Mumbai and Gaza atrocities are comparably criminal but incomparably scaled

Evidence

What happened in Mumbai, I repeat, was a criminal act perpetrated by a militant band of murderous adventurers, the distant echoes of seeds that US imperialism had sown in Afghanistan and Pakistan as a way to confront the Soviet in the 1980s. What has happened in Gaza is an infinitely more criminal act (by the scale of violence and the number of innocent human beings murdered, burned, maimed, and crippled) perpetrated by a genocidal colonial settlement called Israel, the last remnant of European racism in the region. — Hamid Dabashi, Brown Skin, White Masks, 557
