Israel is not only fighting Hamas but a global “eighth front” [Syria, Lebanon, Yemen, Gaza, Iran, Iraq, etc.] war—framing pro-Palestinian demonstrations as a civilizational threat to “free societies” across the world.
Netanyahu said protests in Western capitals are “celebrating murderers, rapists, baby burners, hostage takers.” He claimed Israeli, American, British, Canadian, and French flags are being burned at these protests [they aren’t], and are evidence of a broader attack on “Western civilization.”
Netanyahu claimed that Hamas’s October 7 assault was an attempt to “recreate the Holocaust”…
He claimed that…world leaders…are “cowed” by pro-Palestinian movements and are trying to “corral the victim,” while actually enabling “barbarians” and weakening free societies’ ability to defend themselves.
“You dehumanize a group of people in human society and you prepare them for the kill, for the butchery. That is always the case. You always demonize before you annihilate.
Had they had their way, they would have butchered every man, woman and child in this state, and every Jew around the world. They openly say that.
“We take thousands of prisoners, sort them out into civilians and combatants, and we photograph them… The first thing you do is you tell them, ‘Take your shirt off. We want to see that there is no suicide vest.’… and you don’t see one, not one emaciated from the beginning of the war to the present,” he said.
“In fact, you see quite the opposite because you don’t get that much exercise, certainly not in tunnels, but you get food.”
Oh wow, the Holocaust must have been insignificant. What does everyone go on about that shit again?
I remember when Herzlians insisted that the Shoah was unique and incomparable to any other massacre in history. Now their victim complex is so overwhelming that they had to make an exhibit likening the October 7 incident to the Shoah.
For me, though, the best proof that Herzlians are basically just concern trolls when it comes to the Shoah is that almost none of them have anything to say about how the White Armies and their allies annihilated 115,000 Jews from 1917–1921. That was probably the biggest loss of Jewish life until the Shoah yet I hardly ever see anybody mention it. A few days ago I asked three Jewish adults if they had ever heard of Symon Petliura and none of them had any clue whom the fuck I was talking about. Shouldn’t it be someone’s job to educate them on this history?
