Marie 🇸🇪The difference between Gaza & Auschwitz is that the world still has an opportunity to stop the ethnic cleansing in Gaza.
Bl4ckst4r@smlx4 no, like almost any comparison with auschwitz it’s just antisemitic to do this one, but why:
Auschwitz whole purpose became the annihilation of human (mostly yewish) life. Gaza is a war zone in which the blockade of food is heavily restricted by the IDF which leads to malnutrition of its inhabitants (in their military logic they try to establish their own non UN food distribution systems since UNRWA is embedded with Hamas and since they steal the aid and sell it to the gazan population etc.. It is an unrealistic and inhumane logic by the IDF, if you ask me, but as well it is the tactic of hamas to produce human suffering among the gazans to use their suffering as weapon against Israel).
There are many historic examples of populations on the brink of starvation because of war (that’s why war is a crime against humanity in itself). The Yemeni civil war comes to mind as a recent example (in which one side backed by the Saudis as well were strongly militarily equipped by the west). But than we couldn’t alter the past of Jewish suffering and its significance in todays world couldn’t we?
Huntn00@Bl4ckst4r @smlx4 What’s going on in Gaza is getting rid of the troublesome Palestinians which by IDF definition is all Palestinians. There is a clear comparison between this and what the Jews’ experienced in WWII, is not fair to the Palestinians, and lets the IDF off the hook for the genocide claim. Was this your intent? The worst aspect of this is when the Jewish descendants of World War II Holocaust victims became the monsters that previously persecuted them.
@Huntn00 @Bl4ckst4r What happened at Auschwitz must never be forgotten or explained away. Israel’s goal is to destroy as many civilians as possible, with a focus on children, according to countless Israelis who’s spoken freely without the slightest shame or remorse. As long as the US & other nations turn a blind eye, Netanyahu & his assassins in the cabinet will get away with the genocide that’s taking place.
@Huntn00 @Bl4ckst4r The International Court of Justice in The Hague has also been involved, which has led to Netanyahu now facing potential legal consequences.
As a result, several countries have imposed travel bans on Netanyahu & other senior Israeli officials. They could be denied entry to countries that have expressed strong criticism of Israel’s actions in Gaza.
Travel & trade restrictions have also been discussed in various international forums.

Noortje Van Leeuwen@smlx4 @Huntn00 @Bl4ckst4r it just pisses me off the asshole fucking goes for the buzziest of fucking buzzwords not even 3 sentences in.
"Antisemitism" is not a word...its a weapon, a weapon to silence people that are calling out atrocities...
@Noortjevee @smlx4 @Huntn00 sadly it isn't just a word, but a ideology that has killed millions and threatens millions to be killed and like almost all "-isms" in christian and muslim influenced societies it is sadly part of our collective unconscious (like racism and sexism) and needs activ reflection to get rid of.
But yes, as well the accusation of antisemitism has been utilised to turn down valid criticism against Israel, which is in itself antisemitic (meaning its mere utilisation).
