Not that I'm defending Israel or anything - they are clearly occupying land they shouldn't... With the possible exception of slavery, not other race has faced something like the holocaust. If something like that happened to Americans, we would be fanatical mother fuckers for the next 100 years too.

Oh come on, there have been numerous campaigns of genocide, mass murder and enslavement throughout history from ancient times up to the modern era that were equal to or greater then the Holocaust of WW2. The ancient Israelites themselves completed a campaign of genocide against the Canaanites as evidenced in grim detail in the Bible itself. Then you have plenty more in more recent times- the Europeans nearly depopulated the entire native population of millions in North and South America when they "discovered" the New World in the middle ages due to disease and genocide.
The Japanese raped, tortured and killed far more Chinese in WW2 than Germans did everyone put together. Stalin's pogroms and campaigns of mass murder during and after WW2 also dwarf the Holocaust. The Turks genocide of the Armenians during and after WW1. There are numerous more examples.
