I didn’t realize you were THE concentration camp expert. Perhaps I should go to you the next time I need a “proper definition” of what concentration camp and genocide is? My apologies.
For me, this sounds like you want to say something that sounds cool, rather than something you actually believe. It sounds driven by emotion rather than by rationality.
The lemmy community gives you upvotes, the historians would ask you WTF you are doing and send you an invitation to actually visit what has been such a concentration camp.
Just because it’s not a Nazi camp, doesn’t mean it isn’t a camp. European Jews don’t own the trademark on misery (even if they had misery in the recent past).
If you have this much time to argue about what is a concentration camp, you have time to answer these nonsensical questions yourself. Why does Israeli defense essentially start with:
We’ll actually guys technically…
Imagine if I said the Holocaust was not genocide because enough European Jews were left to start Israel (there were millions left). You would rightfully call me an idiot.
Their defense starts with “They attacked us, we are defending ourselves and that’s our right. And to ensure that this does not happen again, we need to get rid of the terror organization Hamas.”
I’m not a fan of how many civilians are getting killed.
On the other hand, keeping Hamas in power will ensure that this will go on forever and civilian on both sides will still be killed in decades with multiple 1-3-year gaps of pseudo-peace between.
Gaza has been a concentration camp for a long time now.

It was called concentration camp above. That’s what I criticized.

Why do the Palestinians who get kicked out of their homes not count. You ignore crimes.
