It’s sad to see that even our elders who have survived the holocaust are attacked by these shameful people. Holocaust survivors have been really outspoken about Israel but they are ignored and get tossed aside. It doesn’t matter what age said person was during the holacaust, they still have experience of that time. More experience than anyone of us can have and nothing can take that experience away and diminish it.

1/3 of Holocaust survivors and their families live in poverty, and many Zionist groups outright called them weak for letting it happen. There's a reason many articles call Sho'ah survivors the forgotten jews of Israel.
