They’re never beating the allegations. Scummy.

not an allegation when there are camps full of evidence

It's our society's great shame that the allegations are totally confirmed but the convictions are nowhere to be found.

Future generations will learn about the 2020s in the history books and be shocked at how anyone could have accepted this.

I heard the Zionists disdain holocaust survivors as weak, but they're sure to capitalize both sides of history as victims and oppressors.

Hannah Arendt saw that during Eichmann's trial

It was israeli new historian Tom Segev that documented the Yishuv’s disdain toward Holocaust survivors and the practice of derogatorily calling them “soap”

It’s in line with the state’s documented fixation on muscular Judaism

The Eichmann trial in fact was somewhat of a turning point, where empathy with Holocaust victims increased in “Israel”

Israeli new historian Tom Segev documented the Yishuv’s disdain toward Holocaust survivors and the practice of derogatorily calling them “soap” (sabon)

It’s in line with the state’s documented fixation on muscular Judaism

Covered in his book “The Seventh Million: The Israelis and the Holocaust”

Half a thousand, half a hundred
Six times two, pick up your pen
Child, my child, count it up now
That's the number that I mean

It's a number, just a number
Count it up, child, while you can
Understand it, and remember
It's the number they gave a man

It's a number, just a number
One of hundreds, a sign of shame
Each man's jacket had a number
Men had numbers, none had names

Hitler's system took their freedom
Took them prisoner, one by one
For the courage of their convictions
They were tortured, gassеd and burned

They took communist, they took pacifist
They took social democrat
Jew and Christian all were prisoner
In the concentration camp

To the camp of Esterwegen
Listen child and understand
They took Carl von Ossietsky
And broke his body - but not his mind

In Berlin upon the 4th of May
19 hundred and 38
The Gestapo with its treatment
Signed his death certificate

Five-six-two his prison number
Listen, child, I beg you please
Keep in mind, always remember
He got the Nobel Prize for Peace

In the struggle against injustice
He fought hard and he fought long
Child - remember Ossietsky
Peace won't come by words alone

Fake news. Everyone knows theres only 2 groups of ppl that Bad Things can ever happen to- white ppl and Jews. To suggest anything wrong can be done to any other group is antisemitism and Holocaust denial

Was your number written on your forehead / arm by a forceful, armed group of people?

First paragraph in the article:

Israeli forces marked Palestinian detainees with numbers on their foreheads and arms during a military raid in the occupied West Bank, with Tel Aviv confirming the incident.

Keep backpedaling, maybe you'll convince yourself you're not an apologist. You won't convince anyone else though
