Why is the Jewish community in America not speaking out against the concentration camps America is operating?

Question

Now we have been made aware that more than one concentration camp exists run by Americans. Why are these camps not on American soil and what will it take for the Jewish community to speak out against this abuse of civil and human rights. If another country decided to put Jews in a similar camp would this now be no longer seen to be anything wrong. Why is it that arabs being treated as the Nazis treated the jews now right

Answer 1

Well, first I am curious as to why, if these concentration camps exist, you think only the Jews should be speaking out?
Secondly, they are not concentration camps, they are military prisons stationed offshore.This way the Bushies feel they don't have to follow the legalities they would have to if they were within the US proper.
As far as I am aware, there are no ovens, forced labor, medical experiments or starvation being inflicted on the prisoners there.
That being said, they are denied access to legal counsel to answer charges that are not waged in an effort to keep them incarcerated. This goes against our values, justice system and seriously handicaps our moral high ground, if indeed we ever had it in this war. If the government has evidence and charges against these detainees, they need to bring them or let them go. If they are found guilty, they should stay in prison. If the evidence against them is not enough to warrant holding them, they should be released.
We cannot tout our superiority to other nations when the only people benefiting from them are just our own citizens. Our Bill of Rights and Constitution should apply to every person in the world." We hold these truths to be self evident....." should apply to everyone. Everyone should have their day in court and not be forced to wait for what may be years to be heard, if at all.That is why there is a time frame in which accused persons must be charged or set free in our wonderful country. The standards we set for our own citizens should apply to everyone. The offshore prisons are just another underhanded and sneaky way of circumventing our law, a tactic the Bush Administration is seemingly adept with.

Answer 2

Concentration camps as in Nazi Germany, is that what you mean? Let me enlighten you on the difference. German camps imprisoned innocent people and used them as slaves, and got rid of them in gas ovens. They did nothing wrong the only reason this happened to them was because they were Jewish. The Muslims that are in camps are fed three meals, allowed their Koran, prayer rugs, do not work for their keep and are enemies of the United States. They attack, and injure the military guards. They throw human feces at them, urine and spit on them. They belong where they are the Jewish people did not belong in concentration camps. Have any of the AlQuaida prisoners ever been beheaded?Two of our military men have. Get your facts straight before you ask such a question.

Answer 3

Because the slogan "Never Forget" seems to have been manipulated by Zionists to only apply to Jewish people. Although, many many Jewish people do speak out against it - Norman Finkelstein, Noam Chomsky, Seymour Hersh broke the story in the New Yorker (c'mon)...
Many Jews also speak out about the horrid, racist policies of Israel and the land theft, the humiliating checkpoints, the assasinations, the home demolitions, the wanton killing of children... They speak out against Israel's state terrorism all the time.

The Media just silences such dissent because war and destruction means more bullets, tanks and bulldozers that US corporations can sell these criminals.

Answer 4

Jews say nothing because they like to see the Arabs get treated like animals as the Arabs have treated the Jew.

Answer 5

You're a moron.
The Jews were run out of their homes and businesses because they were seen as a "pest" by Nazi Germany.
The Arabs being rounded up are being seized from battlefields for taking up arms against American military. We're not sytematically storming their houses and taking EVERY Arab and Muslim prisoner; just the ones who take up arms against us.

How dare you insult the memory of millions of dead Jews by reducing their plight to some penny-ante political point-mongering.
Jagoff.

Answer 6

There's a difference between prisons and concentration camps.

Answer 7

"the Arabs are being treated the way the Jewish were by the Nazis"

you need to go to your nearest library and ask for a book so you can refresh your understanding of the holocaust.

Last time I heard those terrorists were being fed and not being put in gas chambers and then in ovens.

Answer 8

They are detention centres for people who committed terrorist activities. They are not being killed as the Jews were. Also the Jews were innocent when they were killed by the Nazis.

Answer 9

So have ya gotten the reaction you wanted yet?As you can clearly read from these responses here that we are not ******* off the turnip truck pal!You need to research more facts on both issues ,maybe then you will see the vast differences in the two ...Thanks for your opinion though ridiculous as it is, we all have one too!

The only ones I know about involved native Americans more than a century ago and the Japanese interment camps during WW 2.
