead together with their mother as she read them a bedtime story, in a kibbutz, by Arab terrorists.
In the summer of 2005 pregnant Jewish women Tali Hatuel and her four terrified little daughters were executed at point blank range by terrorists of the Popular Resistance Committees, one after the other after Tali's car had been spun off the road by gunfire.
Then there are the thousands of suicide bombing perpetrated by Arab terrorists in malls, restaurants, schools, buses and everywhere else where Jewish men, women and children in Israel gathered.Victims were killed, burned, maimed and shards of metal infected with rat poison lodged into their bodies.
Unlike a traditional war zone, the victims are often riding, sitting in schools or enjoying a meal.
So far 128 Jewish children have been killed, 9 of them less than a year old, 9 pregnant women have been murdered, 886 children have lost one parent and 31 have lost both. The youngest victim of terror was just one day old.
There has been no condemnation of these atrocities by the United Nation or it's commissars such as Jimmy Carter, Desmond Tutu and Richard Goldstone.
At the Dolphinarium Disco on June 1, 2001, 21 Israeli teenagers were killed and 132 wounded, many maimed for life, after a suicide bomber blew himself up in their midst
Hamas claimed responsibility and celebrated the attack.
Shaina Dorfman whose grandfather was a rabbi and was burned by the Nazis in Russia, lost her only daughter in an attack on a night club in Tel Aviv but believes in the Jewish saying, Yiyhe Beseder "Everything will turn out alright'
In Netanya in March 2001, in the single greatest massacre of Jews after World War II, 37 Jewish men, women and children died after a Hamas bomber detonated himself during a seder or celebration of the Jewish passover (Pesach)
Bestselling author Naomi Ragen wrote of the attack "It seems to me to epitomize the the savagery and barbarity of our enemies who love death. They say so openly. I am not a vengeful person. but I never want to hear the word 'peace' again as long as I live. It has become a codeword for leaving your selves vulnerable to the attacks of your enemies, who can only be defeated by war. People forget that Israel is home to the highest number of Holocaust survivors in the world, and when terrorists target Israelis, they are targeting survivors and that is a particular obscenity. Europeans built memorial to dead victims of the Nazis but they seem perfectly OK with the idea that the living victims or their children are being terrorized and slaughtered by terrorist savages".
Ever victim of the terror attacks that since 2000 have killed thousands of Israeli has a name and a family, just as victims of the Holocaust did.
The Sbarro Restaurant massacre was a Palestinian terrorist attack on a pizzeria in downtown Jerusalem on 9 August 2001, in which 15 civilians were killed, including 7 children and a pregnant woman, and 130 wounded.
A survivor describes he 'saw a man lying on the street shaking like he was being electrocuted, and child that looked dead in another man's arms... a woman soldier sat motionless in shock inside with the table that should have been in front of her gone'.
blood pooled on the floor and stained the pitted plaster walls. Two strollers were overturned on the pavement amid broken glasses, blood splotches, fragments of tables, a charred chair back, a half open purse with a small teddy bear as a good luck charm. "The most striking thing I saw which I will never forget, was a child sitting in a stroller outside of a shop, he was dead and soon afterwards his mother came out and started screaming".
These are only a few of the hundreds of cases of Jewish men, women and children murdered by the Arab/Islamic terror war documented in this book. As are the many maimed, traumatized, widowed and orphaned
Over 25% percent of Jewish children living in Israel do not have enough food to eat as a result of the Intifada (war of extermination) waged by Yasser Arafat, along with the economic boycotts initiated by sympathizers of the Palestinian plans of genocide against the Israeli people.
The author describes the terror suffered by the people of the town of Sderot, where Hamas rockets shot from the Gaza strip have created a climate of fear and crippled the town.
Children growing up in Sderot suffer all the symptoms of traumatization that children suffer from war.
Hamas and it's allied terror groups deliberately target children on their way to school in Sderot and other Jewish communities near the Israeli border with Gaza.
Regarding Sderot, Israeli Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu has pointed out regarding this daily war to destroy Israel that "There is only one example in history in which thousands of rockets have been fired at a civilian population. It was when the Nazis launched rockets at English cities during the Second World War. In that war the Allies razed German cities to the ground, leaving hundreds of thousands dead. Israel decided to behave differently".
The author reminds us that decoding media bias begins and the war against Israel begins where the effects of Islamic terrorism are concealed
Israel is denied by the world community the right to defend her people like a boxer who is expected to fight with his hands tied behind his back.
Gabi Ladowski whose brother was murdered in a Hamas bombing of a student cafe at Ben-Gurion university on July 31 2002 pointed out that "The Israeli leadership is far from perfect but it does not incite the killing of one's neighbours , it does not kidnap, it does not kidnap or throw stones at passerby. The people of Israel have a long history of victory over destruction, annihilation, hatred and persecution. The right way is love of life, good works and education and doing good for humanity".
Israel is a refuge for the Jews. If Israel had existed before the Shoah millions of Jewish lives would have been saved.
Every decent human on this earth will stand with Israel in her hour of need.

