Schools in German capital ordered to distribute leaflets describing 1948 Nakba Day as ‘myth’

Palestinians flee the village of Qumiya during the Nakba in 1948
Press TV – February 24, 2024
Schools in the German capital Berlin have been ordered to distribute leaflets describing the Nakba Day as a “myth”, 76 years after Zionist paramilitaries forcibly removed two-thirds of the Palestinian population from their ancestral homes.
Germany’s leading Social Democratic Party (SPD) – German Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s party – and the opposition Christian Democratic Party (CDU) have asked high schools in Berlin’s borough of Neukolln to distribute brochures titled “The Myth of Israel #1948”, the London-based Middle East Eye website said in a report on Friday.
The report cited a motion that was passed during a public meeting of the borough’s council on Wednesday stating that “the district office is asked to advocate the use of the brochure ‘Myths#Israel1948’ in Neukolln’s secondary schools to confront existing anti-Semitic narratives within the educational framework of the school.”
“The expanded definition of anti-Semitism of the IHRA (International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance) and the German government should also be communicated,” the motion further read.
More than 750,000 Palestinians were forcibly removed from their ancestral homes in Palestine and 500 villages and towns were destroyed by Zionist militias before the Israeli regime declared its illegal establishment. Palestinians are still enduring the repercussions of this catastrophe to this day. The systematic ethnic cleansing occurred between 1947 and 1949.
The incident is known among Palestinians as the Day of Nakba, or the Day of Catastrophe, and it is commemorated every year on May 15.
The leaflet distributed among high school students in Berlin’s Neukolln borough flatly rejected, among others, this catastrophe as a “myth” despite the fact that ample credible evidence in favor of the occurrence of the incident are impossible to ignore.
Based on such overwhelming evidence, the United Nations, for the first time in its history, commemorated the 75th anniversary of Nakba Day back on May 15 last year.
The UN Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People (CEIRPP), at the time, organized a high-level special meeting.
It was presided over by the chairman of the committee, Ambassador Cheikh Niang of Senegal, and included a keynote address by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas. Senior UN officials and representatives of regional groups and civil societies also made statements to commemorate Nakba.
The leaflet stresses that criticism of illegal Israeli settlements is anti-Semitic.
According to the report, while Germany stands out with its unwavering political and military support for Israel, the German left is split over its stance on Palestine.

So the Nakba with indisputable mountains of evidence is a “Myth” whilst the Holocaust with zero, that’s right ZERO evidence, is somehow a “fact”.
Germany deserves to be a failed state.

For heaven’s sake. There is overwhelming evidence of both the Holocaust and the Nakba.
Simplistic explanations of the complexity of human behavior and belief are neither truthful nor useful. Conspiratorial thinking and the denial of trivially confirmed historical facts undermine the credibility of your perspective.
Do some serious academic study of research methods in history before leaping to conclusions aligned with particular political points of view. Hint: primary sources are much more reliable than echo chambers on the internet.

