Ms. Naomi Kickler: "Isn't the promise 'never repeated' true?"

The Forward newspaper, the most popular Jewish newspaper in the United States, recently wrote, "The world has failed to save us, but we must not fail to save the Uyghurs." An article with the title has been published.

The article was co-authored by Ms. Naomi Kickler, Director of the Center for the Study of the Prevention of Genocide, Simon-Skjod, Memorial Museum of the Jewish Genocide in the United States, and Ms. Rachel Goldfar, a survivor of the Jewish Holocaust. The article strongly condemns the fact that 77 years after the end of the Jewish genocide, the world is watching the Olympics in a country where another genocide is taking place.

"As athletes march on a stadium in Beijing, millions of Uyghurs are being held in Chinese camps in Xinjiang, thousands of kilometers from Beijing, just because they are Uyghurs and Muslims," ​​they wrote in the article.

In an exclusive interview with our radio, Ms. Naomi Kickler said: "I have visited many" Jewish Holocaust survivors. When they heard about the current situation of the Uyghurs, they were saddened by the terrible history they had experienced and said, "Let no one see the day we see." We have failed to keep our promise that it will not be repeated. The bitter reality is just plain visible, so is the promise that we will never be repeated from the world true? We can't help but ask that question. "

"Our focus on the Olympics is that in 1936, Nazi Germany shifted its focus from the Jewish world to the Olympics, and sought to portray a powerful nation to the world," he said. Even if we look at the Chinese government today, they are using the Olympics to cover up their crimes and try to portray China as a prosperous, united, shining country. In my opinion, just as much as Nazi Germany's use of the Olympics at the time was effective, so is China's propaganda during the Olympics today. The Chinese government is pursuing a policy of severe repression against the Uyghurs, committing crimes against humanity, which is on the verge of genocide.

It is reported that after the Berlin Summer Olympics in 1936, discrimination against Jews was on the rise and there was widespread massacre of Jews in Europe. Most of the volunteers at the Jewish Genocide Memorial are members of the "Holocaust Survivors" family, who warn of the need to prevent "genocide" from occurring anywhere in the world.

"We know very well what will happen if the world does not respond to the warnings and ongoing crimes in a timely manner," the newspaper Alga said in a statement.

Ms. Naomi Kickler stressed that the policy was "very brutal" as China was trying to force Uyghurs to assimilate and assimilate into the Chinese. "The lesson to be learned from the 1936 Berlin Olympics is that the world is not paying attention to the signals that are being seen from all sides," he said. In fact, it was during that race that the symptoms of the "Jewish Holocaust" appeared. At present, we are not only seeing the serious repression of the Uyghurs, but also the crimes being committed. According to our lesson from the 1936 Berlin Olympics, we must take immediate action to save the Uyghurs. As we know, the Berlin Olympics were held in 1936, and in 1941, the massacre of Jews in Europe officially took place.

Finally, Ms. Naomi Kickler stressed that the international media should pay more attention to the Uyghurs and China's human rights abuses during the two weeks of the Olympics in Beijing. He emphasized that the decision was not a signal of a formal antitrust inquiry into Uyghurs.

“My grandfather worked in forced labor camps during the‘ Jewish Holocaust ’,” he said. So I would be relieved to know that any product is produced by forced labor. So we need to ask not only governments and corporations to take action, but each of us to ask ourselves what it means to be "not repeated". It should take another 20 years for the massacre to stop. "It simply came to our notice then.

The Jewish Public Council, the main political center for Jewish groups in the United States, has also condemned the Chinese government's "genocide" against the Uyghurs. . The fact that the Jewish community, which experienced genocide during World War II, has come to the forefront in various forms around the world, their support for justice on the part of the Uyghurs, and the hope for the Uyghur community in exile.
