Over 50% of Germans equate IDF with Nazi army

[Pekka]

Was that my point?

Move on.

Are you insane? Maybe it's low-cost, but the M4 is better in any situation if you're not strapped for cash.



Oh, and Germany should not be trying to marginalize its atrocities by comparing them with something on a far lesser scale.

[Ted Striker]

M4 is good especially with the silencer but I like the IDF because of the fire control under automatic and rapid amount of bullets it spits out.

Most people prefer M4 though.

[Pekka]

I prefer BlastaMastah from PWS.

The Germans blitzkrieged through Belgium, the Netherlands, and France, not the Jews. FFS, you have no clue what you're talking about!

It was a ****ing analogy young man.

Who cares what the Germans think? They're the ones who thought the Nazis were A-OK in the first place, so why exactly should we trust their opinion on other people's actions?

Because for a long time the German public has probably been the one in Europe most sympathetic to Israel?

[Tassadar500]

Well, they did kill six million of us.

Nazis? No.

Apartheid? Pretty much.

This is indeed a far better analogy. We should be as dedicated to civil rights for the pals as we were for south africans under apartheid while recognizing that in no way did either apartheid or israel manage to stoop to the lows that the nazis did in ww2. You don't need to grossly exagerate gross injustice.

Americans killing Indians wasn't comparable to the holocaust either, because we at least did it just through disease and military force, rather than lining them up and gassing them

it was comparible at times. The trail of tears forced march was certainly no military campaign.

Godwin's law is only applicable to debates, and it is only a signal that the debate has run its course and will soon draw to a close.

Idiocy

That just tells me 50% of Germans are either stupid or ignorant. Given the European media consistent failure to provide fair reporting on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict I'd guess they're just ignorant of the real situation.

[Pekka]

Come on not you too Oerdin? What is European MEDIA?
Oh right, there is not such thing. You mean Guardian? Hardly. Just some leftist rag the publish in the UK.

It doesn't seem like the German public is very educated in this matter.

It's the USA that doesn't get fair and balanced reporting. Even Israeli media are to the left of your rags, and Ha'aretz is often well to the left of the Grauniad.
