Israel wrestles with Nazi insults - GoFuckYourself.com

OK, let's get ready for the " anti-semite" comments....

Ouuupssss ... remark came from a Jew... in Israel...A cabinet minister... Justice on top of it!

Quote:

Israeli Justice Minister Yosef "Tommy" Lapid stunned Cabinet colleagues on Sunday by saying a picture of an elderly Palestinian woman searching through rubble reminded him of his grandmother.
Mr Lapid is a Holocaust survivor.

His grandmother was not. She died in Auschwitz.

In an interview with Israel Defence Forces radio, Mr Lapid said he was "talking about an old woman crouching on all fours, searching for her medicines in the ruins of her house... she made me think of my grandmother".

Prime Minister Ariel Sharon reprimanded Mr Lapid for comparing a Palestinian to a victim of the Nazis, calling the remarks "unacceptable and intolerable".

And Health Minister Danny Naveh of Mr Sharon's right-wing Likud party said Mr Lapid "can argue about demolishing houses... but you can't draw these kinds of analogies".

But while the remark shocked some Israeli politicians, it is actually fairly mild compared to some of the Holocaust-related insults that have been hurled across the Israeli political spectrum in the last decade.

and it goes on :

"Prime Minister Ariel Sharon reprimanded Mr Lapid for comparing a Palestinian to a victim of the Nazis, calling the remarks "unacceptable and intolerable".

Of course he did. Doesn't make it any less true.

Jews have clearly learnt absolutely nothing from the Holocaust.

Shameful.

The Israelis are no better than the Nazis. Any group in modern times denying a nation the right of self-determination is guilty of crimes against all of humanity.

So, according to your logic, you are saying if the US Civil War occurred today, Abraham Lincoln will be charged with War Crimes?

Palistinian .orgs do not want Israel to exist...and much of the Arab world feels the same way.

It is apparent that you are wrong...but that is not unusual for you.
