Hitler wasn 't the first to commit genocide on the Jews. Anti-semitism is deeply rooted in Western societies. Take the example of Spain and the Spanish Inquisition. As soon as the so-called Catholic Kings had reconquered Granada, the last Muslim stronghold in Spain (end 15th century), they created a State-controlled Inquisition. Especially the 'conversos', the Jews converted to christianity, were their target. Inquisitors looked scrutinously at remains of Judaic identification within the conversos.
Anti-semitism grew so bad that in the end all Jews fled Spain, which meant a heavy loss of human and cultural capital for Spain.

  • ah, nothing can express my love for jesus more than brutally impaling the guts of a heretic.

  • @blackmetal631 no, it is you who needs to wake up, there is no random coincidence, everybody has a purpose in life, but some like you dedicate themselves to bring hope and joy to the ground, religion will never die

  • @Axxess7777

    Before I even read this comment, it was obvious that a Jew would be behind this.

  • Jewish propaganda.

  • Wake the fuck up humans. god and Satan does not exist damnn! Stop with the fucking fairy tales you stupid religions.

  • @TheSacredHeart2 It was necessary to torture and Kill people for the church...I sometimes think you people, if given the chance, would be in the happy crowd cheering on the death of so-called heretics today. God bless the separation of church and state! May the dark days of Catholic tyranny NEVER return! Do you even pause to realize there is no such thing as magic and witchcraft and innocent people were MURDERED because they were accused of being witches? The gates of HELL are waiting for you!

  • @102163srj : This blood thirsty hating Jew you have sitting at the Vatican was in charge of the FILE of the HOLY OFFICE? If you don't know what this is all about, Google it....and you might learn something about your hideous Roman Religion.

  • The anti Christ is here.

  • The Spanish Inquisition is the most misunderstood period in history. Everyone talks about how bad it was but nobody can give an honest answer on how many people were executed as a result of the Inquisition. Historians estimate that the Inquisition executed 5-7 people a year, less than the state of TX currently does.
