All over the world, any questions or challenges to anything that large numbers of Muslims assert, and anything that is considered offensive to Islam, and even to jihadists such as Hamas, is an unpardonable offense.
Hamas is a jihadist wing of the Muslim Brotherhood, and the Brotherhood’s influence worldwide is a key reason why the group is not being scrutinized nor held to accountability. The Muslim Brotherhood has infiltrated every society and holds voting power, even in America, thanks to Biden and others. The Trump administration, meanwhile, is apparently working to find ways to curb the Muslim Brotherhood’s influence.
What is so difficult to understand about the catastrophic outcome of using human shields, as Hamas did? The Gaza war cannot be compared to the Holocaust. The latter was based on pure hatred of Jews and involved the genocide of six million people. The war against Hamas is aimed at rooting out the threat to the very existence of the Jewish state of Israel, which is going beyond all other military forces in recent times in preventing civilian casualties. The truth is that antisemites and supporters of the red-green axis are protecting Hamas operatives.
Israel — the target of the jihad — gets unjustifiable blame, while to question Palestinian and Muslim Brotherhood propaganda comes with a price that Juliet Newell had to pay. Yet it is better for anyone with a sense of justice to pay a price now than to face what will happen if the jihad is allowed to progress.
“South African interviewer fired for challenging comparison of Gaza war to Holocaust,” by Zev Stub, Times of Israel, September 2, 2025:
A South African television presenter has been fired after she challenged an interviewee who compared Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza to the Holocaust. The dismissal drew outrage from Jerusalem’s Yad Vashem Holocaust museum and from the local Zionist federation.
The South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) said Friday that Juliet Newell would be removed from its broadcasting schedule after she asked Mamphela Ramphele, the chair of the Desmond Tutu IP trust, about a statement by the trust comparing Israel’s military operation to Nazi actions against Jews in the concentration camps during World War II.
In the interview aired Friday, Newell, who doesn’t have a record of advocating for Israel, calmly asked Ramphele if she didn’t think her statement likening the famine in Gaza to the Holocaust was “provocative.”
“What provocative? It is a holocaust,” Ramphele answered.
“But how can you compare them?” Newell countered.
Ramphele responded: “It is a holocaust by any definition if you look at the deliberate attack on children, on women, on unarmed citizens, and the starvation, using starvation as a weapon of war. Tell me… how different it is?”….

The main culprit here is not Islam, malevolent as it is, but what has happened to the West in the past half century or so and as exampled here, i.e., it has gone into complete stupid, masochistic, self-flagellation mode.
The Islamic world is absolutely delighted by this, as are your standard authoritarian polities like North Korea, Russia (N.B., Russia is not a Western nation; it has aspects of Westernism but this does not add up to it being Western) and China.
Only the West and those not Western but guided by Western principles, examples being South Korea, Taiwan and Japan, hold out hope for the world. But the West is descending from within due to the monumental idiocy of Leftism and thus mankind is in huge trouble, arguably more than ever and making something like the collapse of the western half of the Roman Empire in the 5th century AD looking more and more like nothing more than a temporary setback.
I’m not kidding here. The West is in monumental trouble and people like Trump and some leading a few Eastern European nations have become a kind of last redoubt for Western Civilization in our time. And even Trump and Orban of Hungary are arguably a bit too friendly with the Islamic sphere of mankind. Much trouble ahead I fear for the best of mankind because if the West goes then mankind descends into the pit—count on it.

Wellington,
A very true – but very sobering – post.
Islam could be very effectively marginalized if it were not for Western leftism.
OLD GUY says
100% correct, and I’d include the cash flow from Islamic states.

South Africa is one of the most anti-Israel countries in the world, and it shows here, too.

Grimly true.

She should have known that as an interviewer she is not supposed to ask any questions. Her job was to vomit out leftist gobbledygook and leave it at that.

South Africa: Interviewer fired for challenging comparison of Gaza war to Holocaust
……………………………………………….
Good for Juliet Newell for challenging this grotsque claim–her being fired is grotsque.

“.As of 2025, the world’s core Jewish population was estimated at 15.8 million,
which is approximately 0.2% of the 8 billion worldwide population.”
now, why is the world so obsessed with Jews and Israel?

She should go independent, start her own podcast and/or channels on YouTube & Rumble, and continue to speak out on various issues – be it South African antisemitism, genocide of Boers & other Whites, their mismanaged economy & so on. It’s the 2020s: she doesn’t have to be dependent on some authorized TV channel
