While they weren't quite so evil as the Ukrainians who jumped at the chance to join the SS and Einsatzgruppen to exterminate Jews, the Poles to this day, when they talk about Polish deaths in WW2 generally exclude those of the Polish Jews. <br /><br />Two of Walter Laqueur's books: "The Terrible Secret" and "The Changing Face of Antisemitism" are remarkable for the richness of content he includes carefully documenting the extent to which antisemitism was open and prevalent, and in many cases, government policy and law in Europe since 1850, and in the former book, the extent to which intelligence and media services in WW2 went to ignore, downplay and cover up the Holocaust. <br /><br />Note: Laqueur is not an easy read. He's more of an archivist than an historian. His books are essentially several hundred pages of lists and footnotes with little to no historical analysis or interpretation. <br />Empress Trudyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06073538968722986065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579213173749170024.post-62916953767638096022013-09-22T13:16:21.751-07:002013-09-22T13:16:21.751-07:00There is a recent uptick.

Every time Israel agrees to discuss the possibility of peace they increase the violence against us.<br /><br />Nonetheless, Arab-Muslim violence toward the Jewish minority has been more or less consistent since that Muhammed fellow starting killing us in Saudi Arabia.<br /><br />Every generation they tell one another that they have a good reason to want to see us dead.<br /><br />This generation is no different except now the Jews of the Middle East have the IDF and, thus, the means to protect themselves.<br /><br />I very much hope that they do so.Mike L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06450806807610560873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579213173749170024.post-78684303211708051072013-09-22T12:03:49.216-07:002013-09-22T12:03:49.216-07:00"Palestinian Groups Calling For Violence This..."Palestinian Groups Calling For Violence This Coming Weekend<br /><br />Posted by: Judge Dan in Judge Dan September 22, 2013 1 Comment 48 Views<br /><br />This weekend, 13 years ago, the 2nd intifada was ignited.<br /><br />Online groups are calling for violence and riots to mark the occasion, in all the big cities in Judea and Samaria, and Jerusalem.

How else do you explain Jew hatred in a place like Belgium or Sweden with a total Jewish population of 45,000 out of a combined total total population of 20.5 million or ZERO point 22 percent. If someone walked around screaming about Sami-Laplanders' plot to take over the world we would all agree they are paranoid nutcases.Empress Trudyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06073538968722986065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579213173749170024.post-24715912354801182962013-09-22T09:03:14.579-07:002013-09-22T09:03:14.579-07:00And seeing how Spain's economy is terrible and...And seeing how Spain's economy is terrible and the unemployment rate for college educated under 30 is close to 40% one heaves a sigh of relief that there aren't very many Jews in Spain any more. There would be another Kristallnacht if there were. Al Beeb sounds hysterical when they count 'nearly 50,000 Jews' but most other sources are <40,000. In 2012 when Spain seemed to offer citizenship to descendants of Jews thrown out in 1492 the Muslims and far left had spasms of anger claiming...of course that the Jews would soon dominate all banks, media and the government. To be honest I can't think of a single reason why anyone would want to repatriate themselves to Spain.Empress Trudyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06073538968722986065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579213173749170024.post-60172138267562078522013-09-21T23:15:22.444-07:002013-09-21T23:15:22.444-07:00I'll check it out, School.
