Unreleased images of Nazi atrocities make it clear that there is NO genocide in Gaza.

A series of recently recovered images of the atrocities committed by the Nazis against the Jewish people during World War II has once again brought the unique gravity of the Holocaust to the forefront.

The images, of harrowing rawness, depict scenes of systematic extermination, torture, and degradation in the concentration camps.

The dissemination of the visual material seeks not only to preserve historical memory but also to confront a narrative that is increasingly widespread in certain ideological sectors: the equation of Israeli military actions in Gaza with the Nazi genocide.

The Minister of the Diaspora and the Fight Against Antisemitism, Amijai Chikli, was categorical when presenting the material. “This is genocide. This is a concentration camp. We can no longer remain silent in the face of the abuse and distortion of the memory of the Holocaust,” he declared through his official account, alongside some of the images shared.

Chikli's words are directed squarely at the attempts of radicalized sectors, mainly from the global left, which have labeled Israel's response in Gaza as “genocide” following the terrorist attack of October 7, 2023, perpetrated by Hamas.

That massacre left more than 1,200 Israeli civilians dead, many of them tortured or mutilated, and triggered a military self-defense campaign by the State of Israel.

Experts point out that comparisons between the Holocaust and the conflict in Gaza are not only historically inaccurate but also morally offensive.

The Nazi genocide involved the industrialization of death and the deliberate annihilation of a people for ethnic and racial reasons, something diametrically opposed to Israel's objective of neutralizing a terrorist organization that attacks from civilian areas.

The irresponsible use of the term “genocide” to describe the current conflict not only distorts contemporary facts but trivializes one of humanity's greatest tragedies. The images recovered from the Holocaust remind us with brutal clarity what is—and what is not—a genocide.
