(Jewish Group) Pamphlets blaming Holocaust on LGBT people appear for 2nd time in a week

Pamphlets blaming the Holocaust on LGBTQ+ people and accusing the LGBTQ+ community of desiring "political supremacy" appeared in Rosh Haayin on Tuesday, a week after they were distributed in Haifa, according to KAN news.

Hundreds of the pamphlets have been distributed in both Haifa and Rosh Haayin and it remains unclear who is producing and distributing them.

"Many blamed God for allowing the horrors of the Holocaust to materialize. However, the facts show that before 1933, homosexual activity was illegal in Germany, but after the Nazi takeover these laws were changed. It has been said in the past that if these laws had been enforced in Germany, the Holocaust would not have happened," read one of the claims made in the 26-page pamphlets.

Homosexuals were one of the groups specifically targeted by the Nazi regime, with the US Holocaust Memorial Museum noting that "according to many survivor accounts, pink triangle prisoners were among the most abused groups in the camps."
