The Daffodil That Poisons Memory
Why wearing a daffodil on April 19th is not a tribute to the ghetto uprising fighters, but rather a conscious or unconscious support for the Israeli narrative? Łukasz Gajewski analyzes how the memory of the Holocaust has been hijacked by Israeli propaganda, becoming a tool to legitimize policies towards Palestinians. He cites Finkelstein, Maté, and Boehm to expose the mechanism in which Jewish trauma serves as fuel for militarism and violence.
