Korchak is right -

“You’re not doing this in front of a bunch of Jews outside Auschwitz. Walk away,” Korchak answered, adding that talking about the Palestinian deaths was like talking about the German death toll in World War II.

Auschwitz is NOT the place for a discussion about modern day Palestine. Who knows what that girl was saying after she walked away. For all we know . . . she was there to point and laugh in the spirit of the banality of evil.

Then again - I think Dresden was effective so there's that. I'll see myself out now . . .
