“Pro-Palestinian” Activists Smash Holocaust Exhibition in Tunisia

Remind me again how people who seek the destruction of Israel are only “anti-Zionist” not anti-Semitic.

From MEMRI, this incident happened in Tunisia on December 15, 2017, Protesters Smash Holocaust Exhibition at National Library of Tunisia: Holocaust Was a Myth and a Lie

Tunisians protested at the opening of a Holocaust exhibition at the National Library in Tunis, tearing down posters and chanting slogans such as “Free Palestine, out with the Zionists.” Tunisian University Professor Habib Kazdaghli, the exhibition’s organizer, said that the purpose of the exhibition was to “make our children love history” and that it had been organized months before U.S. President Trump’s Jerusalem declaration. Hamida Bessaad, a National Library researcher, said with indignation that the organizer “wants our little children to get to know the history of the Jews and learn about their Holocaust,” but that “the children of Palestine have been going through a Holocaust since 1948.” Civil society activist Kawthar Chebbi called the Holocaust a “decades-old myth” and a lie, and political activist Omar Al-Majri said that the Holocaust had been “perpetrated by the Zionist movement in collaboration with the Nazis.” This report appeared on Meem Magazine Online, an Arab Women’s Magazine, on December 15.

Don’t think this is limited to Tunisia. The false claim that Zionists collaborated with the Nazis is a standard talking point of leading anti-Israel activists.
