It looks to me like this is a "Master Race", oppressing a "Slave
Race", and a Slave Territory. It is interesting that a people who
historically were the oppressed in the past are now the oppressor in
the present, but not of those who oppressed them, but of a third
party, who in the past did not harm the present oppressor. The
Oppressor evidently learned nothing from their past experiences.

It calls into question their lamentations and accusations regarding
the Germans and other Europeans in the past. Perhaps their actions
now, prove that their treatment in the past was not really uncalled
for, since they have now become their past oppressor, and
enthusiastically practice all the mean things that they accuse the
Europeans of doing in the past.

This view is strengthened by the oppressor's wanton random shooting
and killing the Slave children, the humilliating check points, and
restriction of movement, and the unprovoked incursion of tanks to
destroy the Slave race's dwellings, orchards, and all that.

Perhaps, Karmically, the present Palestenians were in the past, The
Pharoah and his people in ancient Egypt?

Or perhaps it points up the "Wisdom" that one becomes that which one
concentrates on, and their concentration on the Nazis and their
behavior, has made them become the present day Nazis.
