Popular Post Lite Beer Posted August 24, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted August 24, 2014 Holocaust survivors condemn Israel's Gaza 'genocide'More than 300 Jewish survivors of the Holocaust and descendants of survivors have issued a public statement condemning Israel's "genocide" of the Palestinian people in Gaza.The statement was released by the International Jewish Anti-Zionist Network and was placed as an advertisement in the New York Times.It calls for the blockade of Gaza to be lifted and Israel to be boycotted.The signatories expressed alarm at the "colonization of historic Palestine".It condemns the "racist dehumanisation of Palestinians in Israeli society, which has reached fever pitch".The statement was released as a response to an advertisement criticising Hamas written by Nobel prize-winning author Elie Wiesel and published in many newspapers"As Jewish survivors and descendants of survivors and victims of the Nazi genocide we unequivocally condemn the massacre of Palestinians in Gaza and the ongoing occupation and colonization of historic Palestine," the statement says.

Popular Post Ulysses G. Posted August 24, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted August 24, 2014 (edited) Nobel prize-winning author Elie Wiesel is a great man. Jews rejected child sacrifice 3,500 years ago. Now it's Hamas' turn. In my own lifetime, I have seen Jewish children thrown into the fire. And now I have seen Muslim children used as human shields, in both cases, by worshippers of death cults indistinguishable from that of the Molochites.What we are suffering through today is not a battle of Jew versus Arab or Israeli versus Palestinian. Rather, it is a battle between those who celebrate life and those who champion death. It is a battle of civilization versus barbarism. http://www.algemeiner.com/2014/08/01/elie-wiesel-condemns-hamas-for-using-children-as-human-shields-calls-on-gazans-to-reject-hamass-child-sacrifice/ The name "Jewish 'Anti-Zionist' Network" speaks for itself - a bunch of loons.

Popular Post CBR250 Posted August 24, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted August 24, 2014 Good to see Jewish people coming out in opposition to the bloodthirsty Netanyahu regime. Follows on from the reports of the 50 Israelis a few weeks ago who refused to participate in the unjust and inhumane invasion of Gaza. Incidents such as these are great ammunition for undermining the anti-semitism that Israel's warmongering is feeding. I hope these signatories do not suffer the same fate as do "peaceniks" in Israel, with the abuse and threats to which they are regularly subjected. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ABCer Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 I would like to put a few questions to these 300 survivors: 1) How did you survive? 2) How did you fight the extermination? 3) Do you believe in self-defence? 4) How did you turn up in Israel? 5) Which country did you or your parents came from? 6) Which country are you going to live in after Israel stops fighting? 7) How will you survive again? 8) How will you fight the extermination again? 9) Do you prefer extermination or self-defence? To cut through this crap if any man of any religion believes that God made us in His image - - how do you know he was working in a Realistic manner?

"...an act that was even condemned by the Palestinian center for human right and Amnesty international..." How can there be not one word of condemnation if the two organizations you cited condemned it? Certainly people are allowed to criticize the treatment of Palestinians without commenting on every other event that has occurred in the past few hundred years. Condemning Israel for something it's doing doesn't imply that Hamas is an angelic & benevolent organization.There's no shortage of blame to go around, but justifying unacceptable behavior by claiming "they started it" is a tactic used by children to expiate themselves and to shift blame. The relentless marginalization of the Palestinian people, the destruction of their homes, and the Bantustan-ization of land they are "allowed" to occupy is as much of a provocation as bombs and rockets of Hamas and those actions of Israel have been condemned repeatedly by international organizations even though that isn't mentioned every time something new happens.

Nonsense. Article 51 of the UN Charter plainly recognizes “the inherent right of individual or collective self-defence, if an armed attack occurs against a Member of the United Nations” by ANYONE and that includes a terrorist organization - Hamas - shooting thousands of rockets at civilians. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope these signatories do not suffer the same fate as do "peaceniks" in Israel, with the abuse and threats to which they are regularly subjected. Jews have no more moral authority than I do, or you. Whether genocide survivors or generation X'ers, their position only has legitimacy insofar as it's valid. I grant to none, because of their personal or collective history, exclusive claim to be arbiters of right and wrong. Exceptions to any rule deserve to be considered in context. Because they posses the title "Jew" their indicting other Jews reveals independent thinking, but not necessarily meaningful points or truth. It's correct: Ba'alists stopped child sacrifice in the valley of the children of hinnom long ago. The current contrast is not subtle- it's striking. Hamas and local Arabs continue policies and impulses that indoctrinate the sacrifice of others, and children. How utterly appalling any human can rationalize or equivocate this point. The selective ethical relativity says volumes about the Jews, or others, who ignore this point in pursuit of their arguments sterilizing Hamas slaughter of Jews, their citizens, children, society... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we do believe that Palestine has a right to a homeland and it should be, at the very least, the lands they owned after the 1947 giveaway by GB and The UN. Past history all shows us the Israel is a terrorist nation. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it was mentioned here before, being a Jew doesn't automatically make your opinion better or stronger than others, there are many Jews, both living in Israel and outside of Israel who doesn't see eye to eye with the Government of Israel, and one or two extreme ultra orthodox group are practically calling to the abolishment of Zionism and the state of Israel and actually siding with the PLO and their ilk, acting like a fifth column inside of Israel, and guess what, no one throw them in jail or execute them...unlike the barbarian Hamas,,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akatheriddler Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 I have no time for Hamas apologists or justifiers, nor those who criticise Israel for doing what they must to keep these mad Muslim fundamentalists at bay. Typical of BBC to publish that story , and ignore the 17 summary public executions of 'suspected collaborators'. Isis , Hamas , Boko Harem , Hezbollah .. they are all mad muslim fundamentalists , who want to kill the infidel , and even each other if they believe a slightly different version of Islam. Its all they care about. World domination. The world should be thankng Israel forstanding up to these murdering savages 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
