As Biden administration and U.S. college and university administrators increasingly accuse peaceful pro-Palestinian protesters on school campuses of antisemitism, we speak with Brown University professor of Holocaust and genocide studies Omer Bartov, who visited the student Gaza solidarity encampment at UPenn alongside fellow Israeli historian Raz Segal. "There was absolutely no sign of any violence, of any antisemitism at all," says Bartov, who warns antisemitism is being used to silence speech about Israel. "There's politics, and there's prejudice. And if we don't make a distinction between the two, then what we are actually doing is enforcing a kind of silence over the policies that have been conducted by the Israeli government for a long time that ultimately culminated now in the utter destruction of Gaza."

“The biggest insult to the memory of the Holocaust is not denying it but using it as an excuse to commit genocide against the Palestinian people.” - Norman Finkelstein
who would have thought ISRAEL who RECEIVED a Genocide would next PERPETRATE IT - it's OBSCENE
He is the one plundering the Holocaust for political purposes: to dehumanise Israelis and white-wash genocidal racists like Hamas.
Nice quote from the biggest antisemite in this Century. Nice job. You condone a bigot.
❤
Yup so simple
Respect to these Jewish scholars who stand up for humanity, defend Palestinian rights, and oppose genocide.
Some of these scholars are "liberal Zionists" who are against the right of return of Palestinians.
Absolutely!
If only they spoke of God’s laws

Raz Segal has called it a genocide. Bartov when asked maybe 4 months ago wouldn't say it was, but wouldn't say it wasn't. I think he respects Segal's opinion and is probably closer to his opinion by now.
@@QUINTUSMAXIMUS America was a pro life culture until the 60s it took on the culture of death ( people are fooled thinking things are so forward thinking & benevolent & they’re making a difference)
In the end, it’s not our opinion but God’s. He has told us how the world works. About life & death.
Christianity works to redeem man! People have become so desensitized by movies including sex & violence. Help us reclaim the value of human life. God relies on our obedience. Our roots- our motto- Pro America - America 1st

No one should have to face a genocide
When you purposefully leave a statement like that, you're leaving this comment section open to certain folks saying that what's happening in Gaza isn't genocide.
So one must ask, was that your intention? 🤔
Let's hope not.
But you're correct, *No one should have to face genocide.*
@@PauloAdriano-zo2ngso true!!!!
Especially innocents 😇
If you believe that then these students should stop calling for Death to America and Death to Israel
what about people who chew with their mouths open
The irony of these campuses complaining about illegal encampments being set up while supporting a colony who does exactly that in Palestine.
HA! True!
True true true!
Yes.
That's exactly what I have been saying for a while now! Noticed how all those politicians complaining about the illegal invasion from across the border, while sponsoring the same actions in another part of the world!
If these encampments were peacefully protesting climate change you wouldn’t hear a peep from anyone.
I guess they are giving America a small taste of what Israel is doing to Palestine!
We need to call for Blinken to step down
Because he is a Jew! Blinken, is a Jew.
ok. We are calling for Blinken to step down.
And tried for war crimes and crimes against humanity for aiding and abetting genocide.
Why Blinken is just our relayer. The negotiations were moved from Qatar to Egypt last I heard.
Blinken is a tool of a foreign government, not the US. This is clear for all to see. His actions speak louder than his vacuous words.
Stop genocide. Save the humanity 😢 Historical protest by students ❤

Very well said. Although, some have already chosen and refused to see anything that's taking place

Many thanks to Omer Bartov for distinguishing between anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism. As a non-Jewish person, I felt guilty about speaking up against Israeli right wing Zionist policies. I'm relieved that these two terms are now being separated and that being an anti-Zionist is not at all the same as being anti-Semitic.
Zionists know that. but they are weaponizing it to silence students and others who are outraged to witness the massacres.
Mind Begs the Question:
- If a Semitic State
- Engage in Genocide/Apartheid
- To speak,act against it
- Is Anti Semitic or Pro Freedom?
Zionism was founded by Theodor Herzl in 1897 while Judaism was founded around or before 1800. B.C.
That's when I learned that they arent the same.
They always have been
its called brainwashing, in history, movies Evil creeps up slowly but surely
Thank you! Being against the genocidal actions of the government and military of Israel is not antisemitism.
*Maybe that loud mouth german was right about "them"..*
Calling the actions of the government and military of Israel "genocidal actions" is antisemitism.
There is no genocide in Gaza. It's a war. There is genocide in Sudan and ethnic cleansing in Pakistan, but you don't care about that, do you?
They pro hamas
@@kwokeva being against Israeli genocide does not equate to support terrorism
In 2008, Professor Norman Finkelstein, who comes from a family deeply impacted by the Holocaust, was deeply outraged by what he saw as feigned sorrow or "crocodile tears" from a student at Case Western University in Cleveland, Ohio.
Finkelstein's father was an Auschwitz survivor, while his mother survived the Warsaw Ghetto and Majdanek concentration camp. Having experienced significant loss within his family during the Nazi Holocaust, he was infuriated when confronted by a Jewish student questioning his pro-Palestinian stance.
He said: "I don't respect the crocodile tears - if you had any heart in you, you would be crying for the Palestinians.
That was an epic response by Dr. Finkelstein to those brainwashed indoctrinated young pro - Israeli Jews.
They cornered the market of sympathy.

