24. Why not post the pertinent parts of the article instead of hyperventilating over falsehoods?

Note, incidentally, I say “concentration camp” and not “death camp.” I am not comparing Gaza to Auschwitz-Birkenau, but one cannot help but liken the conditions today in Gaza to the sorts of conditions once faced by Japanese-Americans during World War II, or the Boers in South Africa during the Anglo-Boer War, or the black South Africans years later in such besieged townships as Soweto, or for that matter Jews and gays and gypsies at Dachau and Theresienstadt in the years before the Nazis themselves settled on their Final Solution.


As is usual, some just have to make false claims, shira, by omission.




Someday, you'll learn.
I encourage everyone to heed the wisdom of this article oberliner Oct 2015 #1
Yet, sadly, we see both such comparisons being made way too frequently, even here at DU. R. Daneel Olivaw Oct 2015 #2

Great You found a troll from 2013: banned by skinner. R. Daneel Olivaw Oct 2015 #7
Here's a more recent example from folks still posting here oberliner Oct 2015 #8
Oh, shame ober, why not pist my followup instead of cherry picking... R. Daneel Olivaw Oct 2015 #10
Posted here, from Mondoweiss: "Gaza is a concentration camp..." shira Oct 2015 #20
Why not post the pertinent parts of the article instead of hyperventilating over falsehoods? R. Daneel Olivaw Oct 2015 #24
What a joke of a response. That article was straight up trash.... shira Oct 2015 #26
What a clever, clever comeback full of vigor and verse! R. Daneel Olivaw Oct 2015 #28
Another one: "More voices describe Gaza slaughter as a ‘genocide’..." shira Oct 2015 #21
And again, you run from the pertinent parts of the article that I addressed. R. Daneel Olivaw Oct 2015 #25
But you likened the Gaza situation to a final solution. n/t shira Oct 2015 #27
Once again, since you don't want to play fair, but play the victim. I was paraphrasing Naomi Wolf. R. Daneel Olivaw Oct 2015 #29
Naomi Wolf didn't claim "Final Solution". But you did. n/t shira Oct 2015 #30
She did write holocaust: which was the final solution, dear. As I said I was paraphrasing. R. Daneel Olivaw Oct 2015 #31
Now you're denying what you wrote & implied. Classic. n/t shira Oct 2015 #32
What I wrote is for everybody to read. But please stop with the dubious claims. R. Daneel Olivaw Oct 2015 #33
actually if you follow the thread it was not the poster you call out here that threw that example in azurnoir Oct 2015 #12
I didn't have to bring up the Nazis or Germany. He did that all by himself... shira Oct 2015 #18
I think perhaps you need to read your own links more closely azurnoir Oct 2015 #34
Hasbara central must really be jonesing to paint me as a anti-Semite. R. Daneel Olivaw Oct 2015 #19
But the best part is that the ober apparently agreed... R. Daneel Olivaw Oct 2015 #23
There was also this... R. Daneel Olivaw Oct 2015 #22
This from the comments section: TubbersUK Oct 2015 #3
Okay, so how can people describe what Hamas and the PA are doing.... shira Oct 2015 #6
Where did Netanyahu call Palestinians Nazis? The Mufti sure, but Palestinians in general? n/t shira Oct 2015 #5
The Mufti was definitely pro-Nazi oberliner Oct 2015 #9
Bibi has the whole world talking about the Mufti's Nazi ties... shira Oct 2015 #11
and that IMO was Bibi'shis true purpose in making the comment - incitement against Palestinians azurnoir Oct 2015 #13
His entire existence as PM of Israel is incitement against Palestinians oberliner Oct 2015 #14
yes but this one was unique as Bibi was willing to look the fool for a moment hoping to reignite azurnoir Oct 2015 #15
Seems Bibi's connecting Palestinian LEADERSHIP to the Mufti... shira Oct 2015 #16
why yes in fact they have his picture surronded by lighted candles which they pray to 3 times a day azurnoir Oct 2015 #17
