It's been a century at this point, hasn't it? I'm pretty sure the British mandate was like in 1920 or something. Though at no point has it been this kind of Hitler shit until now.

I'm pretty one sided on this topic, and I'm sorry if my first comment was hyperbolic as well as one-sided. That said, Is what you're saying:

If Israel starves Palestinians in a ghetto they can't escape, that qualifies as Hitler shit

If so, then I have to ask if the process of Palestinians being forced into ghettos they can't escape, in their own lands, qualifies as Hitler shit?

I truly think Israel has always been this cruel. The only thing that's changed is it's a lot harder to hide something from the Internet.

Also, not like 80 years of colonialism is that different from 100, but the colonies that eventually formed into the nation of Israel were called "British Palestine". When Israel was formed in 1948, this was well after the UN had operated under the imperative that "[the recently discovered] Nukes are dangerous, but the new world order isn't evil because we can use this power to preserve countries' borders"

Also, I'm not saying anything nice about the Eastern block. I hold the opinion western intervention was okay in scenarios like Vietnam, because before capitalist imperialists and even communist imperialists, there were Japanese imperialists destabilizing that region

Nah, starving in ghettos is not that uncommon for a country with a second class population. Going for an extermination of that population would qualify as "Hitler shit".

I think up until recently Israel has been content with just stealing land and forcing locals into worse and worse situation with the hopes that they will either die or flee on their own. Now they just ampted it up to causing a full blown famine there to starve anyone who can survive the bombing and their military.

When Israelis couldn't subjugate the city of Haifa, they completely destroyed it and built a new city with the same name on top.

Theyve been doing Hitler shit for decades, is it really the case that America's longest, oldest war in the east is our most righteous?
