Good thing you weren't a Ukrainian Catholic stuck in the Holocaust in the late 20's and early 30's, or a Polish Catholic trying to hide Jewish friends and nieghbors during Hitler's rampage, the penalty if caught doing such a thing was death.
I'm alive because some of my ancestors servived that horror, the lack of serviving relatives in the Ukraine and Poland today is because many didn't servive those two bloody animals, hero's to the NYT's.
I wonder, is all this publically attacking Mel by Jewish organizations merely going to backfire on them? If Hollywood does indeed crush his career will that not reinforce the idea that Hollywood is a Jewish organization? And if they are unforgiving of Mel will that merely give people the licesnse to be less forgiving of Israel when something takes place that maybe looks negative for Israel?
As for the jewish community "thickening their skin, I think for the most part they have thick skin, it's the media which is trying to make cuts in it.
Media never makes much noise at all when Muslim Imam's, Siekhs and Mullahs call for the death of every Jew on earth, nor do they utter a peep about Islamic schools and their text books in the mid east teaching hatred against Jews, Christians, Hindu's, and the west in general.
There is a serious LACK of balance in our media, perhaps because shareholders are from Arab countries?
