Guardian headline branded ‘new low for paper’

After the Guardian published a piece titled “Israel must stop weaponising the Holocaust” on its website, the Board of Deputies released the following statement:

“The Guardian’s decision to publish a opinion piece titled “Israel must stop weaponising the Holocaust” was unbelievably crass.

“The article’s failure, for example, to acknowledge the decades-long comparison of Israel to the Nazis – including in Hamas’s genocidal founding charter – sums up the astonishing lack of judgement exhibited. Its publication marks a new low for the paper.”
