On Holocaust Memorial Day [HMD], we will be holding the fourth anti-Zionist memorial meeting commemorating the victims of the Nazi holocaust. The victims include, not just Jews but Roma and Sinti, the Disabled, Gays, Russian prisoners-of-war as well as millions of civilians – in particular Russians and Poles.

The official HMD organisation only recognises Jews as victims of the Holocaust. All other categories are relegated to the status of victims of Nazi persecution.

Under the heading genocide today the HMD site mentions a number of genocides such as when UN human rights investigators accused ISIS of committing genocide against the Yazidis. It cites how years of persecution and cultural repression of Uyghur Muslims in China ‘all bear the hallmarks of genocide’.

The HMD also cites how, in Myanmar,

In January 2020 the International Court of Justice (ICJ) ordered Myanmar to take steps to prevent genocide, in a landmark case filed by The Gambia.

There is only one genocide that the HMD does not recognise. This despite the fact that the ICJ, in its order of 26 January 2026, in the case brought by South Africa found that Israel was plausibly committing genocide in Gaza.

The UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry went even further. It found, in a report of September 2025 that Israel was committing genocide against the Palestinians.

So although the HMD is happy to quote the ICJ in respect of the Rohinga and UN Human Rights investigators in the case of the Yazidis, it refuses to acknowledge that both the ICJ and the UN have recognised that Israel is committing genocide.

Palestinian victims of genocide are excluded from the HMD commemorations because the purpose of these events is not to combat racism and imperialism but to reinforce Israel’s claim to inherit the memory of the Jewish victims of the holocaust.

The HMD events do not commemorate any genocide that preceded the Nazi genocide. The slave trade, the Herero-Nama and Armenian genocides, which were the precursor of the Nazi holocaust, go unmentioned.

The hypocrisy of the HMD Trust is no surprise. HMD was set up by Tony Blair, who together with George Bush, was responsible for murdering one million Iraqis in an illegal war.

The Holocaust has become integral to the imperialist narrative and a weapon used to support the Israeli state in its ethnic cleansing and genocide of the Palestinians. The reason for this is that Israel is the projection of western power in the oil rich Middle East. According to Alexander Haig, Ronald Reagan’s Secretary of State

Israel constitutes the largest US aircraft carrier that cannot be sunk, does not carry even one US soldier, and is located in a most critical region for US national security.

An accounting by the western imperialist states of their record during the Nazi holocaust is also conspicuous by its absence. Nowhere is any mention made of the United States and UK refusal to admit to their territories all but a handful of Jewish refugees.

Anthony Eden, the British Foreign Secretary, was concerned that if Britain offered to take in Jewish refugees then: ‘Hitler might well take us up on any such offer.’ [Bernard Wasserstein, Britain and the Jews of Europe, p. 168].

The Cabinet Committee on Jewish Refugees sent a memo to the US State Department on 20 January 1943 warning that:

there is a possibility that the Germans or their satellites may change over from the policy of extermination to one of extrusion.

Fortunately for the Committee Hitler never wavered in his commitment to extermination. The obsession with refugees led to the gas chambers yesterday and today the bottom of the English Channel.

A letter sent by the Ministry of Economic Affairs to US Ambassador Winant in London, explained how:

The Foreign Office are concerned with the difficulties of disposing of any considerable numbers of Jews should they be rescued from enemy-occupied territory...’.[Arthur Morse, While Six Million Died, p. 85., Winant to State Department 15.4.43].

The Silence of the Zionist Holocaust Memorial Organisations

Karen Pollock of Britain’s Holocaust Education Trust is typical of the Zionist holocaust industry in her condemnation of the ‘shameful’ comparisons between the Gaza holocaust and the Nazi genocide. To Pollock drawing universal lessons from the holocaust was something to be avoided.

This set the tone for all the other Zionist run holocaust memorial organisations. Despite telling us that we have to learn the lessons of the holocaust, the only lesson they draw is in teaching that we must defend the Israeli state no matter how many Palestinians they slaughter.

Every single international human rights organisation  has concluded that what has happened in Gaza is a genocide – from Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, Btselem and the UN to the Lemkin Genocide Institute in its coruscating statement condemning the

the persistent efforts by several high-profile German civil society organizations to deny the ongoing genocide in Gaza and to disseminate disinformation and denialist narratives among German political decision-makers.

