Jewish Woman speaks out against the Holocaust against Israel

commentator | 19.06.2004 12:39

Six million Jewish people, including my father´s whole extended family in Poland, were killed in the holocaust against Jews in Europe. This is not the only holocaust in history. When the Israeli state was formed, many people felt those who had suffered so much were would now be safe in a homeland of their own. But the Jewish people were betrayed by those who had originally promised them a homeland.

The USA tried and still tries to appease the Palestinian arabs for the quite simple reason that arab governments sell oil and the US buys it. The USA ally of the oil rich arab states has always told Israel to hold back from full scale retaliation and effective self defence. Instead Israel has been forced to fight back with one arm tied behind its back. It has been forced to offer Palestinians concessions when no concessions are necessary.

A new holocaust has aflicted the Jewish people. The holocaust of the suicide bomber. Thousands and thousands of innocent defenceless men women and children have been horrically murdered, mutilated and maimed by fanatical Palestinian terrorists. The goal of most arab states and Palestinian terrorists has always been the complete destruction of Israel and the expulsion of all Jewish people from the Middle East. This is despite the fact that there has been a continuous Jewish presence in the Middle East region for 3,500 years. During the war of 1948-49 around 700,000 Jewish citizens of arab countries such were forcibly expelled from their homes. They were given refuge in the newly created state of Israel.

Every time there is an horrific terrorist attack on Israel the United States ally of the arab states instructs Israel to hold back and not overreact, just as it did when in 1991 Iraq fired scud missiles at neutral Israel in clear breach of international law.

We call on all the freedom people of the world to stand up for justice and stand up against relentless arab terrorism. Support Israel the only truely democratic state in the Middle East and the right of the Jewish people to live in peace and safetly.

Get rid of this shit or retitle it Zionist defends Israel.

Plenty of us can play the relatives lost in the holocaust game if we choose. It doesn't give us the right to justify a regime that is hell-bent on its own holocaust. Suicide-bombing may not be defensible but it is not equivalent to state terror

Check out the israelyouarenotalone link. The best bit is the pizza and coca cola for idf patrols link. You couldn't make it up. Caring US Zionists actually sponsor 'pizza and soda' deliveries to the troops!

sigh.

Indeed, the Second World War holocaust was not the only one in history, but what's going on now in Palestine & Israel is not one - to confuse the term is an insult to any of the peoples who've been killed through holocausts.

The commentator's post has a completely cock-eyed view of what was promised & what happened after the 2nd WW, never mind the insane view that the USA sides with the Palestinians - just check out your UN resolutions concerning Israel, and the use of the US veto. Then chuck in generalisations, pretend that Israel's 'retaliation' to suicide bombs etc is 'held back' rather than already illegal, disproportionate and murderous, and come out with the usual blah about "only democratic state" blah blah - hmm, Israel's laws and practice are not quite that, as I've seen over there.

How does this SHIT help security over there for all peoples.

Personal abuse directed at other posters is not welcome on this newswire. Take your flame-wars elsewhere please.

As for the article being hidden from the front page, it was because it's not news. IMC hides pro-zionist and anti-zionist rants alike, when they don't contain any news.

with luck, you'll read this again and be able to reply to me...

While I'm glad you hide non-news from the newswire, neither I nor x directed personal abuse at commentator, as you state.

I quote:
"Get rid of this shit or..."
"How does this SHIT help security over there for all peoples...."

Now that, and all other comments, are comments on the content, not the person/poster, so
"Personal abuse directed at other posters is not welcome on this newswire. Take your flame-wars elsewhere please"
is unfounded and unjust, unless you are changing the guidelines so that people can't express themselves through swearing....!???

Hoping for an answer, thanks.

No, I hid some other comments, which were abusive against you, "x", and the IMC admin who hid the article from the front page, as well as a response comment to them.

Comments on an article's content are fine, as you point out.
