There is no doubt, that Hamas are animals, but innocent Palestinians are not and dehumanising humans makes it easier to justify mis-treatment.
Whilst comparisons between what actions Israel has undertaken and the actions of Nazi Germany are ludicrous and insulting, Israel should stop and take stock.
They had a valid and just reason to take action. They have now, I would assume, severely affected Hamas. They have clearly showed what they are capable of doing in response to any further future attack, either by Hamas or anyone else.
I think now is the time to stop, they retain the option to restart should they have to.
I also think Hamas need to release the remaining hostages.

Anyone carrying out similar alleged war crimes (on the same level as what Israel are doing in the occupied territories) on Jews with their politicians openly using the rhetoric of ethnic cleaning would absolutely and legitimately be compared with the Nazis. No-one would even pause to consider such a comparison as controversial.
Truth hurts I guess.