It was Raphael Lemkin, a Polish Jewish Lawyer, who first coined the word ‘Genocide’ and was largely responsible for the adoption internationally of the Genocide Convention.

When the Los Angeles Holocaust Museum [LAHM] posted a message on Instagram which featured a drawing of a hexagon formed by six linked arms — with the words ‘Never Again’ Can’t Only Mean Never Again For Jews.’ there was a furious backlash from Zionists. The message was interpreted as referring to Gaza. One commentator wrote that

This post is beyond disgraceful. Whoever created, approved, and posted this should be ashamed of themselves. Our ancestors are rolling in their graves.

Two days later, the museum deleted the post and published an apology. The museum issued a new statement:

We recently posted an item on social media that was part of a pre-planned campaign intended to promote inclusivity and community that was easily open to misinterpretation by some to be a political statement reflecting the ongoing situation in the Middle East. That was not our intent.

The LAHM promised to ‘do better’ next time. ‘Never Again’ in the eyes of Zionists excludes the Palestinian victims of Western imperialism. Never Again only applies to Jews.

Every single holocaust museum and institution has refused to recognise, still less condemn, Israel’s genocide or compare what Israel was doing to the Jewish holocaust.

Yad Vashem and the Silence of the Holocaust Historians

The genocide in Gaza posed a difficulty for Yad Vashem, [YV] Israel’s holocaust museum. Established in 1953 YV’s purpose was to formulate a hegemonic narrative of the Holocaust that would accord with the Zionist paradigm.

How could YV condemn the very state that founded it for perpetrating a genocide? According to YV the holocaust occurred, not because of German imperialism and fascism but because of their eternal hatred of Jews.

Central to this was the foundational myth of Israel as a refuge from anti-Semitism, according to which, if Israel had been in existence, then there would have been no holocaust.

What the Zionist narrative didn’t say was that if the Zionist movement had not existed, more Jews would have survived and possibly the Hitler regime itself would have collapsed or been overthrown.

Rather than seeing the Nazi holocaust as the product of German imperialism and fascism, YV posited a mono-causal explanation – anti-Semitism. Anti-Semitism explained everything: fascism, anti-communism, eugenics, racial hygiene, lebensraum and anti-modernism.

For Zionism anti-Semitism was caused by the Jews:

Where it [anti-Semitism] does not exist, it is carried by Jews in the course of their migrations. We naturally move to those places where we are not persecuted, and there our presence produces persecution. [Herzl, The Jewish State, pp. 14-15].

YV was never an anti-racist or anti-fascist institution. It was a Zionist organisation. YV has rebuffed many invitations in the past to widen its remit and condemn particularly flagrant examples of Israeli and Zionist racism. It was established next to the site of Deir Yassin, the most famous massacre of the Nakba, yet it doesn’t even acknowledge this fact.

Zionist holocaust history fights against universalising the lessons of the holocaust. The Nazi holocaust is unique and Jews are its sole victims. There is only one lesson of the holocaust that Zionism and YV permit and that is the creation and existence of Israel as a Jewish state. If the Holocaust is unique then no lessons can be drawn.

The fact that the Yishuv, Palestine’s Jewish community, was unable to accept more than a fraction of the Jews in danger during the 1930s was conveniently forgotten.

In his address to the 20^th Zionist Congress in August 1937, Chaim Weizmann recalled being asked whether Palestine could accommodate Europe's Jews. He told the delegates that

The old ones will pass, they will bear their fate or they will not. They are dust, economic and moral dust, in a cruel world... Two millions, and perhaps less (will survive) ... We have to accept it.

Zionism was an obstacle to the rescue of Jews. The Zionist movement repeatedly complained that a focus on saving Jewish refugees from the Nazis was a distraction from the main task, which for them was building a Jewish state.

In January 1933 David Ben-Gurion warned that:

‘Zionism… is not primarily engaged in saving individuals’ and that if there was ‘a conflict of interest between saving individual Jews and the good of the Zionist enterprise, we shall say the enterprise comes first.’ [Biography, The Burning Ground, p.855]

YV had no intention of changing when Israel was becoming openly genocidal. When 50 holocaust researchers asked YV to condemn the genocidal statements made by Israeli politicians, military and other public figures, including Israeli government ministers and Prime Minister Netanyahu himself, its Chairman, Dani Dayan refused. 

