Israel Is Not Nazi Germany



Anthony Bellchambers

To condemn Israel for acting like Nazi Germany, is patently a false analogy. During the Holocaust of WW2, the Nazis killed many millions of Jews and other minority groups, (on a horrific industrial scale), throughout the whole of Europe.

Israel, by comparison, has killed thousands of civilians, primarily in Gaza, Egypt, Lebanon and the Occupied Territories.

The majority being indigenous Arab civilians, a substantial proportion of whom were children under the age of sixteen, particularly in Gaza.

Nevertheless, the ethnic cleansing of the Occupied Territories of their indigenous Arab population is a crime against humanity. And at the heart of the conflict is the Holy City of Jerusalem – probably the most violent city on earth for each succeeding generation since 1967. Hatred lies close to the surface in every mosque and synagogue. It is palpable. Each killing, by either side, being a microcosm of the animosity that exists now everywhere in the former (peaceful) land of Palestine.

It is the manifest loathing of an occupied ethnic population against a brutal military occupier and its political ideology. A regime that has usurped the Palestinian right to Jerusalem and left the Palestinian people to exist as a dispossessed minority in their own land under the dominance and control of an immigrant occupier. Anger simmers and smoulders at the injustice and immorality of an illegal occupation that although condemned by the United Nations General Assembly, is still (astonishingly) openly supported by a US Congress and a British Conservative government.

This is the blatant violation of international law by a US-supported government headed by Donald J Trump and family, together with the British Conservative Friends of Israel lobby of which the Theresa May cabinet are members.

It is, of course, a national tragedy with international repercussions, not least as to why the US and British governments continue to support, and trade with, an illegal occupier of land that has dispossessed an entire indigenous people in violation of UN Resolution 2334 that critically condemns such colonial expansion and ethnic violence.

An occupier that is also an undeclared nuclear weapons state with up to 400 nuclear warheads, all uninspected and unknown to the IAEA. A state which steadfastly refuses to be a party to a nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty (NPT) that has been signed and ratified by virtually every other nation state in the world.

Political Zionism as practised by Netanyau’s Likud party, is an affront to humanity, democracy, decency and international law.

EDITORIAL: Be Careful Italy

Ne News 2 June 2018 As you may be aware, there was a constitutional crisis in Italy following the decision to make a Eurosceptic Italian Finance Minister, which resulted in the Italian President to dissolve the government. Just a couple of days ago, this was resolved. However, it is worth noting that one of the parties in this coalition is the far-right wing Northern League, as well as the Five Star Movement. However, the people of Italy must be careful, especially in regards to the Northern League, as they may be the party to destroy Italy’s sovereignty and hand it over to the unelected and unaccountable European Union, which is increasingly becoming a fascist police state. That’s right, despite denying it and claiming that they are Eurosceptics, the Northern League may actually be the most pro-European Union party in the Italian Government. Throughout the world (and in particular the Western World), we are seeing the rise of far-right wing parties who claim ...

The French “Patriot Act”: Why is France Extending Its State of Emergency? From Pseudo-Democracy to Dictatorship

Guillaume Kress Global Research 19 February 2016 President Francois Hollande, whose legitimacy stems from nothing but a fraudulent multiparty electoral system , has repeatedly abused his authority  since taking office in 2012 by waging illegal wars in foreign countries (i.e., Mali, Syria) without consulting his electors. [1] He  recently failed to confer with them when his Socialist government responded to last year’s terrorist attacks in Paris by adopting Orwellian domestic policies – policies that have allowed the Hollande administration to spy on citizens , block websites containing “terrorist related content” , strip convicted “terrorists” of French citizenship , and criminalize activism against Israeli occupation .[2] These policies prevent the spread of information which may expose the government’s criminal activities. We should note, here, that the state of emergency greatly facilitates political corruption. [3] To put it briefly, the state of...

Afghanistan, Iraq. Hollywood’s Complicity: How Soon the Suckers Forget!

Philip A. Farruggio Global Research 12 May 2018 Featured image: George W. Bush with Ellen Degeneres, backstage after the former President appeared on “Ellen” and was hailed by her as a good friend (Source: @theellenshow/Instagram) How many lies and how many innocent lives have been sent out into the ethers by men like Junior Bush and his Bush/Cheney Cabal? Too many is the answer. Yet, as with the case with the Irish singing star (and humanitarian) Bono, Junior Bush has been ‘Born Again Philanthropist’. Well, good for him, but… that should not and DOES not absolve him from his war crimes. Screenshot AVC News, May 27, 2017 The real shame of all of this is just how short a memory do Ms. Ellen Degeneres and Mr. Bono have? I mean, come on you two  Media stars , have you both forgotten what transpired beginning in October of 2001? Does this writer need to once again review the  horrific  damage we,  and  our NATO led coal...
