"What does a swastika mean?
The infamous symbol is inflammatory and inscrutable — it can be used to promote fascism and white supremacy, and to condemn it
(. . .)
There is, of course, a tautology at play in the arguments from both Lipstadt and Sharansky: Comparing Israel to the Nazis is antisemitic because it is an outrageous exaggeration. But many of those who make these comparisons argue that there are legitimate parallels to draw between the two governments.
Jean Améry, a Jewish writer from Austria who survived the Holocaust, wrote about his great dismay with the European left’s turn against Israel and Zionism — including Nazi comparisons — but acknowledged disturbing similarities between rumors of Israeli soldiers torturing Palestinian prisoners and his own experience at the hands of the Nazis during the Holocaust, which he said tested his allegiance to the state. 'In my value system, for all that I have experienced the full horror of its concretization, the abstract category ‘human being’ outranks the concept ‘Jew,’' Améry wrote in 1977. 'When barbarism begins, even existential commitments must end.'
Yeshayahu Leibowitz, the brilliant Israeli scientist and public intellectual who escaped Europe for Mandate Palestine shortly before the Holocaust, called Israeli judges who allowed Arab prisoners to be tortured 'Judeo-Nazis' and warned that the entrenched occupation of the West Bank and Gaza coupled with rising ethno-nationalism among Israeli Jews was sending the country down the same road as Germany.
(. . .)
The argument that Israel’s opponents are using the Holocaust in offensive ways to score cheap political points is weakened, somewhat, by the kneejerk insistence by many of the country’s supporters that Iran and Hamas are equivalent to the Nazis and that its Oct. 7 attack was an act of genocide. It seems that both sides of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict remain stuck in a framework where the Holocaust seems like the most potent point of reference.
Israeli philosopher Omri Boehm has lamented that the Israeli government is 'using the memory of the Holocaust to fight human rights' while, at the same time, the global left is dismissing Holocaust remembrance."

The #CoastGuard’s policy softening the definition of #swastikas — an emblem of #fascism & #WhiteSupremacy inextricably linked to the #Nazis’ extermination of millions of #Jews & the deaths of more than 400,000 #US #troops who died fighting in World War II — comes as #antisemitism is on the rise globally. At least 15 people were killed over the weekend at a Hanukkah celebration in #Australia.

The #Trump admin called the article “false,” but within hours of its publication the service’s acting commandant, Adm. Kevin Lunday, issued a memo forcefully denouncing symbols such as #swastikas & #nooses, & emphasizing that both remain prohibited.
Lunday said at the time that his Nov 20 memo would supersede any other language.

#US #CoastGuard enacts policy calling #swastikas, #nooses ‘potentially divisive’ instead of #HateSymbols
The #USCG has allowed a new workplace harassment policy to take effect that downgrades the definition of swastikas and nooses from overt hate symbols to “potentially divisive” despite an uproar over the new language that forced the service’s top officer to declare that both would remain prohibited.

The latest policy that was rolled out late Thursday night also unequivocally banned the display of any divisive or #hate symbols from all #USCG locations. The earlier version stopped short of banning the symbols, instead saying that commanders could take steps to remove them from public view & that the rule did not apply to private spaces outside of public view, such as family housing.

#USCG reverses course on policy to call #swastikas & #nooses 'potentially divisive'
The late-night change came the same day media outlets, led by WaPo, discovered that the #CoastGuard had written a policy…that called those same symbols “potentially divisive.” The term was a shift from a years-long policy…that said symbols like swastikas & nooses were “widely identified with oppression or hatred” & called their display “a potential #hate incident.”

IS ANYBODY SURPRISED BY THIS?
"#Swastikas & #Nooses will no longer be classified as symbols of #hate" in the U.S. military.
BUT "#Pride Flags" are still #banned.
Of course. (Watch to the end. Jen covers the ad Dems put out telling members of the #military not to follow #Illegal Orders, and then provides examples of why such a reminder was necessary.)
