All European life died in Auschwitz

By Sebastian Vilar Rodrigez

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, 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 opened our gates to 20 million Muslims, who brought us stupidity and ignorance, religious extremism and lack of tolerance, crime and poverty due to an unwillingness to work and support their families with pride.

They have turned our beautiful Spanish cities into a third world, drowning in filth and crime. Shut up in the apartments they receive free from the government, they plan the murder and destruction of their naive hosts. And thus, in our misery, we have exchanged culture for fanatical hatred, creative skill for destructive skill, intelligence for backwardness and superstition.

We have exchanged the pursuit of peace of the Jews of Europe and their talent for hoping for a better future for their children, their determined clinging to life because life is holy, for those who pursue death, for people consumed by the desire for death for themselves and others, for our children and theirs. What a terrible mistake was made by miserable Europe.

All American Patriots must pay attention and come together or they will eventually lose their great country as well. Spain has gradually allowed their country to be absorbed by liberal polices, ideals and a permissiveness that presented the current dilemma.

Recently I have come to believe that anti-Semitism is a mental disorder. Every anti-Semite I have met was sick in the head, in one way or another.

............

In my view as a historian, it is so peculiar that it deserves to be placed in a quite different category. I would call it an intellectual disease, a disease of the mind, extremely infectious and massively destructive. It is a disease to which both human individuals and entire human societies are prone.

Conflicts will occur when one thinks that "mine is better then yours"

Are you contending that all cultures are equal, or just that we should pretend they are all equal?

[Obie Wan]

Truly a bad choice,but in general people of the world have always been more comfortable with satans people then they have been with Gods people regardless of the consequences !!!

"I used to work for a Jewish doctor whose family left Czechoslovakia in 1939 and moved to England."

This the same doctor you used to work for who made up the story ?

Did he also make up the "hitler studied islam in the trenches" story ?

No one who could say, "I have always been a Jew and never claimed to be anything else" was touched by the Inquisition.

I actually believe that they had their property confiscated and they were expelled from Catholic Spain.  The Spanish were reacting to several hundred years of oppression by the Muslim conquerers and looked at any non-Catholic as a threat.

This is from a web page at Fordham University:

In the spring of 1492, shortly after the Moors were driven out of Granada, Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain expelled all the Jews from their lands and thus, by a stroke of the pen, put an end to the largest and most distinguished Jewish settlement in Europe. The expulsion of this intelligent, cultured, and industrious class was prompted only in part by the greed of the king and the intensified nationalism of the people who had just brought the crusade against the Muslim Moors to a glorious close. The real motive was the religious zeal of the Church, the Queen, and the masses. The official reason given for driving out the Jews was that they encouraged the Marranos to persist in their Jewishness and thus would not allow them to become good Christians.

"Are you contending that all cultures are equal, or just that we should pretend they are all equal?"

Neither - I don't dwell very much on "ranking" cultures -

Did the Romans, Egyptians or Virginians have a "better" culture then the people they enslaved ?

[Phsstpok]

In any case most of the forced conversions took place well before Isabella during a period of riots in the 1350s. And it was not a government sponsored action either, but a spontaneous serious of peasant revolts which had to be put down by royal troops.

What are you talking about?  Wasn't Spain ruled mostly by the Muslims in the 1350s?  Ferdinand and Isabella were the first Spanish Royalty to rule "Spain" in several hundred years, uniting the country and kingdoms with their marriage not long before Columbus' little boat trip.  There were small Christian kingdoms in the northern part of the country, always at the mercy of the much stronger Moors, who ruled central and southern Spain for around 700 years.

There certainly may have been the riots and forced Christianization that you speak of, but they would have been in reaction to living in the shadow of Jihad.  Ya ain't paranoid if they really are out to kill (or convert) you.

Context matters.

[Monti Cello]

You made the claim that all cultures have changed the world for the better. To make that statement surely you must have some ground on judging what is 'better'. You set up a basis for cutural evaluation on the one hand with that statement, and then deny the concept entirely with your following statements.

