See now I just saw Erdogan of Turkey called Israel more barbaric than the Nazis, this is the same kind of silly rhetoric they deal with all the time. I hardly doubt 200 Palestinians killed is comparable to the tens of millions and destruction of Europe the Nazis brought. It is cheap and trivializes things, maybe we should talk about all the thousands of Kurds killed by Turkey for wanting their independence or the Armenian genocide.
Yes it is silly rhetoric but it is also silly rhetoric to blame The republic of Turkey for the deeds of the Ottoman Empire.
That would be like blaming the Federal republic of Germany for the deeds of Nazi Germany or blaming the Russian Federation for the deeds of Stalinist Soviet Republic.
you cant blame modern people who weren't even born for the deeds of stupid people that came before them.
but you can blame the current governments in Gaza and Isreal for their war crimes which are still ongoing.
the apartheid and military occupation of the Palestinian people and land for 50 years is an ongoing crime against humanity.
The Palestinains have not been firing rockets at Isreal constantly for 50 years.. it happens only every few years..
the people in the west bank are not firing rockets at Isreal yet they still live under constant oppression.
yes Isreal does have a right to defend itself.. but it does not have the right to brutally oppress another nation for 50 years. nobody has that right.
this is a very detailed website written by a group of Jewish (and other nationalities) researchers. explaining what Zionism really is and just how dangerous it is.
not every Jewish person buys into the propaganda of the Isreali government and not every Jewish person supports the ongoing colonialism.
http://whathappenedbeforethat.net/zionism/beginningshttp://whathappenedbeforethat.net/zionism/colonialismIsrealis (and the wider Jewish community) are not united in their support for this war.. and Palestinians are not united in their support for armed resistance and firing rockets into Isreal.
don't believe the hype and please don't blame the people for the actions of a stupid reckless few fundamentalists on both sides.
