"There are not 6,000,000 of them, "
Nobody said there were - but (to repeat, as you have constantly refused to comment on) I have never once attempted to compare like with like and your accusation of anti-Semite Jew baiter would be perfectly justified if I had; I merly said that there are echoes of the Nazi treatment of the Jews. Surely the proposed forcible ejection of 30-60 thousand people is indication enough that this is the case?
There are smaller incidents that are reminiscent of Nazi behaviour - jeering soldiers forcing a musician to play for them "to prove he was what he said he was" http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2004/nov/29/israel
Or the Israeli soldiers who billeted themselves with a Palestinian family and shat in all the cooking utensils when they left - all chillingly reminiscent of the Nazi behaviour towards the Jews.
I've already mentioned the massacres, the wall, the razing of homes, te evictions - now we have a proposed ethnic cleansing which once again you choose to defend with your silence.
You have hidden behind accusations of 'anti-Semitism' to avoid facing these incidents and your own double standards on anti Jewish and anti-Pakistani racism calls your own racist stance to question.
It seems that "anti-Semitism" rather than "patriotim" has become "the last refuge of a scoundrel" (in your case, an extremely cowardly one in defence of what has become a fascist state).