The people of Israel have a long history of victory over destruction, annihilation, hatred and persecution. The right way is love of life, good works and education and doing good for humanity".
Israel is a refuge for the Jews. If Israel had existed before the Shoah millions of Jewish lives would have been saved.
Every decent human on this earth will stand with Israel in her hour of need.
Merged review:
This invaluable, informative and harrowing digest tells the story little told before, about the victims of the terror war against Israel and her people.
It shows you what a prejudiced media will not dare to let you see, because their agenda is to prepare the world for genocide of the Jews of Israel, through a monstrous propaganda machine, never seen since Goebbels and Der Sterner paved the way for the holocaust.
The book is dedicated to the victims of Arab terror , and contains a harrowing and heartwrenching portrait of the horrific terror faced by the people of Israel, since Yasser Arafat launched a war of genocide against the Israeli people In this he has been fully backed , in his evil plans , by the international media, world academia,the international left, the United Nations and other powerful global interests.
As Roger Scruton tells us in his forward to this work, the 'blame Israel' approach has become the standard line of the UN, EU and world community. But the truth is that "Israel is not the cause but the target of the current belligerence, and there can be no solution to the Middle East that does not place the blame on those who live by hatred, and who have nothing to offer save destruction".
The author of this work threads together the memory of the Nazi Holocaust of 1941-1945, in which 6 million Jews in Europe were annihilated, and reminds us that the current war to cleanse the land of Israel of it's Jewish presence is part of the continuation of the same old evil.
this is because once again Jews are being murdered simply for being Jews, this time for being Jews living in their ancient homeland.
As the Nazis dehumanized the Jews before the Holocaust was launched so the Arab and Leftist media and educational networks demonize the Jews of Israel in the same way.
Israel right from the start accepted the United Nations partition plan for Palestine but the Arabs violently refused it. Israel magnanimously offered the land through Ehud Barak's offer at Camp David in 2000 and Ariel Sharon's unilateral withdrawal from Gaza in 2005 and each time recieved a violent response. Making it quite clear that the issue is not about land but about the very existence of Israel, the very existence of the Jewish people. Meotti points out that The silence of Chelmno and the silence after suicide bombings, the zyklon B of the Nazis and the suicide belts on Hamas have this in common: the total destruction of the victim".
In March 2008 Arab terrorists murdered eight young Jewish seminary students at study of the Torah.
Shortly after this a survey by the Palestinian Center for Policy and Media Research revealed that 84% of Palestinians supported the attack!
Itamar Marcus of Palestinian Media Watch points out that the leaders of the propaganda for Hamas and Palestinian Authority TV (with their televised sermons, cartoons, comic books and school books) have constructed a machine to incite mass murder similar to that of the Hutu journalists who spearheaded the genocide of Tutsis in Rwanda. "The Islamic refers to Jews as the sons of pigs and monkeys to be exterminated just as Hutu supremacists spoke of Tutsis as 'serpents' to be crushed.
Hamas and Hezbollah, two of the terorist organizations that work for the physical annihilation of Israel describe Jews as 'pigs', 'cancer'. 'garbage','germs' 'parasites' and 'microbes'.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, in continually vowing to '"wipe Israel off the map" for which he is building a vast nuclear arsenal without the world or the Obama administration lifting a finger to stop him, uses the expression 'dead rats'
Not only do the rabid anti-Zionists who boycott and demonize Israel display gross and racist anti-Semitism , but they also responsible to a large extent for terror against Israeli women and children.
This is because Moral denigration encourages physical elimination
It is entirely in keeping in the character of Islamists or rabidly leftist anti-Zionists that they should carry a rabid hatred of Israel to the point of defending the killers of Israeli children.
There is certainly.
The mainstream and left-wing world media are also extremely culpable for fomenting mass killing of Jewish men, women and children in Israel.
As Claude Lanzmann director of the monumental film Shoah wrote "When 'settlers'
were killed it was intolerable to read in the newspapers stuck in a corner of the page 'settler women killed' or worse 'settler child strangled' as if the twofold stigma of Jew and settler made the murder understandable, justified it and dismissed it from our attention".
This book carries the stories of the victims.
Thousands of Israeli Jewish men, women and children have died from bombs, bullets or knife attacks, and thousands of others have been maimed, blinded, orphaned, widowed and terrorized.
In 2003 on the Eve of the Jewish New Year, seven month old Shaked Abraham was shot dead in her crib by an Arab murderer who forced his way into her parent's house as the family was celebrating the New Year.
A ten-month-old Jewish baby, Shalhevet Pass, was shot in her father's arms by an Arab sniper in 2001.
The following year, a five-year-old girl, Danielle Shefi, was shot to death at point blank range by an Arab killer, while cowering under her parents' bed.
That same year, two boys, four- and five-years old, Matan and Noam Ohayon where shot dead together with their mother as she read them a bedtime story, in a kibbutz, by Arab terrorists.
In the summer of 2005 pregnant Jewish women Tali Hatuel and her four terrified little daughters were executed at point blank range by terrorists of the Popular Resistance Committees, one after the other after Tali's car had been spun off the road by gunfire.
Then there are the thousands of suicide bombing perpetrated by Arab terrorists in malls, restaurants, schools, buses and everywhere else where Jewish men, women and children in Israel gathered.Victims were killed, burned, maimed and shards of metal infected with rat poison lodged into their bodies.
Unlike a traditional war zone, the victims are often riding, sitting in schools or enjoying a meal.
So far 128 Jewish children have been killed, 9 of them less than a year old, 9 pregnant women have been murdered, 886 children have lost one parent and 31 have lost both. The youngest victim of terror was just one day old.
There has been no condemnation of these atrocities by the United Nation or it's commissars such as Jimmy Carter, Desmond Tutu and Richard Goldstone.
At the Dolphinarium Disco on June 1, 2001, 21 Israeli teenagers were killed and 132 wounded, many maimed for life, after a suicide bomber blew himself up in their midst
Hamas claimed responsibility and celebrated the attack.
Shaina Dorfman whose grandfather was a rabbi and was burned by the Nazis in Russia, lost her only daughter in an attack on a night club in Tel Aviv but believes in the Jewish saying, Yiyhe Beseder "Everything will turn out alright'
In Netanya in March 2001, in the single greatest massacre of Jews after World War II, 37 Jewish men, women and children died after a Hamas bomber detonated himself during a seder or celebration of the Jewish passover (Pesach)
Bestseling author Naomi Ragen wrote of the attack "It seems to me to epitomize the the savagery and barbarity of our enemies who love death. They say so openly. I am not a vengeful person. but I never want to hear the word 'peace' again as long as I live. It has become a codeword for leaving your selves vulenrable to the attacks of your enemies, who can only be defeated by war. People forget that Israel is home to the highest number of Holocaust survivors in the world, and when terrorists target Israelis, they are targeting survivors and that is a particular obscenity. Europeans built memorial to dead victims of the Nazis but they seem perfectly OK with the idea that the living victims or their children are being terrorized and slaughtered by terrorist savages".
Ever victim of the terror attacks that since 2000 have killed thousands of Israeli has a name and a family, just as victims of the Holocaust did.
The Sbarro Restaurant massacre was a Palestinian terrorist attack on a pizzeria in downtown Jerusalem on 9 August 2001, in which 15 civilians were killed, including 7 children and a pregnant woman, and 130 wounded.
A survivor describes he 'saw a man lying on the street shaking like he was being electrocuted, and child that looked dead in another man's arms... a woman soldier sat motionless in shock inside with the table that should have been in fron

