Substituting "Israeli army" for "German army" and Gaza for "Warsaw Ghetto Uprising," I see many similarities and one startling difference.
Seventy years ago, the German army was destroying Warsaw with orders "not to leave a single stone standing in the city." But Poles saw a chance to seize their freedom, whatever the cost.
Gaza is being bombed and destroyed, like Warsaw, so why wouldn't Gazans seize their freedom -- whatever the cost?
Gazans resistance fighters are using whatever weapons they can against the vast Israeli war machine. The Polish fighters even used sewers similar to Gazan tunnels.
The difference? The Polish resistance fighters were not called terrorists. Why are Palestinians who have had their land confiscated, houses appropriated, and freedom and basic human rights stolen being called terrorists and not resistance fighters like the Poles of 70 years ago?
Occupiers (whether Germans in World War II or Israelis now) need to understand that they will face resistance.
