The Holocaust in Gaza Must Result in Israel’s DeNazification

On Holocaust Memorial Day [HMD], we will be holding the fourth anti-Zionist memorial meeting commemorating the victims of the Nazi holocaust. The victims include, not just Jews but Roma and Sinti, the Disabled, Gays, Russian prisoners-of-war as well as millions of civilians – in particular Russians and Poles.

The official HMD organisation only recognises Jews as victims of the Holocaust. All other categories are relegated to the status of victims of Nazi persecution.

Under the heading genocide today the HMD site mentions a number of genocides such as when UN human rights investigators accused ISIS of committing genocide against the Yazidis. It cites how years of persecution and cultural repression of Uyghur Muslims in China ‘all bear the hallmarks of genocide’.

The HMD also cites how, in Myanmar,

In January 2020 the International Court of Justice (ICJ) ordered Myanmar to take steps to prevent genocide, in a landmark case filed by The Gambia.

There is only one genocide that the HMD does not recognise. This despite the fact that the ICJ, in its order of 26 January 2026, in the case brought by South Africa found that Israel was plausibly committing genocide in Gaza.

The UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry went even further. It found, in a report of September 2025 that Israel was committing genocide against the Palestinians.

So although the HMD is happy to quote the ICJ in respect of the Rohinga and UN Human Rights investigators in the case of the Yazidis, it refuses to acknowledge that both the ICJ and the UN have recognised that Israel is committing genocide.

Palestinian victims of genocide are excluded from the HMD commemorations because the purpose of these events is not to combat racism and imperialism but to reinforce Israel’s claim to inherit the memory of the Jewish victims of the holocaust.

The HMD events do not commemorate any genocide that preceded the Nazi genocide. The slave trade, the Herero-Nama and Armenian genocides, which were the precursor of the Nazi holocaust, go unmentioned.

The hypocrisy of the HMD Trust is no surprise. HMD was set up by Tony Blair, who together with George Bush, was responsible for murdering one million Iraqis in an illegal war.

The Holocaust has become integral to the imperialist narrative and a weapon used to support the Israeli state in its ethnic cleansing and genocide of the Palestinians. The reason for this is that Israel is the projection of western power in the oil rich Middle East. According to Alexander Haig, Ronald Reagan’s Secretary of State

Israel constitutes the largest US aircraft carrier that cannot be sunk, does not carry even one US soldier, and is located in a most critical region for US national security.

An accounting by the western imperialist states of their record during the Nazi holocaust is also conspicuous by its absence. Nowhere is any mention made of the United States and UK refusal to admit to their territories all but a handful of Jewish refugees. Ctd....
