No one can forgive or forget what 6 Million suffered in WWII. And rightly so.
But I would have thought that because they suffered so badly, that they might show more compassion towards another race also suffering as a result of the United Toothless Nations uplifting a race of people to allow that race a place to live.
I think if Anne Frank were alive today she would be mortified at the way Israel carries on.
From oppressed to oppressor; from being forced to live in ghetto's to bulldozing peoples houses and stealing their land. Seems like Israel has crossed some sort of moral rubicon so to speak.
Imo There will be no peaceful solution to the Israel/Palestine issue because Israel holds all the cards/power and so long as the US props them up they are basically untouchable and their aggression will go unchallenged.
Got to feel for the Palestinians in all this, they must feel powerless against such odds and abandoned by any notion of justice
Anne Frank was German not Israeli. The Israelis bulldoze peoples homes if their family had been suicide bombers. Not too many of them now.Most Arabs in Israel are citizens.
You are right about there being no peace solution right now, however you and I don't really understand the complex situation.
I was there in 1969 and have a minute understanding of the problems that confront this situation.
Semantics but pretty sure she was Dutch.
I’ve spent some time in Israel and it is complex. That happens when 3 religions each claim sacred sites, within one km of each other. Makes it somewhat fascinating.
Their ability to defeat constant invasion attempts from their Arab neighbours is to be admired, but that finished in 1973. Current Israeli treatment of Palestinians (spp) now closely parallels Apartheid South Africa.
Seeeping generalisation but on my world wide backpacker travels, young Israelis are top spot for highest rate of arse holes. Can be unbelievably rude to locals and fellow tourists. Far from all, but a higher % than any other country. No excuse, and you think if anything they would be encouraged to be PR ambassadors. My sample view is they mostly just don’t care what the world thinks of them.
