And when we're talking "blood libels," what else can one call Krauthammer's obscene, if implicit, indictment of christianity for the holocaust...........

Wake up kiddo. You think Christianity, for centuries calling Jews Christ killers, didn't lay the groundwork for it? Didn't set the stage for the Holocaust? The Holocaust took place on a Christian continent called Europe. And we are in Iraq to take care of Islamic extremism, Islamic sanctuaries for terror, and to secure MidEast oil. Israel is happy we got rid of Saddam Hussein but that's not why we went into Iraq.

But that history is largely absent from the United States.

How does Christian-Jewish conflict "lay the groundwork" for the Holocaust? This is the sheerest bigotry. It is a lie. There is absolutely no linkage. There were religious frictions which are common to all people everywhere. The Jews are no less hostile to Arabs than Christians were to Jews. But they do not commit genocide. The Holocaust was sui generis--and it is a libel against Christianity to say otherwise.
