That's the considered opinion of Lauren Booth, pictured above buying Snickers bars and a few other creature comforts at a well stocked grocery in Gaza City in between meetings with her Hamas pals.
Booth, Tony Blair's sister-in-law is one of the useful idiots in that “Free Gaza” group who set out on two boats from Cyprus in an attempt to break the blockade of the terrorist enclave. The Israeli navy declined to stop them or sink them perhaps because of Booth's presence so they got through, after which Booth and nine of her Hamas loving friends chose to remain in Gaza, giving up their places for the return trip on the boats to Hamas 'refugees' bound for Europe.Unfortunately, she's stuck there now, unable to exit through Israel or Egypt. And ranting about concentration camps to the media.
Now, perhaps I'm being uncharitable.
Like many if not most Leftards, Ms. Booth undoubtedly comes from a privileged background and may not understand exactly what a concentration camp is. Perhaps she merely needs some instruction:

This is a mass grave in Bergen-Belsen, Ms. Booth. You see, the Nazi concentration camps were designed not to 'concentrate people, but to murder them, man, woman and child.
This is another feature of real concentration camps, Ms.Booth..ovens designed to burn the bodies of victims.
And this, Ms. Booth, is what the victims of concentration camps look like. This jolly photo was taken in the German camp of Wobbelin. Being primitive sorts, the Americans insisted on taking the townspeople for a little tour after the Germans insisted they had no idea of what was going on downwind from them.After they were forced to take the tour, the Mayor of the town and his wife both committed suicide.
Again, just so you fully understand what's coming out of your mouth...this is what a concentration camp looks like.Seen anything like this in Gaza while you were shopping to feed your face,Ms. Booth?
Seen anything remotely like it?
I didn't think so.
Now that we're clear on this little matter, I also have to report that British diplomats are actually working diligently on getting this foul harridan out of this trap of her own making and back to Britain.
You're quite welcome to her, cousins. For my part, I wouldn't waste spit on her if she were on fire.

I can sense you're really angry about this ignorant idiotic woman's comments. Seeing all those horrible pictures of the concentration camps' victims only makes me agree with you completely.
When I hear some self-proclaimed "experts" opine on things they know nothing of, all I want to do is take their heads and smash them together, and that goes for both the Left and Right.
Hi Nazar,
Yes, this kind of willful stupidity an darrogance does anger me. People throw terms like this around far too easily.
It especially angers me to hear it coming from a Briton, since the UK was complicit in the death toll at places like this by shutting off Jewish immigration to Palestine on the eve of the Holocaust and trapping millions of Jews in Europe who otherwise might thave been saved..and then doing their level best to arm, officer and train the Arab armies in 1948 to kill off the surviving Jews in Israel a mere three years after Auschwitz was liberated.

If you strip concentration camp of its historical context, then all it just means is an organized location where people or resources are concentrated and stockpiled.
And certainly it is true that Palestinians have been stockpiling their people, their hate, and their weapons in the territory known as Judea.
I think its important for people to remember she's fighting for the good side, even if you think she's doing it badly - atleast she's doing it.
It might be stupid of her to label it "the largest concentration camp" but the more she exagerates the more media attention she gets, and thats what Gaza needs right now.
I think people should be happy enough that someone cares, and not be pedantic about their methods. If you want to help the situation, don't spread hate about your allies, why not try and help her find a better way? or do something yourself? its pretty easy to sit comfortably at home and criticise peoples methods.
She's just using any means neccesary to bring attention to a suffering people, she's not trying to down-play the holacaust, why isn't that obvious to you?
I don't agree with what she's said, but i know why she's said it. If you had the patience and the open mind to take a deeper look, maybe you will too.
The world is full of hate, please stop adding to it.

I couldn't disagree woth you more, Joel.
She's not 'fighting for the good side' but for evil. I suggest you find out a bit more about Hamas before you make a remark that's frankly absurd.
For instance, Hamas officially endorses the murder of all Jews worldwide, not just in Israel. Read it's official charter sometime. You agree with that agenda? I hope not.
As for her use of the Holocaust, it's not just hyperbole but rank Jew hatred. She is comparing Israel to the Nazis. My entire point here was to remind people of what a real Holocaust looks like. Trust me, if th eIsraelis were doing that, there wouldn't be a single Arab alive in Gaza today.
You seem to bleed compassion for only one side in this fight. Ever hear of what's going on in places like Sderot?
The people of Gaza,like those of the Palestinian occupied areas of Judea and Samaria(AKA the West Bank)elected Hamas to represent them them and endorsed their agenda. Elections have consequences, and if these people live miserably, they bear some responsibility.
There was absolutely nothing after Israel pulled out of Gaza to stop them or their governmnent from simply agreeing to live peacefully with their neighbor. THEY CHOSE NOT TO.
Hatred is added to the world in many ways, Joel...by actually committing the acts and by acquiesing to it passively.
Confronting evil doesn't add to it.
In that spirit, I ask you to stop adding to the hatred in the world by supporting it an dpassively encouraging it..

