41. Actually, I'm not sure the Palestinian terrotories are 'giant

concentration camps,' at least in the sense those words are used for the pre-Wannsee German phenomena of the same name. Dachau, for example, was administered and ruthlessly policed by members of the Nazi German security apparatus, whereas the PTs have at least the rudiments of self-governance in the form of security services, elections and so on.

That is not to diminish by one iota the massive suffering and degradation that the Palestinian people suffer on a daily basis, merely to suggest that there may be a better metaphor for the PTs than 'concentration camp.' 'Apartheid,' for example, might serve as a better metaphor, ironic since concentration camps got their start back during the Boer Wars in South Africa.
