Obama condemns holocaust- predictably, National Review disagrees — Page 6

Yawper. insane or antisemite, or both?
both.

Yes, because by equating them, you diminish, belittle and excuse each and every one of them.

"Israelites wiping out tribes populating Canaan and laying claim to property 3,500 years ago really isn't any different than Nazis doing the same."

Oh dear. That statement says it all. You're twisted. It's a waste of time trying to discuss this with you if that's how you see things. Equating those two shows you don't know the first thing you're talking about. Or maybe you do know the difference but choose not to because of bigotry.

World War II has become a footnote to the "Holocaust."

This thread is gross.

Of course, coming from a, JC WS, hillbilly who posts and is a member of "STORMFRONT". (Colyer)!

Jane, PJ let's dump this thread.

I forgot why I was staying out of this thread.

Oh...the pain of memory.

That summation makes zero sense. Less than zero.

Okay, fools rush in...

I understand and appreciate pal joey's point that each atrocity is sui generis.

But is it realistic to expect human beings not to create categories of evil? Aren't our brains wired by evolution to make such comparisons? (I.e., some animals are good to eat, some animals will kill you, some plants are healing, some plants are poisonous, etc.)

That isn't to say we should construct such categories glibly (comparing, say, George W. Bush to Hitler).

But isn't there some value in recognizing that the conquest of Native Americans by Europeans was a systematic program of genocide not so very dissimilar to German efforts to rid their "lebensraum" of Jews and Slavs? At the very least such a comparison pushes back against the image we get from films and TV of "cowboys and Indians" as roughy matched and ethically equivalent foes.

No, Gaveston: "Bush (or anyone/thing) to Hitler" - hyperbole, perhaps. And whether you're conserv or lib, should never be used, imo.


"Israelites wiping out tribes populating Canaan and laying claim to property 3,500 years ago really isn't any different than Nazis doing the same." (Yawper - join JC WS on Stormfront, Okey dokey?)

Typical White Supremecist comment...like I haven't heard this BS a zillion times. Almost comical in it's uncreative ignorance.
