We conservatives generally believe in accountability, strength and power. This is why support among conservatives for something like the BLM movement is approximately 0%.

As police body cams have proven, there is by and large not even the slightest bit of racism toward them. When encounters turn fatal, it is the criminals’ fault—and the police do us all a great service by protecting us from the worst members of society.

To me, it is just as clear that Hamas is the aggressor in the Middle East. The October 7 attack was utterly subhuman degeneracy and evil. Israel rightfully said that they cannot allow that to happen again and are totally justified in hitting back hard in the war that Hamas started. Oh, you think they’re being too mean now? Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time!

The most astonishing thing is seeing Palestinians weeping about a “genocide” now. Many of them are the same people who were cheering utter barbarism against Israelis on October 7. Even in the US, many Palestinian supporters were fired from their jobs for cheering the ghastly, brutal and indefensible October 7 attack. (This was so indefensible that “cancel culture” had to be applied to the left for the very first time.) And now they’re complaining that Israel is just a bunch of big, bad meanies and is responding too harshly? Give me an effing break!

It’s so clear that Israel are the good guys and Hamas are the bad guys. I’m shocked that this is not a universally-held position among conservatives, just as is opposition to BLM. To be clear, the 30-40% of conservatives do not support Hamas; they just dislike Israel too (for reasons they can never clearly articulate).

Do you think those three individuals speak for all Jews or Holocaust survivors?

The parallels of Gaza and the Warsaw ghetto are quite uncanny. This article was just published, but numerous people have long been making the comparison in regards to the forced starvation:

The weaponisation of food echoes the horrors of the Jewish ghettos, as Palestinians are pushed beyond the limits of human endurance.

“That we sentence 1.2 million Jews to die of hunger should be noted only marginally,” Hans Frank, the governor of occupied Poland, wrote in a diary entry.

If the GHF achieves its goals, the average Palestinian in Gaza, by design, will receive fewer than 1,000 calories a day, when those receiving no food at all are taken into account.

This is very close to what Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto were receiving.

Eighty years ago, a group of Jewish doctors in the Warsaw Ghetto documented the effects of hunger on the human body. This is exactly what doctors in Gaza are saying today.

They treat toddlers who haven’t eaten in days. They watch infants die with sunken eyes and protruding ribs. They speak to the world, but the world does not listen.

Hmm. Similar

But in Israel most of the population actively supports the murder of Gaza

While many in Germany supported nazis it was not the majority like it is in Israel

Israel citizens could stop this but they agree with the murders

That's true. There was a recent poll showing more than 80% of Israelis support ethnic cleansing and a majority support genocide. No one in Israel is ignorant of the situation in Gaza. In contrast, the activities in Germany were more hidden from the general public and had far less support.

That's where you are crossing the line. Germans knew a lot more of what was going on than you are claiming. What The Government of Israel is doing is very bad, a deliberate gross violation of International Law, and generally evil. But despite saying that it is still a notch or two better than what the Nazis did.

No. You're being ridiculous.

Unless the work camps, harvesting of skin for use as leather, and gas chambers starts there will always be a clear winner of the victim Olympics. Minimizing the Holocaust in order to boost your argument is a bad look.

LOL that is some whitewashing the Holocaust. You are scum.

The difference, you idiots, between the Warsaw ghetto and Gaza is that Gaza is run by a genocidal government who started the war. It is inhabited by Palestinians who have declined multiple deals for a two state solution throughout the years.

Has Israel committed war crimes? Yes. Is Netanyahu a right wing maniac? Yes. Is Israel on a terrible political path right now? Yes. But Hamas is 1000x worse and would slaughter every last Israeli if they had the means. Which is why this is the situation in the first place. Plenty of Arabs live in Israel as full citizens. They are not being persecuted for their ethnicity. They are at war because their government is genocidal, and they are losing.

I don’t support what Israel is doing in Gaza or the West Bank, but anti semitic lunatics like yourself who are whitewashing the Holocaust to fit your own narrative make me much less sympathetic towards Palestinians.

Lastly, this site is a such an anti semitic hole. Is there any mention of the Egyptian terrorist who threw a Molotov cocktail the other day at peaceful advocates to bring home the remaining hostages? No. Only pages and pages on Palestinian suffering which omits why October 7th and its aftermath occurred in the first place.
