I had a friend tell me over 15 years ago that that Israel wanted to eventually wipe out the Palestinians. He told me that they might use incendiaries or even directed energy weapons to do so.

Holocaust or Shoah?
Just recently I learned that holocaust translated to "burnt offering" and I thought, how sick are these people.

From: www.annefrank.org

The word ‘holocaust’ comes from ancient Greek and means ‘burnt offering’. Even before the Second World War, the word was sometimes used to describe the death of a large group of people, but since 1945, it has become almost synonymous with the murder of the European Jews during the Second World War. That's why we use the term 'the Holocaust'. Jews also refer to it with the word ‘Shoah’, which is Hebrew for 'catastrophe'.
