George Bush called the Hamas retaliatory rocket strikes a “terrorist” action. What does that make the Israeli aggression against the Palestinian people? Hundreds have been killed and thousands injured in the unprovoked attacks on Gaza. And George W. Bush has the gall to call Hamas’ defensive action an act of terrorism?

Ehud Olmert has forced Jews out of Gaza under the pretext of establishing a specific place for Palestinians to live. A wall was erected, with armed guards, to force Palestinians to remain in Gaza. This has all been part of a plot by the Israelis to herd the Palestinians into one place to kill them more effectively. It is easy to determine where the Jews learned this guileful and unscrupulous technique.

In 1940, an area in Poland was established specifically for Jews. All nonjewish personnel were forced out of the region. A wall was erected, with armed guards, to force Jews to remain within the approved confines. This area came to be known as the Warsaw ghetto, and the inhabitants were systematically murdered by the Nazis who created it.

The Palestinian inhabitants of Gaza are not being shipped off to death camps (yet – that we know of) but instead are being slaughtered in the ghetto created for them. This is pure evil on the part of the Israeli government. We can only hope that Obama will have more sense than Bush, and work towards tearing down the Jewish Apartheid wall and restore the Palestinians to their homeland.

I am ashamed of my country for providing the firepower, F-16s, Apache helicopters, and billions of dollars that are being used to exterminate the Palestinians. I am also ashamed of Israel. What the Nazis did to them was atrocious, but it is equally atrocious that the victim has become the villain. Israel reminds me of an abused child who grows up to abuse his own children.
