“We were treated like cattle, they even wrote numbers on our hands,” said Ibrahim Lubbad, a 30-year-old computer engineer arrested in Beit Lahiya on Dec. 7 with a dozen other family members and held overnight. “We could feel their hatred.”

    Wait, I’ve seen this movie, and it doesn’t end well.

      History just repeating itself in some dystopian, non-linear way.

          Because linear would suppose that someone, somewhere would recognize the link between the Holocaust numbering and Israel’s current stupidity.

          Obviously that is not the case.

      That movie isn’t like this. If there was something like Epic Movie but about the holocaust, that’s what this movie would be.

    I honestly don’t know what would be worse- being separated from my family, forced to strip to my underwear and then trucking me to a detention camp, or letting me stay with my family, only to watch my children be murdered by an Israeli bomb. There’s no escape for Palestinians.

      Option 3: They kill your family while you are in detention and show you a video, to get you to give up these Hamas soldiers you know nothing about.

      Then in about ten or fifteen years when the butchers bill comes due, they will be shocked! Shocked I tell you.

    Gentle reminder that your country leaders are not doing anything about it…

    They keep talk about WWII and how bad Hitler was, yet they keep silent in broadcast genocide finding lame excuses to not intervene…

      Not just. This is wayyy worse. They’re giving Hitler all his weapons and money and say they unconditionally support him. Then they park their military in his backyard and threaten anyone who wants to help the poor people being genocided.

      The West went full mask off this time. They are literal Nazi’s. Nothing has changed the last 100 years.
