Spoken like a true anti-semite. There is no legitimate comparison
between the plight of the Palestinians and what the jews endured under
the Nazis. See any gas chambers lately?

What's going on now in Gaza is totally self inflicted. Israel
unilaterally did exactly what the Palestinians wanted. They
withdrew. The Palestinians could have responded by electing
reasonable leaders and behaving responsibly. If they acted decently
for a number of years, and built up some trust, Israel would be happy
to be done with the whole thing. What did they do instead? Why
they elected the Hamas terrorists, who are little more than Iranian
puppets and then lobbed rockets at Israel. So, now they are getting
what they deserve.

In exactly what bizarro-world does one punish an *entire civilian
population* for "choosing the wrong leaders", as you claim the
Palestinians have done? Even if they did, in what book of international
law is it written that bombs and tanks is a legitimate response?

solve the problem: negotiations and peace with the Palestinians,
the Lebanese, the Syrians. And: with Hamas and Hizbullah.

Because it's only with enemies that one makes peace.
