It's ironic that Israel's bullying and displacing of the Palestinians is partially due to the same justifications that the Nazis used to invade their neighbors-
Yeah, exactly!

What I've been saying in a probably ham fisted way throughout. The whole dreadfulness of the Holocaust is always usually reflected upon as the most atrocious moment of history never to be repeated.

Seems they have this inverted view and consider it as some go-ahead and do whatever they want. If they really consider it al all.

Most nations, when they have sufficient power, 'do whatever they want' with an air of impunity.

In the case of Israel, unfortunately, there's too many people who don't really give a rat's ass about the illegality and immorality of their expansionism. In fact, they SUPPORT it fully. I'm talking about the evangelical and fundamentalist lot who believe all the Jews must return to Israel so that Jesus's return can happen.

Incredible that despite the fact some Palestinians are Xtians, the Xtians in America back Israel fully. Not much loyalty to their own there. Not that I believe that they really think of Israel as their 'friend'... it's just a prophetic mechanism to those whackjobs. According to their bizarre 'rapture' ethic, the Jews are 'God's chosen people', but if they don't convert to Xtianity when Jesus returns, they'll be slain in their tracks by 'the prince of peace'!!!
