I can understand the jews being angry and bitter over the hard knock they received during WW2, but what they are doing is not the solution.

I'm a pesky Jew who would consider the Gaza on a similar level of inhumanity as the Holocaust. What code am I speaking in?

What Israel is doing in the name of my people and my religion makes me absolutely sick to my stomach. I condemn both sides in honor of my cousin who was killed by a suicide bomber years ago and my best friend's family who have suffered desperately in the Gaza for years simply because of the race and religion to which they were born.

RINO neo-con-munists and snake charming pseudo-Christians can simply retort that you're a self-hating Jew or a mentally unstable Paulite, or both. See how easy that was?

Playing the Hitler card earns the OP a cookie. Well done sparky!

Same code as outlined in my post.

So you condemn both sides. Aha. And this is exactly like the European Holocaust because ... you condemn both sides there, as well? Only proves my point: those who claim that what's happening in Gaza is the same as the Holocaust are really saying that the Jews in World War II deserved what they got. And I don't care if you are Jewish or not.

Precisely, Sparky. That's why your ilk keep bringing up the Holocaust -- because you guys don't want to play the Hitler card. Whatever.

The post and your criteria is about as cryptic a code as they get. Do you have a decoder ring for it?

That's your assertion, doesn't mean it's true. Do you want to make more "interesting" assertions such as the sky is green or that water is red?

I never brought up the Holocaust. Concentration camps do not equate to WW2 holocausts...only in teeny tiny minds. Heck, even we had concentration camps for Japs in WW2. They range in severity of implementation.

Keep playing Al Sharpton like race cards and Hitler cards, it's almost funny to watch.

It wasn't the Pope, it was a Cardinal attached to the Vatican:

What's cryptic about it. Saying that Israelis are committing a Holocaust means 1 of 3 things, take your pick: (1) It's too bad Hitler didn't kill all the Jews; (2) the Jews deserved the Holocaust; or (3) in any conflict involving Jews, Jews are morally obligated to roll over and die.

That's the logical conclusion drawn from the poster's message. She describes the situation in Gaza as the Holocaust and claims both sides are to blame -- meaning that in the European Holocaust both sides were to blame as well. That's certainly not my opinion, but apparently she believes otherwise.

Which renders the term "concentration camp", like "Holocaust", meaningless rhetorical garbage. But the ambiguity has its purposes for you, I'm sure.

Keep dealing those cards, mate -- we'll keep playing. I mean, that's what we live for -- to amuse you.
