Afrasianet - The images of the bloodied café on the shore of the Gaza Sea left no doubt: Israel did not stop the fire. The mass murder continues, albeit slower; painful, but less.
The military spokesman said something about "elite leaders at the moment they met", about a company commander and three barn commanders who had been liquidated, about "terror plots" and "immediate threat removal", as is always the case. Not a word about the child who was killed and the rest of the senseless dead in the shelling.
Every Hamas barn commander is a legitimate target for liquidation in the eyes of almost every Israeli. I said Hamas – I said a death sentence, even if the deceased was a doctor, a teacher, an account manager in the municipality, a social worker in a community center, or a traffic policeman. One wisdom.
A large part of Israelis are convinced that Hamas is Nazi. It is therefore clear that everyone must be exterminated.
The similarity between Hamas and the Nazis is an act that licenses the Holocaust to the point of denying it, but if only the State of Israel had acted against Hamas as the victorious allies did with the Nazis at the end of the war. I wish it would behave with the thousands of abducted Hamas prisoners as it did with Adolf Eichmann. As far as Israel is concerned, Hamas is not a Nazi, they are many times more terrifying.
While Israel intends to exterminate anyone associated with Hamas in any way, and even believes it is permissible, the Allies have made a clear distinction about the level of civilian involvement.
The march of de-Nazification – another term used by the Israeli right in the context of Hamas distinguished between the main war criminals who were put on trial and imprisoned for many years and even executed with Nazi Party activists who were dismissed from their workplaces and lost part of their rights, as well as those involved to a lesser extent who received probation periods and fines, and the absolute majority of millions in Germany and other occupied countries who were pro-regime.
They have relieved them. There was no talk of exterminating all the Nazis and their collaborators.
The Nazis were the pinnacle of human evil in history, yet there was no criminal obsession to continue their extermination forever.
The situation in Gaza is different. Ben-Gvir speaks of "killing 30-40 people in Gaza every night," not just those who are an immediate danger. "They should not live," is the most beautiful spirit of the times in Israel. The formula is simple and precise: all of them in Gaza are Hamas, so they all deserve to die.
This formula has not stopped for a moment since October 7. First, in accelerated genocide, and now in more contracted genocide, but similar in nature.
This brings back research that should have ended long ago in the presence of genocide. Everyone's attribution to Hamas legitimizes genocide. The systematic genocide of Gaza, not only physical, but also political and social, is nothing less than genocide in its lethal nature. It does not allow for the rebuilding of a people.
Three years and the State of Israel has been killing and destroying in Gaza, and the end does not seem to be in sight.
Another punishment for Gaza is the legitimization of these crimes in the eyes of the Israeli public. It is a crime to detain dozens of doctors who were kidnapped because they received their wages from Hamas.
An even greater crime is the continued slaughter of the Organization's young children. In Nuremberg, ten Nazi leaders were executed (13 more, if we count the American communication trials). Israel is killing thousands, even long after the end of the war.
This massacre is taking place far from Israeli attention, which makes it even more dangerous. The suffering of the Gaza Strip is here at the most cheerful. Do you want to compare Hamas to the Nazis? They treated them at least as others treated the Nazis.
