– Israel has turned the Gaza strip into an open air concentration camp — no, it's not a prison; you end up in prison when you've done something wrong. The Palestinians of Gaza have done nothing wrong.
– Israel talks openly, on many levels, of war crimes, of genocide, of committing genocide.
– Israel says "erase the history of them", an echo of Nazi Germany and the extermination of Jews.
– Israel dehumanises Palestinians, calling them "animal humans" or "human animals", again an echo of Nazi Germany and the extermination of Jews.
– Israel allows settlers to grab homes, to grab lands, to destroy the livelihood of Palestinians, and ultimately to kill Palestinians.
– Israel submits the people of Palestine, in Gaza aswell as in the West Bank, to repeated pogroms.
– Israel practices Apartheid, where different laws apply depending if you're a Muslim or a Jew.
– Israel quite literally builds walls to oppress Palestinians.
– Israel uses gas, launched from drones, to hurt and kill Palestinians.
Read that last one again: Israel uses gas, launched from drones, to hurt and kill Palestinians.
Israel says "comparing what Israel does to Palestinians with what Germany did to Jews is antisemitism", yet they behave in very much the same way as Germany did during the Holocaust.
Yet, Israel is committing genocide; erasing entire blood-lines, murdering babies.
They talk about Nakba as were it not akin to the Shoah.
I am a person of Palestinian descent, born in Chile, refuged in Sweden. I stay up nights watching the horrors unfold in Palestine — a place where I have relatives and family I've never met due to generations of fight and flight to stay alive — and I say Israel no longer gets to weaponise the Holocaust.
