Hitler’s Germany was a hyper-aggressive, international-law breaking regime which genocided Jews, but Israel is a hyper-aggressive, international-law breaking regime (or ‘democracy’ — a racicst apartheid ‘democracy’) which genocides Gazans. Did Hitler’s regime have a right to exist? Does Netanyahu’s regime have a right to exist?
In Israel’s case, the ethnic cleansing (called the “Nakba”) against Palestinians started on 15 May 1948, which was the day after U.S. President Harry Truman created Israel on 14 May 1948; and, though Truman did nothing to condemn Israel’s ethnic cleansing, Albert Einstein and other progressive Jews condemned it in a letter to the editor of the New York Times on 4 December 1948, by calling Menachem Begin and other Israeli leaders of that ethnic cleansing “fascist” and even “nazi,” for what they were doing. Then, on 23 April 2018, Israel’s leader Benjamin Netanyahu eulogized Begin and proclaimed him to be “a true hero.”
The fascist or even nazi Begin had co-founded (with Ariel Sharon) Netanyahu’s Party, Likud, in 1973, and served as Israel’s leader during 1977-1983. Netanyahu, Israel’s longest-serving Prime Minister, has basically led Israel ever since 1996.
The constant lies supporting Israel as-if that racist-fascist-apartheid-genocidal supremacist state has a right to exist or ISN’T what it is (racist-fascist-apartheid-genocidal supremacist), are all over the place, and here is just one typical billionaire-funded example of it today (August 8th):

[viewer comment:]
Why did you do this interview with this Charles Koch funded neocon propagandist Rosemary Kelanic who says Russia-hating Israel-loving things such as “4:08
Um, for countries that don’t care
at all about human rights, say like the
Russias of the world, this problem is not
that hard to solve because you just go
in and destroy the place
indiscriminately, right? Israel is a
democracy. They’re trying to maintain
support in the West and throughout the
rest of the world. And so they’re trying
to adhere to some standards of human
rights and you know laws of war.
4:34“?
That lying on your show is shameful.

Investigative historian Eric Zuesse’s latest book, AMERICA’S EMPIRE OF EVIL: Hitler’s Posthumous Victory, and Why the Social Sciences Need to Change, is about how America took over the world after World War II in order to enslave it to U.S.-and-allied billionaires. Their cartels extract the world’s wealth by control of not only their ‘news’ media but the social ‘sciences’ — duping the public.

Re: “Hitler’s Germany was a hyper-aggressive, international-law breaking regime which genocided Jews”
You have absolutely no evidence for your genocide claim, apart from the lies that came out of the Jewish run Nuremberg Trials, like the outrageous claim made by the US Chief Justice at the Nuremberg Trials, Robert Jackson, who alleged that 20,000 Jews were Killed by a Nazi Atomic Bomb near Auschwitz.
Einstein and progressive Jews wrote their letter about a fringe group in Israel led by Begin (before and into the 1948 War). Ben Gurion (progressive) and Begin were arch -enemies. In 1949, Begin’s group did get tiny 11% of the Israeli vote in the elections, but by 1951, that group was pretty much done, losing most of the few government seats and not even close to any sort of power in Israel until 1977. Not to mention that Begin had no power before 1948 either. “The Nakba” was driven by Arab determination to expel/kill some 650,000 Jews from that immediate… Read more »
Re: “The Nakba” was driven by Arab determination to expel/kill some 650,000 Jews from that immediate region.”
I see you like to blame the victim, in a dishonest Talmudic fashion.
Talmudic? As a non-Jewish Texan, I have no idea what you mean by that. Are you disagreeing that the Arabs started the war against the Jews the next day after the UN vote? Are you disagreeing that the Arabs rejected a fantastic plan that would have given them absolute control over the Jews there? The Federated State plan? Plenty of primary sources for those two above (UN website). Are you disagreeing that the Arab position was that the Jews needed to be expelled in mass? Those sources come from the 11 UNSCOP committee members that spent a lot of time… Read more »