Ever victim of the terror attacks that since 2000 have killed thousands of Israeli has a name and a family, just as victims of the Holocaust did.
The Sbarro Restaurant massacre was a Palestinian terrorist attack on a pizzeria in downtown Jerusalem on 9 August 2001, in which 15 civilians were killed, including 7 children and a pregnant woman, and 130 wounded.
A survivor describes he 'saw a man lying on the street shaking like he was being electrocuted, and child that looked dead in another man's arms... a woman soldier sat motionless in shock inside with the table that should have been in front of her gone'.
blood pooled on the floor and stained the pitted plaster walls. Two strollers were overturned on the pavement amid broken glasses, blood splotches, fragments of tables, a charred chair back, a half open purse with a small teddy bear as a good luck charm. "The most striking thing I saw which I will never forget, was a child sitting in a stroller outside of a shop, he was dead and soon afterwards his mother came out and started screaming".
These are only a few of the hundreds of cases of Jewish men, women and children murdered by the Arab/Islamic terror war documented in this book. As are the many maimed, traumatized, widowed and orphaned
Over 25% percent of Jewish children living in Israel do not have enough food to eat as a result of the Intifada (war of extermination) waged by Yasser Arafat, along with the economic boycotts initiated by sympathizers of the Palestinian plans of genocide against the Israeli people.
The author describes the terror suffered by the people of the town of Sderot, where Hamas rockets shot from the Gaza strip have created a climate of fear and crippled the town.
Children growing up in Sderot suffer all the symptoms of traumatization that children suffer from war.
Hamas and it's allied terror groups deliberately target children on their way to school in Sderot and other Jewish communities near the Israeli border with Gaza.
Regarding Sderot, Israeli Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu has pointed out regarding this daily war to destroy Israel that "There is only one example in history in which thousands of rockets have been fired at a civilian population. It was when the Nazis launched rockets at English cities during the Second World War. In that war the Allies razed German cities to the ground, leaving hundreds of thousands dead. Israel decided to behave differently".
The author reminds us that decoding media bias begins and the war against Israel begins where the effects of Islamic terrorism are concealed
Israel is denied by the world community the right to defend her people like a boxer who is expected to fight with his hands tied behind his back.
Gabi Ladowski whose brother was murdered in a Hamas bombing of a student cafe at Ben-Gurion university on July 31 2002 pointed out that "The Israeli leadsership is far from perfect but it does not incite the killing of one's neighbours , it does not kidnap, it does not kidnap or throw stones at passerby. The people of Israel have a long history of victory over destruction, annihilation, hatred and persecution. The right way is love of life, good works and education and doing good for humanity".
Israel is a refuge for the Jews. If Israel had existed before the Shoah millions of Jewish lives would have been saved.
Every decent human on this earth will stand with Israel in her hour of need.