Dayan asserted that the Israeli army was not conducting a genocide but was acting ‘within the constraints Hamas imposes on us to comply with the proper moral standards and the laws of war.’ One can only assume that the complete destruction of Gaza’s civilian and health infrastructure, to say nothing of the extermination of thousands of Palestinians, are what passes for high moral standards at YV.

Dayan told those who suggested that YV say something about the holocaust in Gaza that:

the outrageous statements you cited do not express the moral position of the very large majority of the Israeli public or the IDF and its commanders.

Yet all the evidence was that the statements cited were very much the position of the IDF and Israeli Jews. The IDF was putting those statements into practice in Gaza whilst he was speaking. YV refused to acknowledge the clear evidence that the extermination of the Palestinians in Gaza was supported by a majority of Israeli Jews.

A March 2025 poll by Penn State University found that 47% of Jewish Israelis agreed with the idea that the Israeli army, when conquering a city, should kill all of its inhabitants, referencing the biblical conquest of Jericho. The poll found that 65% of Israeli Jews believe a modern-day version of Amalek exists and that 93% believe the biblical commandment to “blot out the memory of Amalek” is still relevant. In other words over 60% of Israeli Jews supported exterminating the Palestinians of Gaza.

Another poll from Israeli research group, the aChord Center, found that 76% of Jewish Israelis either fully or partially agreed with the suggestion that none of Gaza's remaining pre-war population were innocent.

The IDF that Dayan praised so highly was the same IDF which set up torture camps for Palestinians, raped to death doctors and which used Palestinian children as target practice.

A poll from Jerusalem’s Hebrew University in June 2025 showed that contrary to Dayan, 64% of Israelis agreed that there are ‘no innocents in Gaza.’ When Israeli Arabs, 92% of whom opposed the statement, are removed then it meant that three out of every four Israeli Jews supported genocide.

Dayan was Secretary-General of the fascist anti-Arab Tehiya party and a candidate on its list to the Knesset in the Israeli elections in 1988 and 1992.

Dayan was also Chairman of the Executive of the Yesha Council, a federation of Jewish settlements in the West Bank. In 2015 Brazil rejected him as Israel’s Ambassador because of his fascist credentials. It is a fitting commentary on Zionism’s memorialisation of the Nazi holocaust that the Chairman of its holocaust remembrance authority is a fascist.

Where YV led, the world’s holocaust organisations followed. Not one holocaust organisation has condemned Israel’s genocide in Gaza. Not one has declared that the lesson of the Nazi holocaust ‘Never Again’ applied to all people, Jewish and non-Jewish, Palestinians included.

That is why, for the fourth year running, we are holding an anti-Zionist commemoration of the Nazi holocaust. Our aim is to challenge the pro-imperialist events as hypocritical virtue signalling. Amongst our speakers will be two Jewish survivors of the holocaust, Stephen Kapos and Suzanne Weiss

Echoes of the Holocaust – Holocaust Survivors Compare Israel’s Treatment of the Palestinians To Their Own Experiences

Despite The Zionists Best Efforts, Holocaust Education Has Backfired on Them - Jewish Children Are Drawing the Lessons that Never Again Applies to Everyone!

Tony Greenstein on Hidden Link between Zionism and Antisemitism -  Palestine Chronicle Podcast

I was invited by the Palestine Chronicle to do a podcast on my book Zionism During the Holocaust and to talk about the relationship between Zionism and Anti-Semitism, both today and historically.

Zionism in its origins was a reaction to anti-Semitism and in particular the 1881 pogroms in Odessa that occurred because of the assassination of Czar Alexander II.

Echoes of the Holocaust - Holocaust Survivors Speak of their Anguish at Israel's Nazi-like Genocide

Zionism however was a reaction with a difference. Unlike most Jewish political currents it ‘understood’ anti-Semitism as the understandable reaction of non-Jews to the Jewish stranger in their midst. Zionism began with the belief that anti-Semitism could not be fought as it was inherent in the non-Jew. This was summed up by Leon Pinsker, the founder of the Lovers of Zion group in 1882 that

‘Judeophobia is then a mental disease, and as a mental disease it is hereditary, and having been inherited for 2,000 years, it is incurable

Pinsker was a doctor so he saw anti-Semitism as a phobia. If it was incurable why fight it?  At best you should need a palliative. The Zionist solution to anti-Semitism was a state of their own. It soon realised that the anti-Semites would be only too willing to help them. Their best friends became the very anti-Semites who had been staging the pogroms.

