Rest assured, Abraham, that I'm not a Holocaust denier. While your parents were Holocaust survivors, you cannot deny that you are a comfortable educated Western professional who has likely not been exposed to more than the polite “parlour antisemitism” of fools. Consequently, I’m not persuaded that your vicarious self-identification with the Yiddish-speaking nation in Eastern Europe is justified in that your conditions in no way resembles the oppression experienced by that community and the tragic end which befell it. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
