    Ah yes, comparing 18,000 people dead as the result of collateral damage in dense urban warfare to the systematic round-up and extermination of 6 million Jews by Hitler. Makes perfect sense. What was I thinking?

      We’re on our way to get to 6 million. This is the world failing to stop a full blown genocide from resuming.

      Imagine yourself saying that at the beginning of the holocaust when the humber of casualties was only 18k.

      That would be disgusting wouldn’t it?

      I think no one except for supporters of Israel would dub this was “collateral damage”. Literally no one else agrees.

      Disturbing.
