The sad fact is that abused people frequently become abusers. It takes strength and courage to break the cycle.

Just Jews being Nazis. History repeating and all that jazz.

The leaders in Israel aren’t Holocaust survivors. Israel treated Holocaust survivors like absolute shit until it realized it was bad PR.

These psychopaths have called Jewish Holocaust Survivors “anti-semites” for criticizing Israel.
Besides, there is no such thing as a racial groupmind (“Jewish hive-mind”) through which the actual trauma transmits.
Many Jews suffered in the Holocaust but many more did not, plus it’s been 80 years, so very few Jews alive today have actual trauma from it.
The whole idea of racial trauma is just the Racists trying to leverage for their own personal benefit the suffering of others who share with them nothing but ethnicity, which is why Zionists and Israel have been so big on it: as Genocidal supremacists they’re probably the worst, nastiest Racists around in the present day so of course they would claim their entire race is a victim on the backs of the suffering of somebody else to get support for their own actions no matter how malevolent.
(In fact supremacists always claim racial victimhood even without victims: the Nazis did it for the “Arian Race”, the KKK does it for the " White Race" and so on)

arguablly the Jews in Germany in ww2 were not proactively murdering innocent women and children via terrorism before the war, so I think that’s one difference.
but it doesn’t make what Israel is doing now any less Nazi-like.

Indeed. Good point.

There was a lot of armed resistance to the nazis and their genocide of not only Jewish people but other minority groups…
What you’re saying would only be an excuse if Israel never took a genocidal action before the current “war” broke out.
Like, you’re not looking at the beginning, just at one of the few times the victim got a punch in. Which just resulted in the victim getting beat harder, but who wouldn’t fight back after their friends and family have been genocide victims for generations?