Both the Zionists and the anti-Semites agreed that Jews did not belong where they lived and both agreed that Jews should emigrate and form their own state. As the founder of Political Zionism Theodor Herzl noted in his Diaries in 1895:

The anti-Semites will be our most dependable friends, the anti-Semitic countries our allies.

And he was correct. There is no greater friend of Israel than Victor Orban, Hungary’s Prime Minister. Orban described the wartime ruler of Hungary, Admiral Horthy, as an ‘exceptional statesman’, despite having presided over the deportation of nearly half a million Jews to Auschwitz.  Orban waged an openly anti-Semitic election campaign in 2017 using George Soros, the Jewish billionaire as his scapegoat. Yet there is no European leader who is closer to Netanyahu and more supportive of the genocide in Gaza than Orban.

Throughout the two years of genocide the most ardent supporters of Zionism and the genocide have been the Islamaphobic right. People like Tommy Robinson and Geert Wilders. They may not like Jews but they love Israel. Donald Trump personifies this with his talk of American Jews not being loyal enough to Israel which is ‘their country’.

What is interesting is what my interviewer, Robert Inlakesh, brought up, about the dilemma expressed by Sarah Hurwitz, the former Obama speechwriter, member of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Council and dedicated Zionist activist.

Former Obama speechwriter faces backlash for pro-Israel comments | MEE Explains

Hurwitz’s speech on November 16, 2025, at the General Assembly of the Jewish Federations of North America in Washington set off a firestorm because she said out aloud what has been troubling Zionists privately, namely the contrast between holocaust education that teaches that the extermination of Europe’s Jews is wrong and the Holocaust in Gaza which Zionists believe is right.

Of course this wouldn’t be a problem if holocaust education was about how all racism, ethnic cleansing and genocide is wrong. The problem is that Holocaust education tries to combine two messages – exterminating people is bad but supporting Israel is good.  Except that Israel is also exterminating Palestinians, hence the dilemma.

Israel is seen as compensation for the holocaust. How to square this with the holocaust in Gaza perpetrated by that very same state? This is the ‘problem’ that Hurwitz tackled, admitting that her hasbara attempts to bridge the gap are making her seem ‘obscene’ to Jewish kids.

In her short rant she accepted that coming to young people with her data, facts and arguments when all they could see on their phones was carnage made her look obscene. Her solution was to confiscate the phones of young people!

This is exemplified by the fact that not one Holocaust Remembrance institution has condemned the Holocaust in Gaza. Indeed the Los Angeles Holocaust Museum actually apologised for suggesting that ‘Never Again’ applied to everyone, with the implication that Palestinians might be included.

The LA Holocaust Museum’s anodyne statement merely said “Never Again’ Can't Only Mean Never Again For Jews.”  This produced an avalanche of protest from racist Zionists who believed that ‘Never Again’ only meant Jews.

The Los Angeles holocaust museum’s pathetic apology read:

“We recently posted an item on social media that was part of a pre-planned campaign intended to promote inclusivity and community that was easily open to misinterpretation by some to be a political statement reflecting the ongoing situation in the Middle East. That was not our intent,”

Hurwitz achieved her moment of fame when she articulated the problems that Zionists like herself face.  How to portray Israelis in a good light when the lesson that most young people draw from holocaust education is equating strong Nazis persecuting emaciated Jews with strong Israelis persecuting skinny Palestinians.

Sarah Hurwitz Explaining Why She Sounds Obscene

"So you have TikTok just smashing our young people's brains all day long with video of carnage in Gaza. And this is why so many of us can't have a sane conversation with younger Jews because anything that we try to say to them, they are hearing it through this wall of carnage. So I want to give data and information and facts and arguments and they are just seeing in their minds carnage and I sound obscene... Holocaust education is absolutely essential. But I think it may be confusing some of our young people about antisemitism, because they learn about big, strong Nazis hurting weak, emaciated Jews, and they think, 'Oh, antisemitism is like anti-black racism, right? Powerful white people against powerless black people.' So when on TikTok, all day long, they see powerful Israelis hurting weak, skinny Palestinians, it's not surprising that they think, 'Oh, I know the lesson of the Holocaust is you fight Israel. You fight the big, powerful people hurting the weak people."

