I am proud to join more than 250 Jewish holocaust survivors and descendants of survivors in condemning the massacre of Palestinians in Gaza and the ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people.
Our statement of solidarity (published below) calls for "An immediate end to the siege against Gaza" and a"full economic, cultural and academic boycott of Israel".
We believe that "never again", the often-repeated lesson of Hitler's holocaust, "must mean never again for anyone!" -- especially the Palestinians.
We also protest the full-page advertisement published in the New York Times and elsewhere by Zionist Elie Wiesel. It holds Palestinians responsible for the deaths of the hundreds of Palestinian children in Gaza killed by Israeli bombs.
We say: 鈥淣othing can justify bombing UN shelters, homes, hospitals and universities.鈥
Wiesel, a Nobel laureate and holocaust survivor, accuses the Palestinian resistance group Hamas for having supposedly because Hamas has launched rockets against Israel.
In reality, it is Israel that has deliberately bombarded densely packed civilian residential areas, , director of the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights.
Among Israeli targets was a UN school in Rafah being used as a shelter an attack that even the US State Department termed 鈥渁ppalling鈥 and 鈥渄isgraceful鈥.
鈥楪aza Doctrine鈥
Sourani calls Israel's actions . It is a "policy of collective punishment" in which "disproportionate force is used to cause terror among the civilian population to exert political pressure" on their government.
To bomb densely packed Gaza homes is a war crime, he says.
Such collective punishment was the Nazis' standard response to acts of resistance to their genocidal rule during World War II. When Czech resisters assassinated Reinhard Heydrich, a principal architect of the Jewish holocaust, the Nazis slaughtered more than 1300 civilians in reprisal.
The Nazis took such actions in France, where I then lived as a child. In June 1944, the village of Oradour, about 100 miles from where I was hidden at the time, was attacked by a German Waffen-SS detachment, based on false reports that a German commander was held prisoner there.
In a matter of hours, 600 civilians were killed.
Jewish fighters were a leading force in the armed resistance in France, as they were in other countries across Europe. And even where Jews were isolated in ghettos and concentration camps, they still found ways to fight back.
In the celebrated 1943 Warsaw ghetto uprising, a mere 750 fighters, armed with primitive weapons smuggled along with food through hand-dug tunnels, held out for a month before heavily armed Nazis extinguished their resistance. The Nazis levelled the ghetto.
There were Nazi reprisals across Europe. They killed 205 children at Oradour -- but no one has ever accused the heroic resisters of being a "death cult of child sacrifice".
Solidarity
At the time of these events, I was marked for death by the Nazis. My story is an example of building solidarity in the face of overwhelming odds.
In 1942, the French police began rounding up Jewish residents by the tens of thousands -- men, women and children -- handing them over to the Nazis to be killed at Auschwitz, the death camp in Poland. Among the victims was my mother, who died in Auschwitz in 1943.
The Nazis銉 goal was to round up, deport, and kill all the Jews in France 銉 as was being done throughout Europe. But amid this terrible slaughter, a wave of revulsion grew in France against the attack on the Jews.
Through the efforts of both group and individual initiatives, thousands of Jews were hidden. Altogether, three-quarters of French Jews escaped the Holocaust.
The first big raid of July 1942 caught Jewish groups in France by surprise. It was only then that the Jewish population realised their children had to be hidden.
They embraced the slogan, 鈥淪ave the children by dispersing them鈥. Searches were initiated for safe havens, false papers were made, and transport arranged in an atmosphere of urgency and despair.
More than 10,000 Jewish children were taken from their families and hidden. I was among them.
In 1943, when I was two, a resistance group took charge of my care and placed me with a peasant family in Auvergne, a farming region in south-central France.
Recently, I went back to Auvergne to learn how I had been saved. I spoke to people in Auvergne who remembered those years.
The Jewish children were placed discreetly, away from the towns and sometimes in remote hamlets. Yet they lived in the open, going to school and to church.
