Germany and Israel: from historical responsibility to criminal complicity

Posted on | AURDIP

Germany, which brandishes the « Staatsräson » (raison d’état) as the absolute justification for its support of Israel, hijacks the memory of the Holocaust to cover up the genocide in Gaza. This posture is accompanied by a fierce McCarthyism against any dissenting voice, equating criticism of Israel with anti-Semitism. This AURDIP report examines the mechanisms of this drift, its consequences and the rare attempts at resistance.

Urgent Appeal to Suspend Israel’s Participation in EU Research Programs Following ICJ Interim Order on Gaza Genocide

Posted on | AURDIP

AURDIP and four European academic organizations urge the EU to suspend Israel’s participation in EU research programs following the International Court of Justice’s interim order, which found plausible claims of genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. The letter highlights Israel’s violations of international law and criticizes EU funding that may support these actions. It calls for compliance with the ICJ order and an end to EU support for Israel until it adheres to international law and ethical standards.

The invocation of Amalek in Israel: from extremist religious rhetoric to a totalitarian project culminating in the genocide in Gaza

Posted on | AURDIP

This AURDIP report focuses on a fundamental aspect of the anatomy of the ongoing genocide in Gaza. It shows that the invocation of Amalek in Israeli public discourse has shifted in recent decades from extremist religious rhetoric to ideological indoctrination in the social and political arena. At the end of a long process initiated in 1967 in the aftermath of the Six Day War, it has now become a political agenda leading to the development of an increasingly violent and aggressive policy of colonization and apartheid, culminating in the ongoing genocide for which Amalek has become the code name.

CNRS must comply with ICJ order and end all scientific cooperation with Israel

Posted on | AURDIP | Traduction MH pour l'AURDIP

Ivar Ekeland, president of AURDIP, wrote to Antoine Petit, President and CEO of the CNRS, to express surprise that the CNRS is relaunching new Franco-Israeli cooperation projects after the order of the International Court of Justice (ICJ ) of January 26, 2024 which highlights the strong risks that Israel is currently committing genocide in Gaza.
