A little-picked-up story from Luton Today shows how at risk the memory of the Holocaust is from people who think they're supporting the cause of the Palestinian people.
As if to re-iterate the fact that the Holocaust can barely be mentioned today without the most crass equivalences being made with the situation of the Palestinians, just read some of the comments which Guardian readers voiced in response to a perfectly anodyne article about the Holocaust a few days ago.

Why can't you make an equivalence of an historical event with a current situation if they are equivalent?