My book deals in some detail with the Zionist attitude to the holocaust. Zionism holds that the holocaust is unique.  Nothing like it has ever happened before nor will it happen again. The Holocaust is sui generis.  It cannot be compared. And if the holocaust is unique then one cannot draw any lessons from it, certainly no anti-racist lessons.  The only conclusion that one is permitted to draw is the one conclusion that is demonstrably false, namely that Israel was given to the Jews as compensation for 6 million dead.

The Nazi holocaust only happened to one people, the Jews, in Zionist eyes. The Roma, Russians, gays etc. suffered genocide maybe but certainly not holocaust. That is reserved for the Jews. Holocaust education is therefore formulated with those lessons in mind. Holocaust education is designed with the legitimation of Israel in mind. Holocaust memorial institutions have this as their main goal. Yad Vashem serves as the focus of this Holocaust State Worship.

The head of Yad Vashem, Israel's renowned Holocaust museum, rejects a letter from 50 Holocaust experts calling on him to condemn the rash of statements from senior Israeli figures calling for genocide in Gaza.

Yad Vashem, he says, is not interested in the universal lessons of…

— Jonathan Cook (@Jonathan_K_Cook) January 18, 2024

In the Gaza Holocaust Yad Vashem has refused the entreaties of holocaust and genocide scholars to condemn the genocide in Gaza. Yad Vashem itself is presided over by a fascist settler, Dani Dayan, who Brazil refused to accept as Ambassador because of his racism and right-wing views.

In April 1976 John Vorster, South Africa's PM, Who was Interned as a Nazi Supporter, Visited Israel

Yad Vashem has entertained a bevy of neo-Nazis and anti-Semites beginning with the visit of Prime Minister of Apartheid South Africa, John Vorster in April 1976. Vorster was interned during the war because of his Nazi sympathies. Other visitors include Hungary’s far-right Prime Minister Orban, the Hitler loving Presidents of the Philippines and Brazil, Rodrigo Duterte and Jair Bolsanaro and assorted far rightists.

Zionism and Anti-Semitism go together like a hand and a glove. They make perfect partners.

When ex-Israeli Minister Feiglin Said That Just As Hitler Wanted to Expel all Jews the Zionists Want to Expel All Palestinians He Was Telling the Truth

 When Zionism During the Holocaust was Published Even Many Anti-Zionists Couldn’t Accept that Israel was a Reflection of the Nazi State - Today all that has changed

John Mearsheimer and the Nazification of Israel

In the autumn of 2022 I brought out the first book on Zionist-Nazi collaboration since Lenni Brenner 40 years ago. I wasn’t to know that a year later Israel was to embark on a genocide that bore remarkable similarity to the Nazi holocaust.

'ERASE All Palestinians' - Popular Israeli Podcasters Claim Most Share Their Genocidal Fantasy

At first people like Owen Jones recoiled against any suggestion that the Zionists had collaborated with the Nazis. In a reply to Asa Winstanley Jones wrote an article ‘No, Jews did not collaborate in their own genocide’ Jones soon found out that the comparisons between the Zionists and the Nazis were true.

The holocaust in Gaza began with the declaration of Defence Minister Yoav Gallant that the Palestinians were ‘human animals’ the very phrase that Himmler had used on 4 October 1943 at Posen about the untermenschen, the lower races.

Comparisons with the Nazi outlook and actions abounded. Prime Minister Netanyahu declared on October 28 that

You must remember what Amalek has done to you, says our Holy Bible. And we do remember.

Video. Did Israeli children really sing about annihilating everyone in Gaza?

Israel’s public broadcaster, Kan, broadcast a video of Israeli school children singing ‘The Friendship Song’ which declared that the Palestinians of Gaza should be ‘annihilated’.

Israel’s Labor Zionist President, Isaac Hertzog, stated that

The entire [Palestinian] nation out there that is responsible. It is not true this rhetoric about civilians not aware, not involved.

with the clear implication that they should be wiped out.

Genocidal statements by Government Ministers abounded. South Africa in its application to the International Court of Justice submitted a 500 page document containing multiple genocidal statements by Israeli leaders.

For example Israel’s Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich said that

No one in the world will allow us to starve 2 million people, even though it might be justified and moral in order to free the hostages.

In fact Israel had consistently implemented a policy of restricting food aid to the minimum and from March 2025 imposed a total blockade on food and water imports. He went on to say that “Gaza will be entirely destroyed”. 

