The Warsaw Ghetto Jews were the exception to the rule. They do not change the fact that arguably 6 million Jews more or less marched themselves to the gas chambers.

I apologize if talking about this is distressful. Books have been written about this phenominon. Exactly why do you believe I should not wonder how the Germans were able to manage their geneocide with little meaningful resistance from the vast majority of people they were killing?

Don’t you think it important that Israel not be lulled into that mindset again?

Books may have been written, but the koran is also written. So what?

The meme of Jews peacefully marching to their death (in contrast to anyone else) is simply not a truthful story.

IMHO, it came about because: (1) at the time, the Jews (stupidly, but that’s another post) aligned themselves with communists, so the fact of their resistence was not a popular one to promote in the West and (2) the Nazis were much more subtle that people recall. For example, they had people in camps write letters about how wonderful the “new homelands” were and send them back.
