I apologize. Obviously, I hold a different viewpoint on this than others at LGF. I didn’t mean to offend.

I generally get railed on here for being pro-Palestinan and anti-Israel— neither of which are strictly speaking, true— but I found what you wrote to be eye-rollingly naive. The Palestinian problem could be solved overnight, and could have been solved at any point during history, by the actions of the Arab nations: recognizing Israel, and giving up territory to create Palestine. They have adamantly refused to do this, because Palestinians are a useful political chip for them.

The article references Kristallnacht, which was an organized and system campaign of terror against Jews throughout Germany. It included thousands of arrests in a single night.

You cannot ever say that every night is a Kristallnacht; the reason it is such a wrong thing to say is that Kristallnacht was a single night of death and terror and horror, a gross demonstration of power and mob violence. It bears no resemblance to anything going on in Palestine.
