Gotcha! I never said I approved. I said this was why they did it, and I see why they did it. Also it doesn't seem to be offending people within Estonia itself. (Possibly because the Jews got nudged out of there early in the 1900s well before Nazism could wreak its hell upon them there. That's how my grandfather got to America, by the way.)

That it is shortsighted and wrong in other ways, is undeniable.

No you did not; not is so many words. But you condoned.

It's like seeing a woman raped and expressing understanding of the rapist: his wife did not have enough sex with him, you see. That is what you did. You did not approve --- you condoned. So you can take that "gotcha" off the table.

and I see why they did it.

Yeh, more of the same. "You see, your honor, his wife only slept with him twice a week, and he needed it more often. Who would not rape under these circumstances. I can see why he did it."

Pathetic.

Ah, so only Jews may be offended? If Pol Pot was eliminating only his own people neither you nor I should find it abominable?

I don't think morality has ever been whitin a foot from you. Unless you yourself, your family or people are not victims you cannot find something immoral.

Amoral people always confuse morality with logic.

You should inquire of death camps in Estonia, served mostly by Estonian guards. Your grandfather is lucky.
