You sound like a multiculturalist. Everyone and every culture was and is the same. No absolute good or evil.

Jews got a lot of affirmative action. That must be those quotas they had in universities. Numerus clausus.

Not a cultural relativist at all. The primary point was just that there is a lot of distorted history. If you haven’t read the Morera article, you might find it interesting.

The secondary point was that every group has been victimized at some time or other and has also victimized others. That doesn’t mean that all groups are equivalent. Mohammedans, for example, have victimized far more than they have been victims (I’m excluding the ways in which Mohammedans have victimized themselves.). Armenians, to take a relatively uncontroversial example, have generally been far more victimized than victimizers.
