Galloway: Gaza is Like the Warsaw Ghetto

[n2doc]

British MP George Galloway, who is known for his hatred towards Israel and his backing of the Hamas terrorist group, recently compared Gaza to the Warsaw Ghetto, and the residents of the region to the Jews who led the Warsaw Ghetto uprising during World War II.

The comments were made by Galloway on his weekly show on the government-run Iranian English-language Press TV channel on April 12.

The remarks were posted to the internet by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI).

“What else is Gaza but a Warsaw Ghetto? When the people, the heroes, of the uprising of the Warsaw Ghetto, who decided they'd rather die on their feet, than live on their knees, desperate for food and water, rose up and tackled their besiegers – those who were keeping them in that Warsaw Ghetto – they were rightly hailed and are remembered in history as freedom fighters, as heroes. Yet the Palestinians, when they rise up out of their Warsaw Ghetto, are called terrorists in your country, and in my country, never mind in the country that is doing the besieging,” charged Galloway.

1. its the truth

The Nazis claimed themselves as the master race with with God given rights to lebensraum.
The Israeli Zionists claim themselves as the Chosen people who have been given the land of Palestine by God..


Israel needs to move from an ethnic religious state to a democratic one as does Iran.

3. You'll find a lot of people here agreeing with

Your disgusting post comparing Jews/Zionists with Nazis ( which is against the rules here on DU)

2. and who would know how to create something like that?

Those who were persecuted in the same way. Had there been reparation and reabsorption into their old communities and they were allowed to heal at home rather than sent to another continent to do what was done to them.
