The National Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina announces its decision to donate the proceeds from the sale of the publication “Sarajevo Haggadah – History and Art”, as well as the proceeds from tickets to the space where the Sarajevo Haggadah is kept, to help Palestine.
“In this way, the National Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina provides support to the people of Palestine who suffer systematic, calculated and cold-blooded terror, directly from the state of Israel, and indirectly from all those who support and/or justify it in its shameless actions.
In a time when we cannot justify ourselves with a lack of information, any aversion, any feigned neutrality in the face of everyday examples of killing, starvation and forced displacement of hundreds of thousands of civilians, primarily women and children, is an expression of acceptance and complicity in the genocide that we are all witnessing in real time.
As an institution that deals with the protection of cultural, historical and natural heritage, we are obliged to warn that in the shadow of this tragedy, the targeted erasure of the cultural and religious identity, primarily of Muslims and Christians of Palestine, is taking place, through the demolition, takeover or disabling of the use of religious buildings and historical sites, as well as land and cultivated areas, which should be common, universal and protected civilizational heritage,” the National Museum of BiH said in a statement.
