While I agree this event is terrible, I will point out that saying that "Zionist Jews" created this situation is to ignore the contributions of the Arab side in creating and perpetuating this conflict. Further, the comparison with Nazism is repugnant. The attrocities comitted by the Nazis were far more severe, and were based on race.
It is historically relatively evident that the ultimate culprit for the palestine problem is the mismanagement of the jewish immigration situation by the united kingdom sixty years ago, who were unable to take clear decisions, and when the jews turned upon the UK, just left the region out of lack of sufficient care and responsibility.
This is how several extremist zionist organizations emerged, which are in turn responsible for the palestinian conflict, by the overwhelming advocacy of blind violence against the 'racially inferior' arabs. Just a few days ago, a prominent zionist MP qualified arabs as worms. This is still the source of the problem, jewish racial hatred against allegedly inferior races.
The comparison with nazi germany holds, provided you restrict the timescreen to the years 1933-1943. The oppression of jews is surprisingly very similar to the oppression by jews. The rhetoric is the same. Hitler also claimed security reasons for purging the jews : jews were prominently involved in the bolchevist movement, terrorists, and advocated genocide against germans. Hitler claimed to strike preemptively at them, before they come to destroy germany. Jews in the german region of influence were held in ghettoes, and treated like animals, just as palestinians are now held in ghettoes and are being treated like animals by the zionists.
What really remains debatable is if the genocide of jews under the nazis is similar to the genocide of palestinians now. Some argue now, because no systematic massive executions are taking place, some argue yes, by explaining that the systematic murder of palestinian intelligentsia, and cutting them off from economic develeopement possibilities results in thorough misery among them, which could also be qualified genocide. But as i said, this latter point is debatable. However, if one takes the destruction of lebanon into account, the clues for the comparison of the genocides become compelling.

A tape recording of radio exchanges between soldiers involved in the incident, played on Israeli television, contradicts the army’s account of the events and appears to show that the captain shot the girl in cold blood.
The official account claimed that Iman was shot as she walked towards an army post with her schoolbag because soldiers feared she was carrying a bomb.
But the tape recording of the radio conversation between soldiers at the scene reveals that, from the beginning, she was identified as a child and at no point was a bomb spoken about nor was she described as a threat. Iman was also at least 100 yards from any soldier.
Instead, the tape shows that the soldiers swiftly identified her as a “girl of about 10” who was “scared to death”.
The tape also reveals that the soldiers said Iman was headed eastwards, away from the army post and back into the refugee camp, when she was shot.
Watchtower
‘It’s a little girl. She’s running defensively eastward’
Operations room
‘Are we talking about a girl under the age of 10?’
Watchtower
‘A girl of about 10, she’s behind the embankment, scared to death’
Captain R (after killing the girl)
‘Anything moving in the zone, even a three-year-old, needs to be killed’
Witnesses described how the captain shot Iman twice in the head, walked away, turned back and fired a stream of bullets into her body. Doctors at Rafah’s hospital said she had been shot at least 17 times.
On the tape, the company commander then “clarifies” why he killed Iman: “This is commander. Anything that’s mobile, that moves in the zone, even if it’s a three-year-old, needs to be killed. Over.”

It was on the ITV news just now, and anyone who defends that soldier, or tries to deny the vulgarity of his actions, is a rat.

The soldiers lied because they wanted to oust him.
The captain never fired a burst of gunfire at point blank range into the girl's body
Don't you think it might be a very good idea to get some actually facts on this story?

Well who did shoot her?
The only testiments we have are from the soldiers but we have no idea who FIRED the shots..
The soldier admitted firing two shots from close range to "verify the kill", but denied shooting several more times.

The Officer shot her. He admitted in court that he shot her at point blank range to confirm the kill. He was still let off though.

So, WHY did the little Girl die then?
Who fired 17-shots in her body?
You do know that she is DEAD right?
How did that happen, according to the non-biased JERUSALEM POST?
