Proposing that palestinians should pay for the crimes of the nazis will not sell to very many people, and especially not to palestinians

But they WERE Nazis! Their great national leader was a Nazi, and their avowed war aim was genocide. That much is a historical fact.

That you dismiss it as 'some attempt to blame the palestinians for the Nazis', omit to mention that they started the war, and blame everything on the Jews, only goes to show the vast, vast double standard which you and the rest of the Left today apply to Israel and the Arab world. For Israel, anything less than moral perfection must be condemned. Jewish Terror? Horrors, they are tainted forever. For Arabs, genocidal reactions - well they were provoked by the existence of the Jews, Arabs deserve self-determiniation, but Jews don't....Arab terror, greater by a thousand fold than the small account of Jewish terror, is ignored or excused. It's their culture, mustn't be "Orientalist".

It's all bullshit. Over the next generation, the Arab Mideast will democratize and join the rest of the planet, and this bullshit you have been lapping up from the Arabs will join Communism on the ash heap of history, because they themselves will have outgrown it. You'll probably be the last guy spouting it.
