At a UN Security Council debate yesterday, French Ambassador Jean-Maurice Ripert led a walkout after Libya made disgraceful comments comparing the situation in Gaza to Nazi concentration camps. His Western counterparts followed.

I think the West is finally getting fed up with the hateful rhetoric that Hamas and the Muslims have been saying for years.
Gaza isn’t a concentration camp, internment camp or prison. Gaza is a slum. A slum made that way by Arab mismanagement and corruption.
What is needed in Gaza is some old-fashioned bulldozers to clean up the slum! Or some F-16 will do nicely too.
Findalis, you are a sick man. I presume you are talking about the same buldozers that have razed houses with people still inside, that have rolled over Rachel Courrie. These houses are peoples homes. The buldozers and walls push the people further and further into the sea. I think that it’s quite right to make the comparison – why not? They are suffering a great deal and are made to show their papers at every check point, women cannot get to the hospital to give birth, school children are snipered by Israeli troops, the Israeli soldiers even occupied the centre for children’s culture – destroyed all their office equipment, smeared shit all over the children’s artwork and the walls and pissed on the floor. For every Israeli victim of terrorism there are four or five victims of Israeli agression.
I would make the comparison not with the horrors of the concentration camps – but with the horrors of the apartheid in South Africa.
Go to the strip and live. Witness UN aid being denied by Israeli soldiers, witness the humiliation at the check points, witness men’s bones being smashed by Israeli soldiers, witness the children try and fail to fight off the buldosers with sling shots, and get shot in tho process.
We need to work towards peace. We need to put an end to this nonsense rhetoric about security and terrorism. We need to admit that we are terrorists as much as they are. It is the only way to stop the persecution of our people, Jewish and arab.
We need to grow up.
