A German foundation has said it will no longer be awarding a prize for political thinking to a leading Russian-American journalist after criticizing as “unacceptable” a recent essay by the writer in which they made a comparison between Gaza and a Jewish ghetto in Nazi-occupied Europe.
That’s the opposite of what they’re doing. Germanys being way too careful to not offend Israel right now, in my opinion. They’re upset that someone is saying Israel is approaching nazi levels, not that what’s happening now is worse than the holocaust nor are they minimizing the holocaust.
