Battle For The Holocaust - Henry Kissinger, Norman Finkelstein, Peter Novick (Part 3/6)

Channel 4's Battle for the Holocaust, broadcast on Britain's first official Holocaust Memorial Day, raises controversial questions about how the world perceives the Nazi extermination. In this programme, Jewish historians look at how our understanding of the Holocaust has changed in the five decades since the end of the Second World War and ask whose agenda is being served by the proliferation of museums, memorials and commemoration events.

Well said lady.."This kind of morality I don't buy..it's too cheap!

Perfect.

And Finkelstein:

.'Whether or no the Holocaust has been used as an ideological weapon to bludgeon critics of Israel and later critics of American Jewry into silence and secondly whether or not the Holocaust has become an extortion racket?"

Fucking brilliant..absolutely brilliant. And unfortunately..TRUE.

The 'problem' is that people dislike Jews as a group for rational reasons; it isn't just a mental illness endemic to non-Jews, a notion Jews delude themselves into believing as well as propagandize endlessly, nor is it a product of Christian anti-Semitism only.

Moreover, it's the Jews who are fixated on deconstructing everyone else's ethnic, national and cultural identities as dangerous myths.

Their myths, of course, are OK. Because Yahweh loves them and them only.

I think it is a case of victims becoming worse than their former demonizers. History is rife with examples.

@heiminator2 unfortunately it wont stop even when all the jews move 2 israel. anti zionism is just the new form of antisemitism. while i agree that at times the holocaust was used as a political card, i really dont think that israel needs 2 justify everything it does, because as an independant country it must stop making lame excuses 4 everything it does. every country tries doing whatever is in their best interest, israel isno excepton. the world must except that and so must israel

@PhillyUsed2BLiberty heres another antisemite! blame the jews 4 all the problems in the world, y not? weve been blamed 4 capitalism AND communism. how was the bolshivik movement jewish? the fact that there were a few jews? there were a few jews in everything back then! in case u didnt realize they were everywhere in the world! mainly in europe, but that ended with the holocaust. and r u suggesting that dollars r being killed? so how about u check ur facts b4 u post them u fucking prick bigot

@HasbaraMatata "The 'problem' is that people dislike Jews as a group for rational reasons" I think thats a bit of exageration.

[PhillyUsed2BLiberty]

How about the 60 million Christian Eastern Europeans killed by the Jewish Bolsheviks?

Never a word about that ha?

Or how about the present Holocaust against the Palestinians? The slow motion genocide that's been going on w/ US tax dollars for 60 years now?

Not a word on that ha?

Bunch of hypocrites!

normans mother was as honest as a day is long, as is he, but then every jew that spoke there true mind is run into the ground.

To God we are all ecqual in his eyes hes no respetor of persons. Jews are no better than me. Like this lady says they 1rst called thereselfs survivers then marders then holy=saperior. Saying there better than me. See this is a way for people to feel sorry for them. And for the people to say well since you people had it so bad its ok for you to have control of us we owe it to you after all your better than me your a jew im a goyim. They will keep useing this holocaust victom thing until the end!

[heiminator2]

@sssssjjjj1 well, although i have no clue about the whole wiretapping and cheating, murdering part, it is quite understandable for me to see that if a group of people is subject to hate (hint hint) that there has to be a counter-reaction to it. Humans have human rights because there are people who violate them, jews have jewish organizations because there a lot of antisemites out there, and i guess that wont stop until all of them move to Israel, as i think you just proved.

[sssssjjjj1]

Can't you see people.They are insane.They are terrible people.Do other races have organizations that are all over the world just waiting for someone to even say something insensitive toward them to sue them or worse.They lie cheating and murdering they now bug, wiretap, spy on us. rothschilds base money to steal info on stocks, insider trades and have judges placed in the highest places, they have bought the judicial legislative and exec branch of every country on earth robbing the people blind.