Please supply ANY evidence other than ‘victim’ statements that any form of ‘Holocaust’ was carried out.
Three of the best known works on the Second World War are General Eisenhower’s Crusade in Europe (New York: Doubleday [Country Life Press], 1948), Winston Churchill’s The Second World War (London: Cassell, 6 vols., 1948-1954), and the Mémoires de guerre of General de Gaulle (Paris: Plon, 3 vols., 1954-1959). In these three works not the least mention of Nazi gas chambers is to be found.
Eisenhower’s Crusade in Europe is a book of 559 pages; the six volumes of Churchill’s Second World War total 4,448 pages; and de Gaulle’s three-volume Mémoires de guerre is 2,054 pages. In this mass of writing, which altogether totals 7,061 pages (not including the introductory parts), published from 1948 to 1959, one will find no mention either of Nazi “gas chambers,” a “genocide” of the Jews, or of “six million” Jewish victims of the war.
The Red Cross had unrestricted access each month to every German concentration camp including Auschwitz. They had inside men who reported to them in detail the activities at the camps.
In a Nov. 22, 1944 letter to U.S. State Department officials, the Red Cross said: “We had not been able to discover any trace of installations for exterminating civilian prisoners. This corroborates a report which we had already received from other sources …”
The Germans captured 150,000 British soldiers. 150 of those men were engineers who worked at Auschwitz-Birkenau to maintain the manufacturing plants that processed Silesian coal to make gasoline for the German Army. The Germans were using a coal gasification formula developed in 1915 in Russia. These 150 men obviously had daily access throughout the camps but to date neither a Nuremberg prosecutor nor a Holohoax researcher has cited their testimony. I wonder why.
Evidence of Nazis making soap and lampshades from Jews used to convict Germans at Nuremberg has been withdrawn from the Holohoax museums at Auschwitz and Jerusalem.
Many critics have examined Jewish population figures from before and after the war. The World Almanac says there were 8,939,608 Jews in Europe before the war and 9,372,666 after the Holohoax. These figures do not reflect the millions of Jews who fled to America and to Israel after the war.
And the Atlanta Journal and Constitution stated in 1985 that about half of the Jewish “survivors” in the world have never received reparations money number of successful claims was 4,344,378, 80 percent, or 3.5 million, of the claims were from Jews. Not much evidence of a Jewish population loss.
The most infamous German camp, Auschwitz, is the rosetta stone of the holocaust story. The camp’s true purpose bares little resemblance to the picture painted in Hollywood movies and mainstream history books. It is an irrefutable fact that Auschwitz had facilities one would never expect to find in a bona fide “death factory,” such as a swimming pool, a soccer pitch, a theater, a library, a post office, a hospital, dental facilities, kitchens and so on. Inmates were encouraged to participate in orchestras, theater productions, soccer matches and other cultural and leisure activities.[vi]
“We also had an orchestra where some of the musicians played together,” said one former Jewish inmate. Another former inmate noted some of the cultural activities in Auschwitz: “We had a piano. Not just a piano, a grand piano was brought into Block One,” she said. “Once that new block was built, the downstairs room was assigned for theater. I had a big table where I could work and lay out all the paper. That was very peaceful and relaxing,” she added. “I went out to pick the leaves, which would be used to make tea for the whole camp.”[vii]
“At the beginning of those days there was a library where people could get books to read,” said a former Buchenwald inmate. “There were newspapers that we could get … and later on … [the German authorities] made a movie theater in the camp.” “Once I came to the main camp we were allowed twice a month to write home,” he said. Other former inmates recounted memories of soccer matches in various German camps, including Auschwitz, Theresienstadt and Gross-Rosen. “On the weekends we got a group of us together and made a soccer team, we played soccer,” said one former inmate. Another explained, “In 1944 we had soccer games. We organized very well. Each nationality organized a … team. [German SS officers] even played soccer with us.”
One of his queries related to the alleged “gas chamber” room shown to tourists in Auschwitz’s main camp. For decades Auschwitz guides had been telling naïve tourists that the room was a “homicidal gas chamber” that was in “original state.” Cole later confirmed in an interview with Auschwitz’s senior curator, Dr. Franciszek Piper, that the room was not in original state, but was a reconstruction built several years after the war by the Polish communist authorities.
Only 173000 Jews were ever in Auschwitz during all of its years of operation. (1935-45)
58,240 died of typhus.
2064 Jews died of natural causes other than Typhus. 117 Jews were executed as punishment for actual crimes.
161,164 Jews (including transfers in) were transferred out to other camps, still alive.
11,836 Jews, still alive, were in the camp when it was liberated.

Debbie, it appears that blanket dismissal of “conspiratorial thinking” just won’t cut it.
Perhaps it’s time to admit that it is you that has been disseminating conspiracy theories. Completely unfounded ones at that.

And on “Conspiracy Theories” rather than the Holocaust :
“In short, the new study by Wood and Douglas suggests that the negative stereotype of the conspiracy theorist – a hostile fanatic wedded to the truth of his own fringe theory – accurately describes the people who defend the official account of 9/11, not those who dispute it.
Recent studies by psychologists and social scientists in the US and UK suggest that contrary to mainstream media stereotypes, those labeled “conspiracy theorists” appear to be saner than those who accept the official versions of contested events.”
“The CIA’s campaign to popularize the term ‘conspiracy theory’ and make conspiracy belief a target of ridicule and hostility must be credited, unfortunately, with being one of the most successful propaganda initiatives of all time.”
In other words, people who use the terms “conspiracy theory” and “conspiracy theorist” as an insult are doing so as the result of a well-documented, undisputed, historically-real conspiracy by the CIA to cover up the JFK assassination. That campaign, by the way, was completely illegal, and the CIA officers involved were criminals
No wonder the anti-conspiracy people are sounding more and more like a bunch of hostile, paranoid cranks.

“The most dangerous man, to any government, is the man who is able to think things out for himself, without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos.” — H. L. Mencken, 1919
Conspiracy : “the activity of secretly planning with other people to do something bad or illegal:” But not all laws are ethical, moral or good and just who gets to decide what is “bad”.
“A concerning new study shows the lengths people go to justify their selfish behaviour. Researchers working with the American Psychological Association found that 40 percent deliberately choose ignorance when presented with the opportunity to learn how their actions impact others.”

The ongoing #GazaHolocaust is making more and more people wonder: Since the Zionists have been caught pathologically lying about pretty much everything, why should we uncritically accept their founding myth? Doesn’t the fact that the guardians of the official Holocaust narrative have to terrorize and imprison historians they disagree with suggest that they can’t win the argument using logic and evidence?
Germar Rudolf’s new Holocaust Encyclopedia (free online at http://www.NukeBook.org) offers “an uncensored and unconstrained look at the pertinent evidence that upholds the orthodox Holocaust narrative.” Unlike all mainstream defenses of orthodoxy that I’m aware of, The Holocaust Encyclopedia is a very easy-to-use reference guide to the relevant evidence and sources
Has the Holocaust Encyclopedia surpassed Thomas Dalton’s Debating the Holocaust and Nick Kollerstrom’s Breaking the Spell as the best up-to-date introduction to nuts-and-bolts of the revisionist side of the Holocaust argument? Check it out and see.