This is truly a fine book. "A New Shoah" serves a very unique (and tragically vital) purpose; it serves to catalogue the individual stories of some of the victims of the new Jewish holocaust: the victims of Islamist terrorism in the state of Israel. It would be easy for these victims to slide out of recent memory and headlines as the years pass and we are further inured to the frequent violence of these attacks, which makes what Giulio Meotti has done that much more important.
"A New Shoah" is by no means an easy read, but it is an important read. If the reader has a similar experience to mine, the names and stories will at first shock and horrify, then overwhelm, and by the end of the book the stream of innocent victims will merge into the larger stream of casualties of anti-Semitic violence which stretches back to the earliest days of mankind. I was consistently amazed to learn more about the ever-hardening resolve of the Israeli nation in the face of this violence. That the determination of a nation was being ossified in the furnaces of terror and hatred.
This book is inspiring, mournful, and vital. May God bless the nation of Israel and her people as they continue to face the hatred of her neighbors and enemies.
Thanks for taking the time to read my review.

I thought this book would be more of a historical survey of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. It isn't. It is a collection of the stories of the many victims of terrorism in Israel. I initially wanted it to be more - an explanation, a background, a context - but I realized it was intended to be not much more than what it is on its face. First, because the author is an Italian journalist who is writing to an anti-Semitic European audience, but second, because not all things have an explanation.
As a history and poli-sci student, I want to find explanations for everything, including terrorism in Israel. But as I read story after story of innocent lives brutally ended, whole families annihilated by one suicide bomber, survivors of Auschwitz and Buchenwald murdered in their homeland, what explanation can satisfy?

This was a very had to read book but it was really awesome that the stories of so many of the victims are being told. I think this would be a good book for Christians to read so they would understand, really understand that Jewish people are going through. I came away with a sense of sadness and wanting to help in any way I could.

When I heard an Italian, gentile journalist wrote a compendium memorializing Israel's victims of terror, my first thought was, how could I not read this book?
Yes, the book's organization is poor. Yes, the translation from Italian to English has "rough around the edges" prose. Yes, I was yearning for more personal interviews and less information gleaned from newspapers, which I had already read.
Despite that, Meotti, a true friend of Israel, shines light on a subject that is so taboo in the mainstream media, it is purposefully omitted whenever possible. His thesis: the Jewish people are experiencing a modern-day Holocaust, a systematic effort by Palestinian terrorists to extinguish Israelis and the civilization they created.
This important testament is a shout to the world that the victims will never be forgotten. As Meotti gives the victims a human face, he proves that terrorism does not happen in the abstract but is an unfortunate reality haunting Israel today.

A heartbreaking work told with love and care, this book could easily have meandered into polemic; instead, we are faced with the harsh truths of daily Israeli life. Meotti introduces the reader to a terrifying reality, one which becomes all the more agonizing when we realize that it comes so close behind the great horrors of the twentieth century. Putting names to numbers--the numbers of faceless statistics--while carefully invoking the specter of numbers tattooed to arms and chest in concentration and extermination camps, Meotti gives a real sense of the human horror of terrorism against the modern Israeli state.
Horrifying to read, yet altogether necessary for it.

