A holocaust by any other name is what it is
Santa Cruz Sentinel ^ | July 26, 2025 | Stephen Kessler

Posted on 07/26/2025 2:47:18 PM PDT by artichokegrower

There is no shortage of moral horrors plaguing the planet — in Ukraine, in Sudan, in Haiti, in El Salvador, in Florida’s Alligator Auschwitz — but nothing compares with what Israel is inflicting on the people of the Gaza Strip. However barbaric the Hamas atrocities of Oct. 7, 2023, nothing justifies the systematic starvation of an entire population in the name of trying to kill terrorists. It pains me to write this, not just because I am Jewish and ashamed of a state that calls itself Jewish and thereby implicates every Jew, even if unjustly, but as a human being aware of the suffering of others and helpless to do anything about it.

If he walked into Gaza they would cut his head off.

Euphemisms. Wordsmiths. The Japanese Americans were put in internment camps.
Those with an agenda called them concentration camps. The Nazis killed in their concentration camps while the Americans were interred. Use whatever phrase suits you.

Speaking of systematic, I wonder how the author feels about the US 8th Air Force‘s systematic bombing of German infrastructure during WW2.

🤔

With all the military advantages Israel holds in Gaza, if genocide was their intention then it would have been all over long ago.

So what about the Bombing of Dresden and the a-bombs over Hiroshima and Nagasaki?

Ok so this writer admits to being a Joo. That’s fine. Why don’t you tell us what you REALLY think.

I’m talkin’ bout’ the time those 1200 pagers went off when the folks carrying them were in bed with folks like you.

I do believe we picked the right horse in this race.

I invite Stephen to visit Gaza personally. Shout out that he’s a Jew.

See how long he lives.

Coincidence? I am watching on YouTube “How Prisoners Executed Nazi Guards After the Liberation of the Camps.” I have no empathy for instigators of evil, whether in concentration camps or Hamas in Gaza.

Why do Jews hate themselves so much


My theory is that they want to ingratiate themselves with their Leftist “friends” (who hate them, but still want their money and help).

Same reason Americans hate themselves so much.

British hate themselves so much.

Christians hate themselves so much.

Because they have been taught unless they are perfect in every single word or deed even when fighting for their very survival they are worthless.

In a couple of weeks you will see the same thing as people on FR wail and whine and moan about the dropping of two Atomic Bombs on Japan, ending the 70 year blood soaked campaign of terror and murder by the Empire of Japan.

They will tear at their hair and screech to the heavens about the "poor Japanese". They will never bring up the close to 20 million civilians that the Japanese murdered over that time. Why in one of those Japanese cities there probably was a little girl holding a puppy with a boo-boo on it's wittle paw. How could we kill her?

Yeah.

Don't care.

These idiots should be slapped repeatedly until they return to reality.

And I have lot of pictures of Japanese atrocities from human experiments to head chopping contests locked and loaded to slap them with.

That is how you deal with these sheltered little darlings.

You pull out the muck that they ignore from the bad guys and shove their nose in it.

In the case of this guy, Hamas baked babies. Your "civilians" are supporting and supplying them.

So, yeah.

Don't care.

OFFS! Mr Kessler needs to relax and have a drink. If he really believes what he’s writing he better get to Gaza tout suite and protect this brave Pallie Allies. Problem is they’ll probably butcher him….

Truth is, all he has to do is walk down any street in the US named MLK,Jr. BLVD. and he'll get the same treatment. Why travel all that way?
