Abstract:
Argues that collective Holocaust memory in Israel has become a pathologically dangerous myth that is used and exploited by the state apparatus to support its denial of Palestinian rights and suffering. While not suggesting a simplistic analogy between the Holocaust and the Palestinian "Nakba" of 1948, advocates a recognition of Palestinian dispossession that resulted from the establishment of the Jewish state.
