In Hamas’ horrific killings, Israeli trauma over the Holocaust resurfaces

Women, children and older adults hiding in safe rooms gunned down mercilessly. Homes set ablaze with terrified residents still inside them. Children, some bound, forced into a room and slaughtered. Jews, helpless.

For many Israelis and Jews around the world, the horrors committed by Hamas militants during their stunning onslaught on southern Israeli communities is triggering painful memories of a calamity of a far greater scale: the Holocaust.

Long seen as a catastrophe so horrific nothing else should be compared to it, Israelis are now drawing direct parallels between the murder of 6 million Jews in Europe eight decades ago and their most recent tragedy, underscoring how traumatic the attack has been for a country that rose from the ashes of World War II and was created as a safe haven for Jews.

It’s nothing like the Holocaust and it’s pretty disgusting for anyone to make that comparison.

And the audacity to mention the holocaust while Israel is literally committing genocide themselves… Whoever wrote this article didn’t think about it much.

Yeah, Israel has been the oppressors for decades…

In what world is Israel committing genocide? This shit is ridiculous. You want to criticize Israeli actions, fine, there’s a lot there to criticize. But genocide? Clearly not.

Some of the dead and captured are holocaust survivors.

And it sucks that they are going through it. But it’s not the same situation in the slightest

The scale is no where close.

That said, targeting of non-combatant civilians should always be condemned. All it does is serve to destroy a population and provoke more violence.

Absolutely. Fuck Hamas.

Especially considering the rhetoric from a few Israelis could be word for word out of Hitlers mouth if it was in German instead of Hebrew and about Jews and not Palestinians. It’s shocking hearing holocaust survivors spread the same flavor of blind hate that lead to their own trauma.

It’s the largest mass killings of jews since the Holocaust, so it’s not ‘disgusting’, it’s a relevant fact

Murdering non combatants is disgusting, by whoever and however, and both the Israelis and Hamas are guilty of it

Jews were not the oppressors leading up to WWII
