Jews Sound The Alarm, Warning the Nations: 'Never Again' is Now

Isaiah 62 Declaration is publicly released

June 27, 2022; JERUSALEM — A CRY HAS GONE UP from Jerusalem warning the world that the events that led up to the Holocaust are being repeated in our times, potentially with similarly devastating outcomes. 

The warning comes in the Isaiah 62 Declaration, a document stating that the political response to Covid included suppression of civil liberties, and policies which led to the exclusion from society of groups regarded as unhealthy or unclean, or otherwise undesirable - in clear parallel to the events of the 1930s which paved the way for the Holocaust to take place. 

In 2021, around the world, vast numbers of people who had chosen not to, or were unable to be vaccinated against Covid-19 were excluded from public areas, denied life-saving medical care, and lost their livelihoods, in clear contravention of the Nuremberg Code, which prohibits coercion into medical treatment. 

This sent a clear signal to citizens that unvaccinated and unmasked people were legitimate targets for persecution. In Tel Aviv, an opera-goer who was unable to wear a mask was surrounded by a mob of fellow audience-members and had to be physically escorted away for her own safety. She then had to watch the performance she had come to see with a security guard by her side. 

Although some of those restrictions have since been relaxed, to this day, unvaccinated people are banned from travelling to America, Australia, and Spain, among other countries. Vaccine mandates are still in place in many workplaces. Children are still being made to mask in schools. 

Meanwhile, many governments are warning that restrictions may return. Just today (Monday, June 27), Pakistan reintroduced a mask mandate on domestic flights, showing how easily restrictions, once established, can be brought back into effect. 1

Donna Rachel Edmunds, founder of the Declaration, said: “In the last two years, unvaccinated people around the world have been excluded from full participation in society under the guise of ‘public health’, yet no evidence exists that excluding people based solely on vaccination status could or would slow the spread of disease. A moment’s thought will tell you that an uninfected person cannot spread a disease, and we know that vaccination status has no bearing on whether or not a person is likely to be infected with SARS-CoV-2 — indeed, the evidence now suggests those who have been vaccinated are more likely to have Covid, and that they too can spread it. 

“Rather than reflecting ‘The Science’, these policies far more closely echo the Nazi’s insistence that Jews spread typhus, a claim that led directly to the creation of the Warsaw ghetto, and a consequent spike in the number of typhus cases at that time. 2, 3

“As Jews, we carry the responsibility of our history. We owe it to the memories of those who died in the Holocaust to give their tragic deaths meaning, by making sure that a similar fate can never befall other innocent people. For that reason, we must speak out when we see the same pattern repeating, and sound the warning bell. That is what we are now doing with the Isaiah 62 declaration.”
