You realize you're not obligated to reply something to every single paragraph, yes? Legolas Send a noteboard - 06/05/2016 08:30:36 PM

I have to admit I just skimmed a lot of it, even before you started nitpicking imperfect phrasings when you couldn't find a comment on the content.

To comment on the more serious points, though - if the comment about practicing Christians is supposed to refer to the contemporary US or any other Western countries, it's absurd and more than a little insulting to compare that to the treatment of Jews during, with a number of exceptions in time and place, most of European history up to the end of WW2. If it referred to Pakistan, Saudi Arabia or ISIS territory, well, fair enough.

The Nazis were an extreme case of course - though since they controlled most of Europe at the time, saying 'one aberrant state' is a bit misleading - but it's not like most other countries in Europe were very eager to receive the Jews. You'll note that I did not present the 'needed a state of their own' thing as a fact, nor said that I agreed with it - I'm merely saying it was the understandable belief held by many, not all, Holocaust survivors.
