Myth 1: - Gaza a humanitarian crisis and a concentration camp

The sister-in-law of former British prime minister Tony Blair has called Gaza a "concentration camp" and a "humanitarian crisis on the scale of Darfur."
Journalist and activist Lauren Booth was being interviewed by left-wing anti-Israel activist George Galloway on Press TV, an Iranian English-language 24-hour news channel based in London, earlier this month.

I want to say thank you for using the word concentration camp because the word prison has been applied in the last few years and that's a lie. In a prison you get three meals a day, a nourishing diet, visits from outsiders and some hobbies and rehabilitation and a date for your release," she said.


Fact: - see for yourself

1. Darfur - A real concentration camp and humanitarian crisis


2. Gaza - Iftar Ramadan feast in Lauren Booth's "concentration camp".


3. Lauren Booth shopping in a computerised, well stocked grocery store in Gaza (surely citizens of Darfur would give anything to enjoy this type of "humanitarian disaster".

I remember a few years ago,while I was in Nigeria,I was listening to the BBC World Service on radio and there was a story on Palestine. As usual,it was about the everyday tribulations of Palestinians under "Israeli occupation".  The Palestinian began his moan by mentioning that things were so bad,electricity and water was running only about 12-15 hours a day.

Electricity and water running only 12-15 hours a day? There I was in pitch black darkness, thanks to NEPA, and only access to water is a self-provided borehole, and the Palestinian people's comparatively far less difficulties is given such saturated media coverage. 

In many parts of Africa,people are starving to death,yet you see a constant stream of obese Palestinians on TV talking about Israeli atrocities.

Seems the originator of this thread is sad that the situation in Palestine has not gotten as bad as what you have in Sudan.
