In 1933, Hitler and the German Zionist Federation signed the Haavara Agreement, which oversaw the gradual transfer of German Jews to Palestine.

I seem to remember in Losurdo’s Stalin book, that this event is what led to the Grand Mufti reaching out to Hitler and trying to engage with him. It’s critical to point out that this happened only after the Haavara Agreement; because that correctly frames it as a defensive maneuver by the Grand Mufti who was only concerned with more settlers showing up in Palestine (for those who may not know, it’s a popular hasbara talking point to suggest that the Grand Mufti was “allied” with Hitler and the Nazis. This serves to imply that the Palestinians are in some way responsible for the Holocaust and thus it’s justified to steal their land).

That sounds like a panic attack. I get them, but in a different contexts from protests. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy has helped me. You don’t have to pay for a therapist, plenty of resources online. I try and pay attention to what I am feeling. Just observe it without judging it/myself. Like, ok I am now feeling short of breath. So I’m just “observing” my breathing. It helps me keep calm and not to spiral towards more panic.