We will have to go into war side by side along Israeli armies. the jewish people will not perish..

it is our destiny to defend them. We cannot allow our selves to stand by while another holocaust is in the works. We cannot stand by and watch the middle east go up in flames because of this Iranian whackjob.. whom everyone in the world scene seems to disregard and appease as they did Hitler.. until he came knocking to their door.

[RS]

"You set up a basis for cutural evaluation on the one hand with that statement, ..."

Nope - I said the world was better, I did not make any such comparision between cultures.

Unless you consider the world in total as a "culture" - I don't.

[Fish_Keeper]

Some, but not all, conversos changed their family name to something more Catholic-sounding.
There are still some with their original names. For instance, Perez is a common Hispanic surname with Sephardic Jewish origins.

Undeniable

We originally posted this cartoon on February 8 just after the announcement of Iran's holocaust cartoon contest. This week an exhibit of the cartoons opened in Tehran.

From FoxNews: Iran Unveils Holocaust Cartoon Exhibit.

An exhibition of more than 200 cartoons about the Holocaust opened Monday as Iran's response to last year's Muslim outrage over a caricature of the Prophet Muhammad in a Danish newspaper.

The display, showing 204 entries from Iran and abroad, was strongly influenced by the views of Iran's hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who drew widespread condemnation last year for calling the Holocaust a "myth" and saying Israel should be destroyed.

One cartoon by Indonesian Tony Thomdean shows the Statue of Liberty holding a book on the Holocaust in its left hand and giving a Nazi-style salute with the other. ...

Hamshahri said it wanted to test the West's tolerance for drawings about the Nazi killing of 6 million Jews in World War II. The entries on display came from nations including United States, Indonesia and Turkey.

From Reuters: Iran seeks to test taboos with Holocaust cartoons.

"We wanted to challenge European taboos. Why should questioning the Holocaust be a taboo?" ... said [Masoud Shojai-Tabatabai, head of the Cartoon House which helped organise the exhibition]. "Why should anyone who talks about it (the Holocaust) be fined or jailed?"

It is a crime in European countries such as Germany and Austria to deny the Holocaust. ...

"After the Holocaust was questioned by the president, now I have real doubts about it," said Maryam Zadkani, a 23-year-old graphic artist as she wandered around the exhibition.

"I came here to see what other cartoonists around the world think about the Holocaust."

UPDATE: From the Jerusalem Post: 'Silence begets evil actions'.

Yad Vashem on Tuesday deplored the "alarming silence" of most of the world in the face of repeated Iranian genocidal threats against the Israel, warning that the Islamic republic represents a danger to all enlightened nations.

"The alarming silence of the world indicates that the West has not yet understood that what is taking place is an attack on Western values and civilization," said Yad Vashem Chairman Avner Shalev.

"History has demonstrated that silence in the face of evil statements begets evil actions," he added.

EVIL MAN...

Did the Romans, Egyptians or Virginians have a "better" culture then the people they enslaved ?

The Greeks did. In the ancient world they were ahead of everybody else when it came to political development, technology, science, philosophy, military skill--the list goes on. That's why they were able to triumph against larger civilizations like Persia, and older ones like Egypt. Since those days, however, they have fallen greatly. Modern Greece hasn't amounted to much, and mainly seems preoccupied with getting the Turks out of Cyprus; some Greeks even think that space aliens, and not their ancestors, built ancient monuments like the Acropolis. I also hear that anti-Semitism is quite common in modern Greece; coincidence?

[Berosus]

Judging from what I have seen of anti-Semitic humor in the past, I'll bet those cartoons aren't very funny. Cox & Forkum probably do better, even when they have a bad day.

[RobbyS]

There is probably not a family in Spain that does not have some Jewish ancestery. Celts, Germans, Jews and Arabs--those are the people who have peopled the land.

every culture has changed the world, and all of them for the better.

Tell us again how islamic culture has changed the world for the better.