More to the point, the term semitic is obsolete. Neither Judaism nor Islam are ethnic entities, they are religions.

If you live on stolen land, you are a Zionist. Tel Aviv is land stolen from the Palestinians, just like Gaza.
I wonder what percentage of Jewish is like you.
Do you know the history of The Muslim Brotherhood who is funding Hamas? They have not changed! They were NAZIs and Hitler's close friends and allies and they are Obama's close friends and allies.
Thank you, we need more Jewish people like you. I find myself hating Jewish people because of what the government of Israel is doing. Honestly if what is happening in Gaza was being done to Jews or any other race my hatred of the people doing it would be exactly the same. Netanyahu is just making worse for his own people by carrying out this genocide.
Wake up folks, we have NEVER been a democracy, not at home and not abroad.
That’s right we are a Republic
What does that mean are you not supposed to be the greatest democracy in the world, the light on the bill. Democracy is thrown around by politicians like confetti at a wedding. So exactly why do ppl have a. OTE, why does it say by the ppl for the ppl. Is that not what a democracy is supposed to be. I don’t think you have a functioning democracy, because voting is suppressed, made as core t and difficult as possible. I think is pretty awful. Yet your politicians still seem to claim it’s a very very democratic country. I don’t understand what it is because it certainly is not a fair and just country. So if that is what a republicans is then it sucks.
What I find most shocking today is that the Gaza genocide continues as does suppression of dissent here.
I find the fact that people can't pick up a dictionary and learn what the term Genocide means shocking. It proves how many idiots believe they are smart by parroting what they are told and don't think for themselves.
Weaponizing anti-Semitism for political gain, makes it harder to prosecute actual anti-Semitism. It’s also my understanding that Palestinians are Semite peoples, so…
Thank you, Prof. Bartov, for keeping it real, for speaking up for legitimate student and faculty concerns. And thanks for drawing attention to the abominable treatment of Hebrew University Professor, Nadera Shalhoub-Kevorkian, and her (sexual and human rights) humiliation in an over-night jail.
With "liberal Zionists" like Bartov, they only keep it real when comparing notes in private.
I have been using the words massacre and genocide to protest about what is happening in Gaza.
With the latest terrible, terrible news, I think we need to have some stronger words!
What is happening in Gaza just seems to be getting worse and worse!
I'm lost for words!
Protesting students, THANK YOU and may God Bless You all ! 👍♥️♥️♥️
Another matter is who gets to decide which groups is labeled terrorist! So many good Americans decry Hezbollah, Hamas and the Houthis without any understanding of the outrageous oppressive tactics used by Israel against the Palestinians!
Such outrageous tactics... protecting themselves from Palestinian terrorism 🙄
Smart man speaking our politicians need to listen.
The harsh responses from universities may well be influenced by the donors many of whom have to be investigated in respect to their funding of Israel itself. Over 200 CEO's visited Tel Aviv when the Israelis began to bomb GAZA. There are complicities here.
They are more likely influenced by the fact congress keeps calling them in to threaten university funding due to allowing student behaviors which are hostile to Jewish students (like blocking their free passage to class).
The knowledge of dual citizenship should be available.
@@ruthgallagher9584 Brings up the question of abuse of dual citizenship. Many of us are eligible for dual citizenship somewhere, that's currently the logic for current citizenship claims.

