These two things are in no way alike other than the fact death was involved.
They are far more alike than you care to understand.
Is that how you say "I can't explain it, because it's not true"?
Hamas officials should be held accountable for all war crimes committed, same as all Israeli officials. That said, there are many parallels between the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising and Gaza.
In the Shadow of the Holocaust by Masha Gessen, the situation in Gaza is compared to the Warsaw Ghettos. The comparison was also made by a Palestinian poet who was later killed by an Israeli airstrike. Adi Callai, an Israeli, has also written on the parallels in his article The Gaza Ghetto Uprising and expanded upon in his corresponding video
I stand corrected, thanks for shedding light on the subject for me. I hate all the innocents that this has harmed.
I'll have to watch the video later, but again thanks for actually taking the time for your sources.
No problem, I still feel like most people don't know the full extent of violence that has been going on in Israel/Palestine, so I find it important to share sources. I highly recommend the video, I did find it quite eye-opening about how this war came to be and what it's looked like for nearly the past year now.
They are/were both open air prisons where the people inside cannot freely travel, had their land, possessions, and livelihoods stripped. They have no rights, receive far less food and water than they need. The nature of such conditions is a powder keg for violent revolt.
You're describing Palistine, not Hamas. The article is about Hamas.
Yes they are Palestinians born of this 70 year old land grab and the conditions created by it.
So with your logic, the actions taken against the KKK should be seen as actions taken against America? They are terrorist, don't categorize them with the innocent people.
Just curious, why aren't they freedom fighters?
Ask yourself, do freedom fighters rape their victims? Do freedom fighters continue sexual assualt of corpses after death? Do freedom fighters take you g womens bodys and parade them around town?
There is much more, but the argument is moot.
