Centuries have proven they can be a hard-headed lot.
You beat me to it. American Jews will continually vote for Obama and make excuses.
“WWII Jews didnt “believe” until they were being marched to the gas chambers...”
Oh, that’s a load of horse poop.
European Jewish people did not waltz stupidly into the gas chambers.
Yes, some were tricked. There was an elaborate sham where they would force people to write fake letters about “lovely Aushwitz . . come and see the New Israel where we can be Jewish . . “
But generally, Jewish people got the hint in the mid-1930s and did their best to flee, fight, or hide.
Unfortuntely, there was a Depression on, the USA closed its doors to Jewish immigrants, and there were not a lot of options.
My grandfather, a French physician who delivered about 1/2 the babies in the town, was promptly ratted out by fellow Frenchmen, killed two policemen on his way out of town (with a pipe; to my knowledge the only men he personally killed) and then fled to the new world, serving in a American-trained branch of the French Army (as a combat doctor), before ending up in Israel just in time to fight some more.
Pretty much 35 years of intermittant combat during the prime of his life.
His story is not particularly unique in Israel; indeed, it’s typical of his generation.
The entire meme of stupid Jewish people walking peacefully to their deaths is nuts.
