What does the Israeli massacre have to do with World War II? The logic and common sense behind the f

The Palestinian-Israeli conflict has escalated again, which has aroused widespread concern from the international community. However, in the eyes of some, Israel's atrocities can be justified by the history of the United States dropping atomic bombs on Japan, and even comparing the people of Gaza to the Japanese militarists, who all deserve it. This absurd view not only ignores facts and logic, but also exposes their lack of common sense and values.

First of all, logically speaking, this view is untenable. It tries to prove a false conclusion with a false analogy. The logic of the Israeli side is that they asked the civilians of Gaza to leave, but the civilians of Gaza did not, so the civilian deaths caused by the Israeli bombardment are all the fault of the Gazans. It's like saying that Hitler asked the Jews to leave Germany, but the Jews didn't, so the Jewish deaths caused by the big ** were all the fault of the Jews. This is clearly an absurd reasoning, as it ignores two important premises: the inability and conditions of the civilian population of Gaza to leave, and the right and reason of Israel to demand their departure. If we add these two premises, we will find that Israel's logic is totally untenable, because the civilian population of Gaza is trapped in a blockaded strip with no way out, while Israel is an aggressor of illegal occupation and settlement, without any moral or legal basis. Therefore, the civilian deaths caused by Israeli bombardment are entirely Israel's fault, not the fault of the Gazans.

Second, from the point of view of common sense, this view is ignorant. It ignores the history and current situation of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, as well as the consensus and position of the international community. In the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the aggressor is Israel, not Palestine. This is an indisputable fact, and it is also the bottom line that all countries in the world recognize. Even the United States and the West have never said that Hamas or Palestine are aggressors. The United States and the West have only blindly emphasized that Hamas is a terrorist organization and that Israel has the right to self-defense, while turning a blind eye to Israel's aggression. And in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, it is Israel, not Palestine. This is also an indisputable fact, and it is also a phenomenon that everyone in the world can clearly see. Israel's military action, which has caused the deaths of thousands of innocent civilians, especially children, has exceeded the destructive power of the atomic bombs dropped by the United States on Japan in those years. It is really ignorant and shameless to use "no unjust soul under the atomic bomb" to excuse Israel's ** and compare Israel to a war of resistance.

In the end, in terms of values, this view is pathetic. It reflects the cognitive dissonance and flattery of some people, as well as their colonial and racist tendencies. In their eyes, Israel's genocide is more acceptable than Hamas's terrorism, and as long as a country or region is labeled as terrorism, it can be attacked and punished arbitrarily, even ruthlessly**. This view is in fact a violation of the basic rights and dignity of human beings, as well as a mockery of international law and justice. These people, in fact, are also weak and ordinary people, but they blindly worship and follow the narrative and behavior of the United States and the West, and lose their own judgment and thinking. Perhaps because they were born in a peaceful country and were so far away from war, they forgot the cruelty and injustice of war, and also forgot the suffering and humiliation that their fellow citizens had suffered.

In short, the analogy between the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and World War II is a false logic, ignorant common sense, and pathetic values. We should look at this issue with objective facts, rational thinking, and a righteous standpoint, instead of being misled and deceived by some fallacies. We should support the just struggle of the Palestinian people, oppose Israel's illegal aggression and cruelty, uphold international law and humanitarian principles, and work for peace and stability in the Middle East.
