Sarah Brady comments: "While we do not support the actions of the Nazis, we remain concerned about the easy availability of pistols, grenades and machine guns in ghetto areas."

Polish resistance fighters stepped up pinprick attacks against the Nazis and in August 1944 launched an ill-fated revolt in Warsaw that took the Germans 63 days to put down.

The article neglects to mention the uprising was timed to coincide with the arrival of the Red Army. However, the Soviets inexplicably stopped their advance outside Warsaw, ignored Polish pleas for assistance, and waited until the Germans to smashed the Polish resistance before resuming their drive on Warsaw.

Yonif, when harsh gun laws were introduced into Australia back in '96, The Australian Broadcasting Corporation ran a story tangentially relevant to your thread. A blindfolded film crew were taken to a location north of Adelaide (South Australia) by a group of young Jews. The men placed (banned) SKS and SKK rifles, plus large amounts of ammunition into PVC plumbing pipes, and buried them in the forest. All this was recorded on camera and played on the ABC's 7:30 Report. Their argument, as expressed eloquently by their leader, was basically, 'Warsaw, never again.' Cheers, By

Check out the website www.jpfo.org. It's a Jewish gun rights website. They make the NRA look liberal. Their premise is based on this incident that if the Jews had been organized and armed, the holocaust wouldn't have happened.

"The war is not about oil, it's about defending man's freedom," Edelman said in an
interview at his home.
"As you can see, the world has not learned the lessons of the Holocaust."

You can say that again brother.

I noticed (with happy approval) when I first saw a commercial for "The Pianist"
when the voice over of Adrian Brody says something like "I'm going to stay and
take my chances", as the visual shows hands opening up a cloth to reveal a pistol.

I thought "very cool...maybe mainstream American Jews will start embracing the idea
that gun ownership is a good thing".

Funny, when the commercial campaign revived for the Oscar season...that part of the
commercial "went missing".

Like the old soldier says...most folks still haven't gotten the lesson yet.
Even the likely future victims.
