Pakistani Paper Implies Israelis Are Nazis.

For the last couple of years, you've been seeing anti-Israel journalists awkwardly inserting "blitz" both as a verb and a noun) into stories about Israel. It's kind of cute - anyone who complains about it seems like they're overreacting, but the implication is quite clear. The essence of plausible deniability:

Israeli blitz kills 18 in Gaza... Eighteen Palestinians, most of them women and children, were killed on Wednesday as Israeli shells slammed into their Gaza homes in an attack that drew worldwide condemnation and vows of renewed suicide attacks. The deaths prompted moderate Palestinian President Mahmud Abbas to accuse Israel of destroying peace hopes and rival Palestinian factions Hamas and Fatah to call for renewed suicide attacks. The United States called upon Palestinians to exercise restraint and avoid launching attacks inside Israel.

Here's the beauty of it. Right after the attack, Hamas explicitly and officially issued a statement calling for the eradication of Israel. But the Israelis are the ones who deserve to be compared to Nazis.

It's probably just very strong anti-Zionism. The seeming obsession for Nazism and Jews probably has nothing in any way to do with Nazism. Or Jews.
