Award Ceremony Canceled Over Writer's Comparison of Gaza to Nazi-era Jewish Ghettos

The Heinrich Böll Foundation has withdrawn its support for an award ceremony honoring Russian-American journalist Masha Gessen after they compared Gaza to a Jewish ghetto in Nazi-occupied Europe. The foundation objected to Gessen's comparison, stating it was unacceptable and rejected their implication that Israel aimed to "liquidate Gaza like a Nazi ghetto." The award will still be presented to Gessen in a different setting, but the ceremony will not take place as planned. Supporters have criticized the decision, highlighting the irony of suspending a prize awarded in memory of Hannah Arendt, a Jewish-American philosopher and political theorist who covered the trial of Adolf Eichmann.

As a result, the foundations withdrew their support, and the Bremen City Hall withdrew permission to use the venue for the ceremony. Gessen is known for writing about political currents and conflicts in the US and Russian society.
