    At the height of the holocaust, nazi’s and their collaborators killed 500.000 jews per month

    How do you think the Egyptians decided on the price to let people out of Gaza?

      I’m not comparing the treatment to death camps, I’m comparing it to concentration camps.

      The mass executions of prisoners by the Nazis ramped up in the last few years. Is your argument that we need to wait until the death rate is comparable in the Palestinian Occupied Territories? Because my argument is to stop it now

      If you want to go for a direct comparison with Nazi Germany, then you’d want to look at the Jewish prisoners in the Warsaw Ghettos.

      What is the point in trying to rank genocides? The only useful part of doing a comparison is to recognize how dehumanization occurs, and how to recognize a genocide early in order to prevent as many deaths as possible.
