Here is most of a column published in Al Ahram written by columnist Dr.Waheed Abdul Majeed:
One of the few advantages of the International Court of Justice’s interim decision in the Gaza genocide case is that it stripped the Israeli entity of the victim’s garment that it had worn for so long, and dressed it in the garment of the perpetrator that befits it, and put it in a cage accused of committing the crime of which the Zionists have long claimed to be victims, even though what happened to them was much, much smaller than the genocide they are carrying out now and its type....This is why it has become necessary to review the history of World War II in its relationship with all the events that preceded it. One of the most important things that needs to be reviewed is the responsibility of the German leader Adolf Hitler for that war, as he was leading a country seeking to liberate lands that were forcibly taken from it after the World War I, and to put an end to the humiliation imposed on him by countries whose criminal record exceeds that of any other country, including Germany.It is also important to review the extent of the crime called the Holocaust, and the circumstances that surrounded and led to it. Its size has been multiplied many times, and the number of its victims has been swelled to no limits. But more important than the number that has been disputed for decades is reviewing the circumstances in which the crime was committed at a time when some Jews represented major problem throughout Europe.The so-called Jewish question has been at the forefront of political and cultural concerns since the crystallization of the nation-state in Europe. The question that requires an objective and courageous answer in this review can be posed as follows: If the situation of the Jews and the activity of some of them was considered a problem in many European countries at that time, is there any evidence that this problem became more acute in Germany when it fought a war with the hope of liberating its land and regaining her dignity?...What is important is that there be a possibility of comparison between Hitler’s crime in the 1940s and the current unprecedented crime of the Zionists and the West to the extent that any other crime pales next to it.
Once again, this is not a marginal media outlet, and Majeed is not a marginal personality - he is the director of Al-Ahram Center for Political and Strategic Studies which also reflects the Egyptian state thinking.
Antisemitism is official Egyptian policy.
