Reply #9: There are valid comparisons between Israel and the Nazis...up to a point

[IndianaGreen]

and a big point it is: Kristallnacht!

Kristallnacht marks the beginning of the Holocaust, which for those that have forgotten, was the systematic extermination of Jews from Germany and Europe.

Prior to Kristallnacht, indeed prior to Hitler coming to power, there were many acts of violence by the nazis against Jews and other groups they viewed as undesirables. There were also de jure acts by the German authorities which denied and/or restricted human rights of Jews and others.
