The Sabra and Shatila massacre: A crime without justice!

George Galloway. 👍

Gary Wilson said:Those defending the Greeks here seem to forget that history is fluid. Nothing is set in stone. That’s how empires rise and fall, and how entire nations, cultures, and civilizations simply vanish into thin air.

Ha—what a tactic.

You’re quoting me from one thread in an entirely different one just to draw these impossible parallels.
Mexico — Palestine.

Is that really the extent of it? Is that truly all you could come up with? Unbelievable.

Maria Booth said:Why are we digging up the past again? Seriously! Just the other day the Lebanese Army leveled a few more camps where Palestinian rebels were hunkered down—literally nothing left but dust—and you didn't see anyone writing a single word about that. But this thread? You guys have been dragging it out for 20 years! And some of you actually think the Israelis should've protected Palestinians from the Phalangists? Like, why on earth would they protect enemies?😕

A little cynicism from Maria Booth??
Seriously, how can you even compare Sabra and Shatila to those camps the Lebanese Army hit recently??

The Lebanese Army actually let civilians get out of the camp, so all that was left were armed men—people capable of fighting back. Was that how it went down in Sabra and Shatila??

You’re writing this like the Israelis had absolutely nothing to do with the crime committed there?!

From September 16th to the 18th, 1982, Christian Phalangists were just slaughtering everyone they could find in those two camps. You know what the role of the IDF was??

To surround the camp so nobody could escape and to block any outside help from reaching the Palestinian civilian refugees.

And it doesn't stop there.
During the absolute worst part of the massacre, on the night of September 17th, the Jews were firing flares over the camp just to make sure the Phalangists could finish the "job."

So much for that people who survived the Holocaust.👎

That is the kind of thing that truly makes your blood boil. Is this really what humanity has come to?

What kind of shuddering are we talking about, my friend??
Sabra and Shatila are basically child's play compared to the other atrocities Israelis have pulled in that part of the world. Besides, Sabra and Shatila happened 35 years after the Holocaust, so you could say the Israelis who did it had somewhat forgotten what was being done to them during WWII.

But the crimes Israelis committed just a few years after the Holocaust—crimes directly committed by Israelis who were actually liberated from concentration camps—that's the stuff you truly can't wrap your head around.

The Norwegian Aftenposten (like a US version of the New York Post) ran an extensive piece on the crimes survivors of those camps committed in Palestine in 1948. That's just three (3) years after their own personal tragedy.

I don't have the time right now to translate this Norwegian article—I'll get to it some other time—but believe me when I say the killing methods and atrocities those former camp survivors unleashed on Palestinian villages, both Christian and Muslim, weren't any different from the crimes the Nazis committed against the Jews themselves just a few years prior.

The only logical conclusion is that the Jews are very fast learners!
