Israeli Historian Ilan Pappé: "If the EU imposed on Israel half the sanctions it imposes on Russia, it would save thousands of Palestinians […] In South Africa, as long as the actions were limited to boycotts and divestments, they did not succeed in overthrowing the apartheid regime. From the moment governments agreed to follow the example of their societies and added sanctions to the boycott, international pressure became an effective tool to help the African National Congress overthrow the apartheid regime. That was the path to follow, alongside the internal struggle, of course. […] today's Zionism is more messianic, far more theocratic, more racist, more dangerous, and much more extremist—not only for Palestine, but also for neighbouring countries. Historical reconciliation was impossible, and yet they still hoped to somehow reconcile universal values like democracy and liberalism with racism and colonialism.[…] The majority of Jews killed during the Holocaust were not Zionists. Many of them were religious Jews, convinced socialists. The Nazis killed very few Zionists, but a considerable number of Jews. Therefore, it is not the victims of the Holocaust who commit these acts, but the state that claims to represent them.