The villagers protected them, thus putting their own lives and that of their families at risk. Despite the dangers, peasants took the children into their tightly knit communities.
Collective action
The children were saved, in most cases, not just by the actions of individual heroes, but of entire communities, who hid them not in cellars but in plain view.
We were saved by a resistance that embraced guerrilla combatants and those who set up civilian networks to defy anti-Jewish decrees. And also, in a different way, by those who looked the other way, who did not ask questions, and who -- even if hostile to the presence of Jews -- did not betray them.
The resistance embraced French and immigrants; Christians, Jews, and Muslims; and refugees from Spain, Italy, and German-occupied territories. This was a solidarity born of the common social experience of farmers and working people.
The situation in Gaza is different to that faced by Europe鈥檚 Jews under Hitler. The Israeli government has converted the territory into the world鈥檚 largest concentration camp, sealed off and subjected to periodic and murderous bombardment.
For the people of Gaza, there is no place to shelter their children; no friendly countryside that could provide refuge.
No wonder that for Gaza, in the , "ceasefire is not enough. We demand justice. We demand to be treated like human beings. We demand an end to the closure of the Gaza Strip."
And in the , London-basedwriter and journalist, our politicians "have to understand that there is no equivalence between the Palestinian resistance and the Israeli occupation. When a country is occupied, resistance emerges.
"If you want no rockets being fired, no tunnels being dug, get out of Gaza."
Boycott, divestment and sanctions
But the people of Gaza do not stand alone. To , a student organiser of a Jewish Bloc against Zionism addressing 150,000 people at London's August 9 march for Gaza: "people from all backgrounds, from all walks of life, all over the world, come together and say in our thousands, 'We are all Palestinians'."
Today, the peoples of the world are denouncing Israeli apartheid and slaughter. They express this in repeated gigantic demonstrations with signs and banners calling out: end to the killing in Gaza, lift the siege of Gaza, freedom for Palestine.
Several governments -- Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Cuba, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Peru, and Venezuela -- have taken actions against the Israeli assault, including boycott and sanctions.
Today, human dignity is challenged by Israel鈥檚 cruelty towards the Palestinians. Palestinians call for a world movement of solidarity.
We must speak out for their right to defend their lives and their homelands. We support their call to create economic pressure on Israel with a campaign of boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS).
The demands of the BDS campaign are: For the right of Palestinians to return to their homeland; equal rights for Palestinians in Israel; and an end to the Israeli occupation. Today the boycott campaign is winning greater support on several continents.
Let us redouble our efforts against Israeli apartheid.

Jewish survivors and descendants of survivors of Nazi genocide unequivocally condemn the massacre of Palestinians in Gaza
Initiated by
As Jewish survivors and descendants of survivors of the Nazi genocide we unequivocally condemn the massacre of Palestinians in Gaza and the ongoing occupation and colonization of historic Palestine. We further condemn the United States for providing Israel with the funding to carry out the attack, and Western states more generally for using their diplomatic muscle to protect Israel from condemnation. Genocide begins with the silence of the world.
We are alarmed by the extreme, racist dehumanization of Palestinians in Israeli society, which has reached a fever-pitch. In Israel, politicians and pundits in The Times of Israel and The Jerusalem Post have called openly for genocide of Palestinians and right-wing Israelis are adopting Neo-Nazi insignia.
Furthermore, we are disgusted and outraged by Elie Wiesel鈥檚 abuse of our history in these pages to promote blatant falsehoods used to justify the unjustifiable: Israel鈥檚 wholesale effort to destroy Gaza and the murder of nearly 2,000 Palestinians, including many hundreds of children. Nothing can justify bombing UN shelters, homes, hospitals and universities. Nothing can justify depriving people of electricity and water.
We must raise our collective voices and use our collective power to bring about an end to all forms of racism, including the ongoing genocide of Palestinian people. We call for an immediate end to the siege against and blockade of Gaza. We call for the full economic, cultural and academic boycott of Israel. 鈥淣ever again鈥 must mean NEVER AGAIN FOR ANYONE!
