Incarcerated Japanese-American children & incarcerated Palestinian children: No difference
I just toured the Berkeley Historical Society's new exhibit regarding the harsh incarceration of Japanese-American children during World War II -- and was immediately struck by the close similarity between Manzanar's children and the children of Gaza (except of course for the part where America is supplying the torches that burn thousands of Gaza children alive).
I saw a poster at the exhibit that read, "I dream of a world where children are not incarcerated." Yeah, well. We still have a long long long way to go before we can make that dream come true -- but if we ever really want this to happen, then we need to stop futzing around and make it happen.
Most of us are now totally ashamed of what America did to Japanese-American children back then. Will most Americans also be totally ashamed of what they are doing to the children of Gaza as well? And will most of us Americans start working to stop this horror?
We can picket weapons manufacturers. We can call our governmental representatives (the ones who are spozed to work for us). And, if nothing else, we can wear our keffiyahs every day.
PS: For the past 80 years, Palestinians have been invaded, occupied, lied to, demonized and called terrorists -- just for defending their homes and their land.
Palestinians have been cut off from commerce, denied education, called Human Animals, imprisoned, tortured, raped and murdered in cold blood.
I wish that I was that brave.

Is Yahya Sinwar dead or not? Probably so. But anyone who watches John Elmer's videos knows that Resistance fighters never mask up when heading into battle against the Zionists who have incarcerated their children. Who the freak can see through all that cloth? Perhaps it's just one of the Zionists' thousands of poor random Palestinian prisoners hidden under all that stuff? Or maybe I'm just living in denial.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q1NvH0Hyp1Q
Printing fake money in order to support Endless War is how the Federal Reserve devalues our currency. The result?
