Does Michelle Bachmann represent all of America? Does Rob Ford represent all of Canada? Just because a few legislators and a handful of nutjobs act like that doesn't mean it represents the whole country.

Like I said, if Israel REALLY wanted them all dead, they could do it in a matter of days. No one would be able to stop them either because they have nuclear weapons.

Also, educate yourself about this policy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roof_knocking

Does that sound like a country that wants to commit genocide? Remember this: Israel uses weapons to protect its civilians. Palestinians uses civilians to protect weapons.


Just listen to the few resident Israelis here try to justify the killing of Palestinians to realize it's a pretty common thought process, I'm sure it's a big enough chunk of their population that wants all of Gaza and under their control and all of the people there dead or shipped off to other Arab nations....

Walls are going up, the Palestinians are being rounded up with walls into smaller and smaller Ghettos, subject to invasion at any point...their waters are blockaded, houses demolished all in the name of Israeli "national security", they are starved, bombed, terrorized and denied basic human rights and freedoms

Sounds awfully familiar to a nation in World War 2 that did the same things to the very jews that now do this upon others ( we never seem to learn from our ancestors ).....

The only real difference is there aren't any death machines or concentration camps.....

The holocaust didn't start with gas chambers, shootings and burnings...

It started with rhetoric blaming them for the problems of Germany ..... then came the laws limiting their freedoms, then the roundups, the ghettos and the walls....


This type of nonsense should never be tolerated by society....the amount of anti Arab sentiment in the world causes me to wonder when the xenophobes will make their move....

it also happened in the US with the Japanese at the same time. It's happened numerous times, but you just jumped straight to the holocaust.

Wait are you trying to justify what the us did to intern Japanese citizens and sell off their belongings and brand them as traitors without cause ?

Or is your argument that because the us didn't kill them off that Israel gets a pass ? Because Israel has already murdered tens of thousands of them...

It's scary to think they'll be given guns and put in front of Arab children ...

I'm not really sure where you got that from. The "beginnings of the holocaust" have played out numerous times and the majority of them have not turned into ethnic cleansing.

All I was doing was pointing out that there are many better comparisons to make but you jumped straight to the holocaust.

No, he is accusing you of being historically narrow-minded with your analogies.

She represents a lot of people north of Santara at least.
