Misremembering the Holocaust

For John, BLUF:  Being Anti-Israel is becoming "fashionable," leading to Anti-Semitism, which is bad.  Nothing to see here; just move along.

Linda Sarsour Outs Herself as an Anti-Semite on Holocaust Remembrance Day

Sunday was UN (and EU) Holocaust Remembrance Day.  Here in the US it is in April or May, following the Jewish Calendar.  In addition to six million Jews killed by the Nazi regime, a like number of Slavs, Poles, Serbs, Romani people, mentally and physically disabled Germans, and people who were "different," such as Jehovah's Witnesses, asocial political dissidents and homosexual men, all to the lasting disgrace of the German People.

From PJ Media, by Mr Tyler O'Neil, 29 January 2019.

Here is the lede:

On Sunday, Women's March leader Linda Sarsour effectively outed herself as an anti-Semite.  Ironically, her statement for Holocaust Remembrance Day in 2019 did the very thing she denounced in 2017 as the "definition of anti-Semitism" — she did not mention the Jews.

But, back in 2017 it was President Trump who failed to mention the Jews.  Which s different, because….  That said, I am not sure I would have noticed, the Jews and the Holocaust being so tightly united in my mind.
