No deal. Your basic presumption is flawed. Not every German during the holocaust was automatically and without exception a participant in the holocaust and a jew murdering nazi. Since already this premise for your insults towards me is false, your insults, i.e. that I'm excusing/denying the holocaust and thus must be a nazi, is, since it is based on this premise, also false.
If I can interject into this private flame-war <grin>, I think what might be going on here is a difference in terms. If I'm interpreting correctly, for Sonja, if there is a significant minority (even if it is only a few percent) who would fit her criteria. But for Gautam, that's just rounding error. It's close enough to everybody.
Given that, you two are never going to agree. Of course, you didn't need *me* to tell you that...
But honest, your effort is appreciated. By me anyway. I've given up on discussion with Gautam. Still working on a respons to Dan though.
Sonja :o) GCU: Entirely reasonable ROU: Let's argue numbers then
