Hi all, perhaps the most amazing piece on the Gaza massacre -- particularly given the source. Henry Siegman was for years director of the American Jewish Congress, and one of the most influential leaders of the US pro-Israel movement. For Henry Siegman to compare Israeli policies to those of the Nazis, even though he appropriately recognizes they are not identical, is stunning. We should get this around to every member of Congress.
