the accusation of genocide is not just a political position, but is also being acknowledged by serious academic voices within Israel.

Translated from Spanish
An Israeli professor of Holocaust Studies, with nearly 30 years of experience researching genocides and state violence, has broken the silence.
“My name is Amos Goldberg. I am an Israeli professor. I have dedicated nearly three decades to studying the Holocaust, genocide, and mass violence.
After everything I have researched and taught… what Israel is doing in Gaza is a genocide.”
Amos Goldberg is not just any activist. He is a recognized academic within Israel, a specialist in one of the most sensitive topics for Israeli society.
His statement carries enormous weight because it does not come from the radical left or Palestinian activism, but from someone who has spent his life studying how genocides are constructed and justified.
When an Israeli Holocaust expert uses that word with full awareness, he is breaking one of the strongest taboos within his own society: comparing the actions of the State of Israel to the historical patterns he himself has studied.
This shows that the accusation of genocide is not just a political position, but is also being acknowledged by serious academic voices within Israel.
Why do you think statements like Amos Goldberg's are so important for breaking the dominant narrative?
Do you think more Israeli academics and intellectuals will dare to speak with this kind of clarity?Rate this translation:
