I walked down the street in Barcelona, and suddenly discovered a terrible truth – Europe died in Auschwitz. We killed six million Jews and replaced them with 20 million Muslims. In Auschwitz we burned a culture, thought, creativity, and talent. --- We destroyed the Chosen People, truly chosen, because they produced great and wonderful people who changed the world. --- The contribution of this people is felt in all areas of life: science, art, international trade, and above all, as the conscience of the world. --- These are the people we burned. --- And under the pretense of tolerance, and because we wanted to prove to ourselves that we were cured of the disease of racism, we...

What’s this “we” stuff? I agree in general with his proposition, but “we” didn’t kill 6 million Jews, the Nazis did.
It’s an important distinction, because the liberal element would have everybody assume guilt for every harm done, and this one simply doesn’t fit.
The Jewish citizens murdered in the death camps were - by and large - among the best educated, hardest working, most innovative and productive citizens of Europe.
The guest workers who flooded into Europe after the war were not taking the place of citizens of that quality - they were taking the place of the menial workers who died as footsoldiers and buck privates in that bloody war, as well as taking the place of the children Europeans decided not to have.
I too, noticed it was not an updated list. There was one Islamist who undeservedly got a Nobel Peace Prize, not on the list.

“What’s this ‘we’ stuff?”
The writer is from a country that, while officially neutral in WWII, supported the Third Reich.
Europe has a long, sordid history of antisemitism. It wasn’t just the Germans.
Not only 6 million Jews, but generations of Alpha males of the British and Germans in WW1 and WW2.
Tragic, but true. Good article. Thanks much. Bob
True, but “we” did stand by and let it happen for too long before the Japs forced us to get off our duff and enter the war. FDR ignored report after report and did nothing, just as “we” have chosen to do in Darfur, Rwanda, etc.
GREAT point. Maybe WWII is the reason that Europe is populated by educated legions with no common sense. Bob
One word... Randolph Hurst!
He failed to report the truth.
That is why “we” are to blame.
Stalin sent 20million Russians to their deaths in the camps, and lost another 15million in WWII, in which the Germans lost at least 5 million and the Italians 1 Million.
Two generations of European men were wiped out in war.
The darkest places in hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality in times of moral crisis. —Dante Alighieri—
We are not God. It is not within our responsibility or capacity to save the world. We should worry about saving ourselves.
Luke 10:25-37 - Go and do likewise.
So explain when exactly you believe America should have meccano involves in WWII in Europe? We waited until it began to affect us and we were attacked by their partner Japan.
I know it causes a case of the vapors among Europeans, but everything they do is not a default interest of the USA.
As much blood, treasure, and cultural damage we expended for them in the last 90 years,, we should actually govern Europe.
that is # become# involved in WWII in Europe (danged droid and old eyes)

There you go, DryFly. The "selfishness is righteousness" contingent on FR has spoken.
I’m not advocating any specific action on any specific timeline. My point was that knowing inaction has consequences just as action does. We can’t engage in inaction and then carry on as if we have a clear collective conscience when that inaction leads to catastrophic consequences.
