Kurzfassung:
Notes the contradiction between European commemoration of the Holocaust and criticism of Jews in Israel, where a home was provided for survivors. Collective European Holocaust memory sees the Jews only as victims, and if they are not victims, then they are guilty. Therefore, if the Jewish nation in Israel is victorious in a war, it becomes the guilty party and is condemned as being "Nazi", as are all those who support Israel. Europeans condemn desecrations of Jewish cemeteries, but insist that physical attacks against Jews by Muslims are not antisemitic. In Christianity also the Jew must be the victim, as Jesus was; the "mystical" Jewish Holocaust victim is praised, while the "physical" Jewish nation, Israel, is condemned. In this way, Europeans can consider themselves anti-Zionist, but not antisemitic, and the formerly guilty European countries can become teachers of morality. Delegitimizing Israel has become the moral thing to do and is a step in the direction of another Holocaust.
