🇵🇱🇺🇦 TUSK — BRING THE WESTERPLATTE SPIRIT TO UKRAINE. 1 September 1939 is not only a date of remembrance. It is a warning.

Today Ukraine is fighting the war https://t.co/pjvDb5S6pd #Ukraine #Poland #HistoryMatters #PL #UA

There is a city that stops for one minute every year. Not out of routine, but out of remembrance. On the 82nd anniversary of the Warsaw Uprising, take a moment to watch this powerful short film and remember the courage, sacrifice and resilience of those who fought for freedom. #WarsawUprising #Remembrance #Courage #PL
Skriver i Aftonbladet: "Jag skrev om hur Förintelsen trivialiserats och relativiserats i pro-palestinska demonstrationer på svenska gator och torg. Svaret från Hawazen Saghir – som varken verkar ha någon egen koppling till Förintelsen eller någon sakkunskap i ämnet – blir att göra exakt det som artikeln kritiserar: att jämföra Förintelsen med Gazakriget. International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) har tagit fram en arbetsdefinition av antisemitism som Sverige antog 2020. Där anges relativisering och trivialisering av Förintelsen som exempel på antisemitism – liksom jämförelser mellan Israel och Nazityskland. Sedan 2024 är förnekande och trivialisering av Förintelsen dessutom kriminaliserat som hets mot folkgrupp. Kritik av Israels krigföring är inte antisemitism. Det är bruket av Förintelsens symboler – lägeruniformer, Davidsstjärnor, Auschwitz-porten – som passerar anständighetens och lagens gräns. Men Saghir nöjer sig inte med att utnyttja Förintelsen för att argumentera för sin politiska ståndpunkt. Han tar sig också rätten att tala i Förintelsens offers namn och förklara vad som utgör ett svek mot deras minne. Samtidigt undviker han att bemöta den kritik som min artikel handlade om: att pro-palestinska demonstranter, klädda i Region Stockholms sjukvårdskläder, bar en skylt där ordet ”Gaza” medvetet utformats för att associera till den ökända skylten ”Arbeit Macht Frei” vid Auschwitz, medan en man i Gestapoliknande skinnrock bar en armbindel med Davidsstjärnan. Det är anmärkningsvärt. Symbolik har ett syfte och används för att förmedla ett budskap." Läs mer👇🏻https://t.co/VBtPqISB1N #Förintelsen #antisemitism #IsraelGazakonflikten

Shocked and appalled by the violent assault on writer Vladimir Arsenijević, just as he prepared for commemoration of Srebrenica genocide victims.

Both Ukraine and Poland have so-called Institutes of National Remembrance/Memory, government bodies that focus on proving that the respective country was most heroic, most victimized, most valiant and otherwise a flawless example to the human race through modern history.

Apropos mit foredrag forleden, hvor jeg påpegede at Danmark er medlem af International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA), som har gjort det klart, at anti-Zionisme er antisemitisme; jeg har netop taget dette billede af graffiti på Nørrebro station, hvor det med al sandsynlighed har hængt længe. Hvor længe ville det få lov at hænge hvis der stod “destroy Islam”? Mit gæt er det ville være fjernet inden dagen var omme. #antisemitisme #ytringsfrihed #graffiti
