The Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, which began 82 years ago today, is now universally hailed as a bold act of Jewish resistance against the Nazis. But at the time, many Poles watched — or cheered — as the ghetto burned. The parallels with Gaza are hard to ignore.

    the Ghetto’s destruction was done by an invading and occupying external force, not by the country’s own army with the full support of the citizens.

    The destruction of Gaza and the genocide of the Palestinians are also committed by an invading and occupying external force, the colonial entity called Israel. Or are you suggesting that it is committed by Palestinians?

    There are clear parallelism between both, at least in my opinion.