Imagine putting a wikipedia ‘context link’ to the holocaust over someone like omer bartov - he probably wrote half the books that article is based on.
It’s automated based on keyword
Unfortunately the wikipedia description of the holocaust seems to be inaccurate to me: Although im not an expert, i belive the holocaust was not only against the jews, but more like against Hitler's description of the jews. So if someone dont consider themself a jew, or is not considered to be a jew according to the rules of judaism, they might still be considered to be a jew by Hitler, and got murdered. So im not sure the wiki excerpt is very accurate in this form, also i have serious doubt about the integrity of this description which leave out the other murdered innocents who were not jews at all.
So all this revolves around who we consider to be a jew. Also if we consider everyone to be a jew who were systematically murdered by the nazis, then we kinda accept and utilize Hitler's description. Im not sure if that is a good idea, and im personally against it. I wouldnt want to give Hitler the authority to decide who is a jew.
Also correct me if im wrong.
I covered the antiwar movement on campuses in New Mexico just prior to the Kent State National Guard riot where 4 student were brutally shot down. I still have a photograph of a peaceful young female protester being dragged to safety by fellow students with bayonet wielding National Guard troops in hot pursuit. Day after day I would circulate around the campus interviewing student protestors without witnessing a single act of violence only to return home that evening to lurid reports on the television claiming that the striking students were violent and dangerous. Do not be misled, power elites and deep pocketed donators to Brown, Columbia, et. al. are pulling the behind the curtain strings to stamp out campus support for the people of Gaza. Take everything they say with a huge grain of salt!
I am of the same generation have drawn the same comparison.
Defining words from other cultures can be a complicated task. And it can take time, which US media particularly doesn’t care to bother with. I increasingly feel that major media around the world is irrelevant. Thank you Democracy Now for your thoughtful reporting and for giving time to inform.
Well said Mr Bartov!
God bless the Professor for distinguishing anti-Semitism & anti-zionism.
These students are world hero's, fantastic to see kids with a moral compass and bravery.
The Israeli Nazi's regime will fall.
The islamofascists, commies and Nazi's that have hijacked the campuses and the useful idiots that support this will fall.

I remeber when Norman Finkelstein was the lone voice talking about the weaponization of the Holocaust memory way back in the 90s.
Thank you for standing up for humanity and the oppressed.. Thank you..
I propose that Jewish scholars against weaponizing antisemitism to silence any criticism of Israel should address an open letter to congress and to the president to voice their opinion.

@haroldsmith7044 I think they're saying "Feeling threatened isn't the same as "being attacked." There are people saying they've been attacked for being Jewish. People being caught lying and even hurting themselves to pretend that pro-Palestinian protesters attacked them.
Jewish feelings do not trump Palestinian lives. No one’s feelings trump another person’s life.
One of the leading scholars on genocide and Holocaust, a Jew himself, joining the students give me hope! So thanks to fit humans like him!!
That's no proof. There is a long history of Jews turning against the Jewish people. Look for article titles with the phrase, "As a Jew."
Well spoken Omer Bartov.
Just because he's right on this one issue doesn't make his "liberal Zionism" any less pernicious.

Due process must be followed.
The right to freedom of assembly and association is enshrined in several international human rights instruments, including:
1. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), Article 20: "Everyone has the right to freedom of peaceful assembly and association."
2. The International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), Article 21: "The right of peaceful assembly shall be recognized. No restrictions may be placed on the exercise of this right other than those imposed in conformity with the law and which are necessary in a democratic society in the interests of national security or public safety, public order (ordre public), the protection of public health or morals or the protection of the rights and freedoms of others."
Besides, divesting from an Apartheid state in not unreasonable demand.
Instead of asking pro-Palestinians to condemn Hamas, do an experiment and ask them the following question: "If Israel could eliminate Hamas without harming women and children, would you support that?" You will be surprised by the answer.
Why would anyone support the annihilation of the freedom fighters? Did you support annihilation of South African freedom fighters? Did you wish death upon Nelson Mandela?
You’ll get an answer of “no fucking shit I do”

It's nice to see Omer Bartov. I used his research when i did some research as part of my MA on the Wehrmacht's attack on USSR in WW2.
I appreciated Bartovs rebuke of the idea that "only the SS did war crimes in German occupied Russia".
He's one of the world's best scholars
on German war crimes in WW2.
I deeply respect this man because he clearly has a love of truth and he appears to have compassion towards the Palestinians.
Stop insulting people who perished in holocaust .It is outrageous when you have members of your family who have been tortured and killed in those concentration camps. NEVER AGAIN TO ANY LIVING BEING.

For 7 millions Jews living in Israel, that don't have academic degree in Holocausts and American citizenship, Anti-Zionizm is Anti-Semitism. The Jewish students at american campuses have a reason to fear for their life when they hear chanting "Free Palestine" and "Globalize Intifada", prior to 1933 Jews felt very secure in Germany, they were also sitting on the loan with their German peers and discussing authenticity of "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion" but then came Holocaust.
