Attempted Genocide of 1.4 Million Palestinians
by Israel on a Par with Nazism

The feedback by Israelis and their Zionist sympathizers across the world that can be viewed on Haaretz and other Israeli news outlets online concerning the attempted genocide of 1.4 million Palestinians in Gaza proves to me that they are aware of this crime against humanity - and revel in it.

Starving your enemy is a legitimate strategy, some write while others have grown tired of reading about the starving people of Gaza. I have read dozens and dozens of comments along these lines since the blockade began - and even worse long before concerning the IDF killing children and other atrocities so commonly committed against the Palestinians.

Not only have Israelis stolen Palestinian land and property, they now seek an end to their lives by withholding food and basic medicines.

The whole world sympathized with the Jews regarding the wrongs committed against them during WW II - but even people like me who once believed in all things Jewish find Israeli political views regarding Arabs to be among the basest on the planet. Israel has a stone cold heart and practices sadism as if it were a matter of national pride.

Though there are wonderful exceptions to the rule such as Uri Avnery and others I met last year in a trip to Israel - on the whole the Zionist philosophy has demonstrated over and over again that it is on a par with Nazism.