The reality of the Gaza holocaust made Zionism During the Holocaust highly relevant. Calls for the extermination of every last single Palestinian abounded. Israel’s oldest podcast by Two Nice Jewish Boys fantasised about pressing a button and getting rid of every Palestinian in Gaza and the West Bank. Elad Barashi, a famous Israeli television producer even called for the introduction of gas chambers.

Shimon Elkabetz, the chairman of the Israel Film Council explained on Channel i24 News that "With this enemy, it's just like using a lice comb. Just kill them. Just exterminate them."   One can only assume that Elkabetz hadn’t read Hitler’s Mein Kampf where he said of German-Jewish emigrants to America that they were a 'lice-ridden migration.' [p.320, tr. Ralph Manheim]  

We have the irony of Israel on the one hand solemnly remembering the extermination of Europe’s Jews during the Holocaust. At the same time they are carrying out the extermination of the Palestinians. This isn’t simply cognitive dissonance. It is old fashioned settler colonialism with the holocaust as its protective shield. Is it any wonder that Tommy Robinson is so enamoured with Israel?

Zionism had stripped the holocaust of any contemporary or universal meaning. This only became apparent to many people after October 7 but it had always been apparent. Israel helped the Guatemalan Junta in the 1980’s to perpetrate a genocide of the Mayan Indians. Israel was the closest ally of the Apartheid state in South Africa. At the same time Israel also instituted a regime of Jewish Supremacy in Israel itself. Beginning with ethnic cleansing, as had Hitler, it ended up with genocide.

One thing that Zionism During the Holocaust had done which Brenner did not do was to focus on the ideological legitimisers of Israeli racism and ethnic cleansing, the holocaust industry.

I showed that these holocaust memorial organisations, because they had posited that the Nazi holocaust of Jews was unique, had depoliticised and ethnicised it. Never Again only meant Jews no one else.

Karen Pollock of Britain’s Holocaust Education Trust condemned the ‘shameful’ comparisons between the holocaust in Gaza and the Nazi genocide. In Pollock’s eyes, drawing universal conclusions from the holocaust was ‘shameful’.

When the Los Angeles Holocaust Museum posted a message on Instagram, the first slide of which featured a drawing of a hexagon formed by six linked arms — with the words ‘Never Again’ Can’t Only Mean Never Again For Jews.’ there was furious response from Zionists. The message was interpreted as referring to the genocide in Gaza. One commentator wrote that

This post is beyond disgraceful. Whoever created, approved, and posted this should be ashamed of themselves. Our ancestors are rolling in their graves.

Two days later, the museum deleted the post and published an apology. Unlike the first Instagram post, the museum blocked people from commenting.

The Los Angeles Holocaust Museum wasn’t alone. Every single holocaust museum and institution has refused to recognise, still less condemn, Israel’s genocide or compare what Israel was doing to the actions of the Nazis.

When 50 holocaust researchers asked Yad Vashem, Israel’s holocaust propaganda museum, to condemn the genocidal statements made by Israeli politicians, military and other public figures, its Chair Dani Dayan refused.

Instead Dayan asserted that the Israeli army was not conducting a genocide but was acting ‘within the constraints Hamas imposes on us to comply with the proper moral standards and the laws of war.’

Dayan himself was Secretary-General of the fascist anti-Arab Tehiya party, and a candidate to the Knesset on its list in the Israeli legislative elections in 1988 and 1992.

Dayan was also on the Executive of the settler Yesha Council, which is the local government for West Bank settlers. Unsurprisingly in 2015 Brazil rejected him as Israel’s nomination as its Ambassador because of his fascist credentials. Clearly Dani Dayan is well suited, from the Zionist standpoint, to run Yad Vashem!

One can only assume that support for the destruction of Gaza’s hospitals, universities and extermination of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians are what passes for high moral standards at Yad Vashem.

The first edition of Zionism During the Holocaust was self published. It sold over 5,000 copies. I have now been offered and signed a contract with Verso Books to publish a second edition which will come out in 2027. It will include a new chapter on the Holocaust in Gaza. The book is likely to be very different from the first edition.

In the meantime I have terminated my contract with New Generation Publishers which means that no further copies of the book will be printed.

I have a few copies that I purchased before signing the new contract and if anyone wants to purchase a copy they should contact me at tonygreenstein104@gmail.com. The price will be £12.50 per copy for those in Britain but postage will be about £15 extra for those in Europe and £ 28 extra for those in the United States and Canada.
