Concentration camps are back – why does that not bother anyone?

Israel has soft-launched its concentration camp in Rafah, and Donald Trump has hard-launched Alligator Alcatraz, while other countries look the other way.

Anyone inside the Rafah concentration camp will be deported elsewhere. Anyone outside it will slaughtered. How can anyone defend this? How?! Fucking Nazis. https://t.co/4FB0Kl3nYp

Concentration camps in the US and Gaza

Israel has made it clear that anyone who does not make their way to the new concentration camp, on what used to be Rafah city, will become a legitimate target for elimination.

“Israel” is putting Palestinians in death camps and slaughtering anybody who remains outside.

This is undeniably a Holocaust. There’s no other word that can describe the magnitude of this crime.

Britain is complicit in the systematic genocide of the Palestinian people. https://t.co/qxHjWO5dBF

Just to be clear, though. At no point so far has Israel needed a legitimate justification for eliminating anyone. They have done what they want, to whom they want, from the start.

I do wonder at those ppl who once used to ask, if you cld go back in time wld you shoot Hitler, as if it were a moral no-brainer, but hv now become entirely comfortable with this sort of thing. https://t.co/fFQe6idUWf

Israel could not have made their intentions clearer – ethnic cleansing.

As overt a statement of intention to commit ethnic cleansing as it would be possible to find https://t.co/gwSnspNRtq

And still, Western Government are supporting it – providing weapons and support and pretending they don’t see the long list of war crimes because little Netanyahu might throw a temper tantrum.

How are Western governments supporting this???

I’ve never been so angry with politicians. https://t.co/x7w3HFC5kq

So what choice to Palestinians have right now? Go to a concentration camp, eventually die of starvation, or be murdered by Israel. Or don’t, and Israel will exterminate you for failing to comply with their sick little game.

You would think that given this heinous plan, a concentration camp for up to 600,000 Palestinians in Gaza, leaves more than 1,000,000 within the occupied territory of Gaza. Is the Israeli regime and IDF seriously trying to justify murdering them all? And what will happen

Everyone looks back on World War II and wonders how the Nazi’s got away with what they did for so long. Here’s your answer.

look man everyone needs to get over whatever reservations they have about speaking out against this evil. this is the exact, exact same stuff that happened in Germany in the 1940’s.

If you aren’t saying something, somewhere, about this, now is the time https://t.co/zuM37qmjud

Looking the other way

Benjamin Netanyahu has watched on as Trump launched Alligator Alcatraz, which experts have already deemed unsafe only days after opening. They have designed it to hold up to 3,000 detainees.

Already, detainees are reporting dangerous and inhumane conditions, including lack of access to water, inadequate food and denial of religious rights. Additionally, reports suggest dangerous temperatures, giant bugs, no hospital visits, and unsanitary conditions. Never mind no confidential calls with attorneys.

Trump and Netanyahu are playing from the exact same book – fascism.

‘Sticking point’

Meanwhile, David Lammy said that Israel’s planned concentration camps were a ‘sticking point’.

On Tuesday 8 July, the National reported that when the foreign secretary was confronted with the Israeli defence minister’s plans to build a camp on the ruins of Rafah, he said it was “a big sticking point for getting that ceasefire”.

Pretty funny how the Lancet’s estimates of 189,000 dead were not a sticking point. Or bombing schools and every hospital in Gaza.

Calling it a ‘sticking point’ is ridiculous. A sticking point is not agreeing on what colour carpet to buy or what time to go see the new Superman movie. Countless breaches of international law and straight-up war crimes are not sticking points. Yet again, the UK is failing to uphold international law and is complicit in Israel’s genocide.
