The vice president of the Delegation of Argentine Israeli Associations (DAIA), Sergio Pikholtz, He presented his irrevocable resignation from office following his statements generated strong repudiation. It was following the message he published on his social networks, in which he said that “there are no innocent civilians in Gaza” and in which he even warned that “no mercy” should be shown even to minors who live in said conflict zone. warlike
“As we tirelessly repeat, there are no innocent civilians in Gaza, perhaps only children under four years old. No mercy for the murderers of Jews. Overcome”, posted on his X account (ex Twitter).
“I announce that I have decided to irrevocably resign from my status as second vice president of the DAIA. The cause of the Jewish people, the return of the hostages and the right of the State of Israel to defend itself from aggression are just causes. Am Israel Jai. Shabbat shalom. End,” Pikholtz posted.

PROFILE He accessed the official statement from the DAIA in which, before his resignation, they had made official the request for leave of his vice president following his statements. “Given the unfortunate expressions of our 2nd vice president, Sergio Pikholtz, the DAIA has requested its license. The entity is always firm with any fact or person in Argentine society that is expressed incorrectly, even within the community itself and this is an example for everyone. The measures to be taken will be evaluated next Monday within the framework of the Board of Directors session,” they reported.
The truth is that as this media learned, the message generated a strong controversy not only on the networks but also inside the Jewish community and DAIA itself. Meanwhile, many users came out to ask for his resignation.
The publication was on his account for almost a day, but due to the wave of criticism he received, Pikholtz decided to delete the post, although his position had already gone viral. One of the great criticisms leveled once morest him is that his phrase discredits Israel’s campaigns once morest Hamas terrorism.
The DAIA questioned the statements of D’Elía and Peñafort
In recent weeks, the DAIA was the target of other controversies such as its statements once morest the Peronist leaders Luis D’Elía and Graciana Peñafort.
The DAIA accused Roger Waters of “promoting hate speech” and asked to suspend the shows in Argentina
“The leader’s statement Luis D’Elia suggesting, in a television interview and in the face of the passivity of those who were in the studio, that the Decree of Necessity and Urgency presented last week by the president Javier Miley is inspired by the Andinia Plan, it is an inadmissible anti-Semitic expression,” they said in an official statement.
“At the same time, the DAIA rejects the message published by the lawyer Graciana Penafort on a social network trivializing the Shoah and once once more asks the ruling class of our country to avoid continuing to use the systematic persecution and annihilation of six million Jews by the Nazis in the public and political debate that occurs in democracy,” they added.
