Descrizione
The Shoah is heavily represented in the daily discourse in Israel. It is widely used to express extreme emotions such as anger, contempt, helplessness and frustration towards authoritarian practices and injustice. One of the most rhetorical practices is the comparison made between the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories and the Nazi regime.
