Document:British Jewish Zionist MP Gerald Kaufman says Israel acting like Nazis in Gaza	Speech	Israel Gaza Palestine Hamas Fatah Israeli–Palestinian conflict 2023-2025 Israel-Hamas War	January 2009	Gerald Kaufman	"However many Palestinians the Israelis murder in Gaza, they cannot solve this existential problem by military means. It is time for peace, but real peace, not the solution by conquest which is the Israelis' real goal but which it is impossible for them to achieve. They are not simply war criminals; they are fools."