Imprescindibile la sua lettura per conoscere la voce, le ragioni di una componente importante, in quello che si definisce il conflitto ebreo-israelo-palestinese.
Imprescindibile la sua lettura per chi vuole sapere, capire, conoscere, e avere così maggiori informazioni per forgiarsi un'opinione.
E da ultimo ma non meno importante é uno strumento per conoscere meglio la storia dei coloni in Israele.

This invaluable, informative and harrowing digest tells the story little told before, about the victims of the terror war against Israel and her people.
It shows you what a prejudiced media will not dare to let you see, because their agenda is to prepare the world for genocide of the Jews of Israel, through a monstrous propaganda machine, never seen since Goebbels and Der Sterner paved the way for the Holocaust.
The book is dedicated to the victims of Arab terror , and contains a harrowing and heart wrenching portrait of the horrific terror faced by the people of Israel, since Yasser Arafat launched a war of genocide against the Israeli people In this he has been fully backed , in his evil plans , by the international media, world academia,the international left, the United Nations and other powerful global interests.
As Roger Scruton tells us in his forward to this work, the 'blame Israel' approach has become the standard line of the UN, EU and world community. But the truth is that "Israel is not the cause but the target of the current belligerence, and there can be no solution to the Middle East that does not place the blame on those who live by hatred, and who have nothing to offer save destruction".
The author of this work threads together the memory of the Nazi Holocaust of 1941-1945, in which 6 million Jews in Europe were annihilated, and reminds us that the current war to cleanse the land of Israel of it's Jewish presence is part of the continuation of the same old evil.
this is because once again Jews are being murdered simply for being Jews, this time for being Jews living in their ancient homeland.
As the Nazis dehumanized the Jews before the Holocaust was launched so the Arab and Leftist media and educational networks demonize the Jews of Israel in the same way.
Israel right from the start accepted the United Nations partition plan for Palestine but the Arabs violently refused it. Israel magnanimously offered the land through Ehud Barak's offer at Camp David in 2000 and Ariel Sharon's unilateral withdrawal from Gaza in 2005 and each time recieved a violent response. Making it quite clear that the issue is not about land but about the very existence of Israel, the very existence of the Jewish people. Meotti points out that The silence of Chelmno and the silence after suicide bombings, the zyklon B of the Nazis and the suicide belts on Hamas have this in common: the total destruction of the victim".
In March 2008 Arab terrorists murdered eight young Jewish seminary students at study of the Torah.
Shortly after this a survey by the Palestinian Center for Policy and Media Research revealed that 84% of Palestinians supported the attack!
Itamar Marcus of Palestinian Media Watch points out that the leaders of the propaganda for Hamas and Palestinian Authority TV (with their televised sermons, cartoons, comic books and school books) have constructed a machine to incite mass murder similar to that of the Hutu journalists who spearheaded the genocide of Tutsis in Rwanda. "The Islamic refers to Jews as the sons of pigs and monkeys to be exterminated just as Hutu supremacists spoke of Tutsis as 'serpents' to be crushed.
Hamas and Hezbollah, two of the terorist organizations that work for the physical annihilation of Israel describe Jews as 'pigs', 'cancer'. 'garbage','germs' 'parasites' and 'microbes'.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, in continually vowing to '"wipe Israel off the map" for which he is building a vast nuclear arsenal without the world or the Obama administration lifting a finger to stop him, uses the expression 'dead rats'
Not only do the rabid anti-Zionists who boycott and demonize Israel display gross and racist anti-Semitism , but they also responsible to a large extent for terror against Israeli women and children.
This is because Moral denigration encourages physical elimination
It is entirely in keeping in the character of Islamists or rabidly leftist anti-Zionists that they should carry a rabid hatred of Israel to the point of defending the killers of Israeli children.
There is certainly.
The mainstream and left-wing world media are also extremely culpable for fomenting mass killing of Jewish men, women and children in Israel.
As Claude Lanzmann director of the monumental film Shoah wrote "When 'settlers'
were killed it was intolerable to read in the newspapers stuck in a corner of the page 'settler women killed' or worse 'settler child strangled' as if the twofold stigma of Jew and settler made the murder understandable, justified it and dismissed it from our attention".
This book carries the stories of the victims.
Thousands of Israeli Jewish men, women and children have died from bombs, bullets or knife attacks, and thousands of others have been maimed, blinded, orphaned, widowed and terrorized.
