A pro-Palestinian rally that took place in Berlin over the weekend left a memorial for children in the Holocaust era vandalized.

The memorial had mosques painted on them in white and one even had a cross on it, suggesting that they were taking over.

Memorial for Holocaust era children was vandalized in Berlin, after pro-Palestinian activities in the area. Despite anti-Israel demonstrations being banned by German authorities over the holiday period, demonstrators had illegally rallied on New Year’s Eve and hundreds were arrested.

While German security forces had to deal with thousands of young lawbreakers throwing explosives and attacking police, vandals sprayed graffiti on the bronze statues of children, covering their eyes and overall degrading the bodies, as well as depicting what looks like a mosque on the chest of one child and one suitcase.

The ‘Trains to Life – Trains to Death’ bronze sculpture by Frank Meisler had been created to commemorate the 10,000 “Kindertransport” Holocaust survivors, contrasted by the millions of other children who were transported by train and killed by the Nazis.

“The monument was not vandalized by accident, the damage to it was intended to weaken the Jewish spirit by damaging the most important symbols to us. All the anti-Semites were told ‘you will not succeed’. There is a clear connection between the denial of the Holocaust and the denial of the acts of terrorism on October 7,” Revital Yakhin Krakowski, deputy director general of the World March for Life, told Israel’s Channel 12.

This is what the memorial means:

The Kindertransport children were unaccompanied by their parents, on trains that went westward to ports that would take the children to the United Kingdom, the United States, and a small number of countries that allowed the entry of the Jewish refugees.

On the other side, as also depicted by the memorial, children awaited their death and were mostly unaccompanied by their parents after being taken by brutal force by the Nazis.
