Regime That Harbored Nazi War Criminals Likes To Compare Israel To Nazis

The regime that Tadmor Prison regular accuses Israel of torturing Palestinians, with scant evidence, while it also tortures and kills Palestinians in its own facilities all over Syria.

Flag of SyriaDamascus, October 31 – A regime still officially at war with the Jewish State since the latter’s establishment in 1948 has shown a fondness for analogies that place that Jewish State in the role of the genocidal fascists that controlled Germany before wand during World War II, and has also provided shelter to, and received both training and advice from, actual German commanders responsible for genocide.

Syrian President Basher Assad, like his father Hafez before him, follows the common anti-Israel rhetorical tactic of invoking Nazi Germany’s treatment of Jews to describe Israel’s behavior toward Palestinians. Syrian President Basher Assad, like his father Hafez before him, has displayed Nazi-level brutality against his own people, in addition to harboring the likes of Austrian-born SS Captain Alois Brunner, who oversaw the deportation to death and concentration camps of almost 130,000 Jews from Italy, Slovakia, France, and elsewhere; few survived. Syria’s regime also engages in frequent Holocaust denial or minimization despite invoking the Holocaust as the example of ultimate evil.

The elder Assad’s massacre of tens of thousands of insurgents and civilians at Hama in 1982 recalled Wehrmacht tactics in response to insurgent activity in occupied countries, while both elder and younger Assads have toed the general pro-Palestinian line of accusing Israel of ethnic cleansing that somehow has increased the Palestinian population tenfold since Israel’s establishment. The world Jewish population has yet to reach its pre-Holocaust level in a similar timeframe.

Brunner’s term as head of the Drancy internment camp in France – mostly a way-station before the Auschwitz-Birkenau extermination facility in Poland – featured torture or summary execution for the most minor offenses; survivors spoke of bullet holes and blood stains covering the walls of his commandant office. Similar methods have found a home in Tadmor Prison, in the Syrian city of Palmyra, where inmates undergo physical and psychological torment that would delight Brunner if the victims were Jews. The regime that runs the prison regular accuses Israel of torturing Palestinians, with scant evidence, while it also tortures and kills Palestinians in its own facilities all over Syria.

Syria’s frequent use of Holocaust denial or minimization echoes Brunner’s alleged denial that gas chambers existed at Auschwitz-Birkenau, Mauthausen, Treblinka, Majdanek, Sobibor, Chelmno, or Belzec. A similar parallel exists between the Assad regime’s indiscriminate brutality in suppressing rebels during the current civil war and German treatment of locales suspected of harboring guerrilla insurgents in all the countries the Third Reich occupied during WWII; the regime has often accused Israel of wiping out entire villages, while 75-80% of Palestinian refugees never saw a single Israeli soldier.
