The identifiable reason is that some Arabs are Israeli citizens. It doesn't keep them from being discriminated against in Israel but it means that they can no longer be kicked out of Israel. Of course none of them get back the land that was stolen from them. Correct. Some people manage to come and go. Again, you make it sound as if Gaza cannot be compare to a concentration camp if some people can leave, or if people aren't starving. https://www.nrc.no/news/2018/april/gaza-the-worlds-largest-open-air-prison/ Similar to the way Jews worked outside the camps. https://abcnews.go.com/International/detailed-hamas-secretly-crossed-israel/story?id=103917182 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaza_Strip#:~:text=Israel controls the Gaza Strip's,borders are heavily militarily fortified. Like many others, you seem to have reached a conclusion first then found arguments to support it. Whether or not Gaza precisely meets any given definition of a 'concentration camp', it seems clear to me that the people who make the comparison are not overreaching to any great extent.

Concentration camps were not first created by the Nazis, and there is much more to a concentration camp than lack of food. You cannot just say "If it didn't look like what happened in Nazi Germany then it isn't a concentration camp." https://www.lbi.org/exhibitions/virtual-exhibition-last-stop-before-the-last-stop/concentration-camps-existed-long-before-hitler-came-to-power/

You can act awfully childish for a person your age.

Thanks. Repeating yourself really cleared things up.

Wait. What?!?! Eyes, nerves, brains. The regular way.

I fear you lack a base level understanding of how the physical world works. Objective Permanence usually begins at about 8 months. https://www.whattoexpect.com/first-year/playtime/object-permanence-in-babies/

Of course there is. Dinosaurs existed even though no humans were there at the same time. How did the human mind come to be if there was nothing there from which they could have developed?

It's a shame you chose to ignore everything that everyone had to say.

I have this song on my iPhone, albeit a somewhat peppier version she did.

Soldiers deal with this issue all the time. They know there are foes out there heading in their direction who will try to kill them. They also know there are friends out there heading in their direction who will not try to kill them. I'm hopeful the soldiers are smart enough to identify their potential targets before pulling the trigger.

Is the universe at least 136 billion years old, is the universe not expanding at all, did the universe begin its expansion when Hubble measured its redshift for the first time or was light twice as fast 13.5 billion years ago than it is today?

Nice straw man. When you don't at least pretend to contemplate the responses you receive you paint yourself a troll. -
It gets very confusing when people edit out their mistakes after 10 people have already discussed the mistakes.

I suppose you could get a radar gun or a doppler radar system and use that as the basis of your test. -

There is no 'proof'. There is evidence that receding light sources redshift. -

Why not? We have evidence of both. -

Good question. Can you show evidence that when light changes direction its energy changes? -

Um, because there is no evidence of a "getting tired" effect? -
Then doing our duty kind of sucks given all the war, genocide, global warming, pollution, nuclear weapons, etc.
