Doctor claims boat people on Nauru are worse off than Holocaust victims

An Australian Medical Association (AMA) official has compared the lives of boat people on Nauru to those who died in gas chambers during the Holocaust.

Doctor Paul Bauert says people living in offshore processing centres are worse off than Jewish people killed in Nazi gas chambers during World War II.

“Even those that finally knew that they were about to be condemned to the gas chamber at least found some sense of relief in knowing what was happening.” – Dr Paul Bauert

The comments have outraged many, including Ben Fordham who can hardly believe his ears.

“Is he really comparing those who have escaped other countries and are living on Narau to those who were gassed to death?”

Well, he said it, and Ben is slamming the doctor for his outrageous claims.
