<<PS: Feel the love: <afterward, virtually all trace of Jewish life in Shanghai was wiped away. Schools and shops closed, and most synagogues were demolished by China's new rulers>>
maurice, let us not misrepresent history to make a pointless point.
jewish shops were shut down by mao, and the people allowed to leave china. places of prayer were destroyed.
chinese shops were shut down by mao, and chinese people were not allowed to leave. places of prayer were destroyed.
the jews were not singled out, but were swept up in a once per several generation revolution to right social injustice of a vast and ancient land, and as they were visitors once welcomed, were allowed to leave body and soul, while the family got down to righting what was skewed
whether a blood letting in china is way beyond the discussion about whether (i) the jews were welcomed in china at their most dire moment, when china itself was also dire, (ii) whether the jews of israel today give annual thanks in shanghai, (iii) what the british did and did not do, and (iv) collective punishment
is collective punishment right?
is israel not practicing collective punishment?
did nazi germany practice collective punishment?
do the palestinians have a functioning state, or exist in a large concentration camp made more dangerous by cluster bombs?
debating you is easy. just stick to the point and pound away. and is fun, because it exposes you for what you are, bit by awful bit. |
