   I see in that just a modernisation of that monument. 

   I understand upholding the memory of the crimes of German imperialism 
(with the collusion of collaborators in the occupied countries) with the 
genocide of the European Jews, not as a means to justify similar crimes 
from other parties, but as a warning not to repeat such crimes. 

   The protest against the war crimes of the colonial settler state 
Israel (in the interests of US imperialism) is a honoring and a 
continuation of this effort, not its "desecration".
