Hitler was a man ... ( 1 month ago by John9Galt)

Hitler was a man for the Majority. He brought "the people" together and fought for "the common good". W/in a short period, he turned Germany from a country that was "broken" into one that could fight the entire world for a decade.This was the will of the majority-was it not? The rise of Nazism proves large groups of ppl can be manipulated(hence the danger of democracy), esp. combined with public education (that gives one source the control over how and what people are indoctrinated to think).

So, if your only ... ( 1 month ago by blakeada999)

So, if your only conclusion from the holocaust is that mass racism/extermination is bad, you're narrow-minded. If you think it proves white people/Germans are of a racist culture, and that we have to be careful it doesn't boil up again-you're an idiot. Persecution and mass hysteria have happened in all cultures and for strikingly similar reasons. It turns out human beings are more similar than we think.

So if ur only ... ( 1 month ago by blakeada999)

So if ur only conclusion from the holocaust is that we have to be careful not to be racist against Semetic ppl (or other ppl in general), u're avoiding some REAL sources of the problem (which is the politician's ability to bring the majority together to sacrifice others for the common good; the danger of inflation/a regulated economy-& the desperate lengths ppl will go to"solve"the problems it creates).Remember:U.S. Nazis/Communists competed during the Great Depression.TYRANNY of the Majority.

anti semitic does include arabs as well since they are semitic ppl or not? seams like the jews claim the term for themselves

"or not" is the ... ( 3 weeks ago by hanabluma)

"or not" is the answer. The term "anti-Semitism" was coined solely to describe Jews. In fact, it was coined PROUDLY, as the anti-Jewish movement was deemed worthwhile and respectable. Actually, the whole idea of Semites as a particular people is part of the racist movement that developed the Aryan idea as well.

Nazi Germany and ... ( 3 weeks ago by Tralgit)

Nazi Germany and Nazi muslims have the same goal; world domination. By force. They are the same cancer's and have to be fought the same way.

Anti Jewish was/has ... ( 3 weeks ago by Tralgit)

Anti Jewish was/has always been a part of the Roman Catholic church, until a few years ago there was a very anti Jewish sentiment in the Bible. Germans were always great on a "big leader "for all solutions. It goes with the mentality and background. Poland is another country of large anti semitic feelings, has all to do with RCC.

It's the same with Nazi Germany, it was only a small organisation but the German people went along with it and had to pay the price for that. So ONLY if they take an active stand against Nazi Muslims they have the right to speak out. So far I haven't heard anybody. They are just as guilty.

Why is Norman Finkelsteinnot allowed to teach?
Well he wrote "The Holocaust Industry" to start,& An unstated axiom for U.S. universities is that criticism of Israel by untenured faculty members is not allowed. Academic freedom protects critics of the national policies of the U.S., France, England, and every other country in the world, save one: Israel.Norman Finkelstein violated this axiom. Had he not been Jewish he would have been vilified successfully as anti-Semitic,
