A recent article, Our position on Palestine cannot be formed unilaterally, explains that the Partys position on Palestinian self-determination is drawn from our fraternal parties. While this is certainly the case, there are gaps within the article which could be precarious in the current moment. In light of the ongoing genocide in Gaza, it is necessary for us as a Party to examine and elaborate on the development of our understanding of zionism and Palestinian self-determination

The Holocaust (Shoah, Hebrew for "catastrophe") refers to the carefully planned genocide of the Jewish people by the Nazis, the "Final Solution," from 193345. It is the most extreme form of racism the world had known until then. The Holocaust differs from other mass murders and forms of brutality in the motivation of the perpetrators (the destruction of a human group for no other reason than that it was considered subhuman in Nazi racist ideology) and the means used (a long process of extreme dehumanization, culminating in gas chambers and death camps).