Thanks for your response Rob, alot of people would have ignored me.
After spending just a little time researching some of the things youve mentioned ive noticed my obvious mistakes and ask forgiveness for the things ive said.
The teachings ive recieved from my parents have led me to believe certain things are true, ive never challenged these ideas. Although, blaming others solves nothing, its my own ignorance thats led me to where I am.
I'm still not sure where I stand, but will continue to study and learn untill I know the truth (if the truth is even obtainable these days)
All I can really do is hope my age gives me some leniancy for my possible wrong doings, I'm only just becoming a man and begining to find my own path, instead of following the one placed infront of me.
If you could suggest any literature that may help me I would be very greatfull, but I have been rude and would not be offended if you refused.

Hi Joel,
And welcome to Joshua's Army.
Absolutely no problem, I understand what you're saying. The term 'Holocaust' is used a lot these days, especially by people who want to demonize Israel.
The only thing in modern times close to the Holocaust was the Armenian Genocide in 1915, because it was likewise perpetrated by an armed force against an unarmed civilian population with the idea not of simply driving them away or taking territory they held but by killing them simply because of whom they were.
Hitler himself made reference to this at the Wannasee council where the plans for the Holocaust were drawn up.When one of his subordinates expressed concern about whether the plan would work, Hitler replied: "Who remembers the Armenians nowadays?"
Here are a few books you might find interesting.
On the Holocaust, I recommend Lucy Dawidowicz's award winning "The War Against The Jews for a factual account of the Holocaust. I also recommend "The Scourge Of The Swastika" by Lord Russell of Liverpool, one of the Nuremburg prosecutors..if you can handle it.
For background on Israel and the Middle East, a great place to start is "From Time Immemorial" by Joan Peters.
Peters is a writer who originally won a pulitzer for her expose of the Klu Klux Klan an dwent to the Middle East intending to write a pro-Palestinian book on the refugee crisis. Once she started doing her research, she came up with something very different.Th ebook will tellk you how Israel and 'Palestine' came to be.
You might also want to do a search on JoshuaPundit in th e'search blog' section under 'two state solution'.There perhaps some food for thought there.
Thanks for dropping by.

Rob
Thank you for your help Rob, I apreciate it.
Am I right in thinking the Rwandan Genocide is similar? Apparently over 800,000 Tutsi's where killed by the Hutu power idealogy and its followers. It was designed simply to rid the world of all Tutsi's, man women and child, thats why it sounds similar to me, but I may be exagerating as I don't know how accurate that statistic really is.
I'll get down to the library and find these books, it seems there is more to this than ive been led to believe. They say the greatest trick of the devil is fooling the world into thinking he doesn't exist, he definately fooled me.
Thank You,
- Joel
Hi Joel,
Here's a key difference. The Rwandan genocide was an outgrowth of a tribal war, designed to take territory, life and property from another rival group in the same country and drive them out. Those Tutsis that fled the country were not pursued beyond Rwanda's borders, and the Hutu made no effort to invade neighboring countries to pursue the Tutsi or to persuade neighboring countries to turn their Tutsis over to them.
The Rwandan genocide is similar to the Armenian genocide in this regard.
During the Holocaust, the Germans concentrated on ingathering for the express purpose of genocide as a matter of national policy, and made attempts to get countries such as Finland that they did not occupy to turn over their Jews to them to be murdered.They also co-opted anti-Semitic locals in countries they occupied ( France, Ukraine,Poland, etc.) with varying degrees of success.
They were not merely trying to drive out a rival national group from their territory, but to exterminate a civilian population that posed absolutely no threat to them. And they devoted considerable manpower and resources to do it as a policy goal.
We've never really seen anything in history like it, and I hope we never do again.
Regards,
Rob
