Huffpost Op-Ed Compares Israel To Nazi Germany, Gazans To Holocaust Victims In Despicable Display Of Ignorance

The left-wing Huffpost has apparently managed to trivialize the Holocaust so they could run cover for misguided affinities for Hamas terrorists.

As soon as a reader opens the Spanish-Huffpost article, they are met with an image likening Nazis to Israel and Holocaust Victims to Gazans — the same people who want another Holocaust against Jews.

“Hateful are the governments that manipulate their citizens with daily fakes to justify the killings, always of innocents,” Pepe Vera wrote without a hint of irony in the aftermath of Hamas terrorists wrecking havoc on innocent Israelis. She then falsely blaming Israel for blowing up a hospital which was later determined to have been hit by a misfired Hamas rocket intended to murder more Jews.

Vera then condemned the United States for once calling Native Americans “savages” and smearing Americans who defended The Alamo.

“In World War II France was occupied by Hitler’s army. The French who fought for their land and freedom were called the ‘resistance.’ Although for the Nazis, they were simply terrorists.” (RELATED: ‘You Think All Conservatives Are Nazis’: Rep. Comer Confronts Twitter Exec With His Own, Giant Printed-Out Tweet)

“The Nazi extermination camps were not only full of Jews, they were also homosexuals, gypsies, Spaniards (red, of course) and other social or ethnic groups. Today the horror experienced by these people is indisputable,” Vera wrote. “The Nazis called them animals, when they were the real beasts.”

Vera then somehow attempts a segue by arguing France and the United Kingdom “deceived the Palestinian people and a new country was created within another. Since then, the state of Israel continues, as the United States did with the territories of indigenous nations, to occupy Palestine.”

“The incredible thing is that a people with a past as horrible as the Jewish one allows its own fascist government to use savage techniques against the Palestinian people, more typical of the Nazi regime than of a democratic state,” Vera wrote, making no mention of the fact that Hamas terrorists invaded Israel and slaughtered more than 1,200 innocent persons while kidnapping more than 100, according to reports. But apparently the Huffpost’s editorial team doesn’t think that counts as “savage techniques.”

Make no mistake, the purpose of this trivialization is to allow Hamas terrorists to slaughter Jews while drumming up international support for a terrorist organization which has unequivocally expressed their desire to kill all Jews.

So often people ask, “How did the Holocaust happen?”

This is how.

The Holocaust happened when the despicable actions of hate-filled persons were justified as merely being a response to some type of “oppression” or hardship.

Even though Gaza is the hub of Hamas terrorism, even though Palestinians voted Hamas terrorists into positions of legitimate authority (and then had no elections since that of January 2006), the people of Palestine are labeled victims of a genocide which has never happened.

If Israel wanted to wipe the Palestinian people off the face of the earth they could. But all Israel wants to do is secure the safety of their people from those who relentlessly fire rockets at and slaughter innocent civilians asleep in their beds.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
