Yea, we knew—just turned the other way. One of the dirty secrets of WWII. Our government knew in the late 30’s, but either couldn’t do anything or wouldn’t do anything. Do research on a ship called the St. Louis: http://www.rossel.net/Holocaust10.htm We knew in 1939 that Jews were being slaughtered, and yet went out of our way to let it happen. And the same thing will happen again—except that the Jews are packing now, and will not go quietly into the night.
Isn’t that something? Abraham’s disobedience caused a whole lotta trouble for all of us. Wish I could speak to him face to face...LOL.
Thank you for leading me to that very sad and informative post. It makes me sick to think how our anti-semitic president and others in our own country neglected to deal with these murders (not to speak of other countries as well). I’m sure God wept at our indifference. I still think it’s a curse on our nation and will be until we go into a national repentance for that horrific sin against our brethren. Mxxx
We kept waiting for Europe to solve Europes problems. One thing is for certain. we recognized the atrocities committed against the Jews much more quickly than the atrocities committed against the Armenians, and were still doing nothing in Darfur. What About Kosovo? While Muslims continue to burn down Christian churches there under UN watch, “WE” helped turn it into another Muslim country. What’s the difference? only the political & propaganda machines operated by the various groups. You will also notice that Jews refuse to recognize what happened to the Armenians, and just out and out don’t want to discuss what Germany did to the Polish and the Gypsies in the same time period. I asked a Jewish friend of mine why, and he said that it would reduced the level of thunder they possessed in the media. Now I don’t know if this is true or not, but as a supporter if the Jewish state there are times when I question their loyalty to us. After all we have caught them spying on us & selling sophisticated U.S. military hardware to China after we told them not to. I think the U.S. has more than demonstrated a sincere allegiance with Israel. I know a while back I read that there were 3 Jews with duo citizenship that sat on our foreign aid & assistance committee. We have always helped them more than anyone else. We also recognized Israel as a country when nobody else would. If this country “Allowed” crimes against the Jews in WWII our atonement has been made a long time ago and on numerous occasions. In the past we just treated them as we treated any ethnic group. Are we evil because we didn’t treat them special any sooner?
I love my country, and I will not apologize for our delayed entry into WWII. Most Americans were against involvement prior to Pearl Harbor. Our involvement never was just to stop the Jewish Genocide.
No one has helped Israel more than the US. My point was, that even we were not forthright in coming to their aid. In the final analysis, if you believe what was written in the Bible, All will turn their back on Israel, including us.
I guess I should have said your friendly neighborhood muslim!!
that’s okay,not offended LOL.
