RE: "...Jews have a higher level of interest in "things intellectual" compared to "most peoples in most countries", as below, is just prejudice..." No, not "just prejudice." One can make judgements based on study that doesn't require a visit to the area in question. If I attribute the discrepancy to "race", then you may call it prejudice. One may get worldwide satistics on literacy and higher education without traveling. I will admt that I sometimes blur historical results with the contemporary situation. I am not concerned with contemporary comparisons with Western Europeans because there is only remnant communities of Jews there. RE: "There are testimonies in the Commission's report saying who knew what. I don't know why you keep coming back to "should have"." I don't believe the Commision's report indicated that Sharon knew what was happening and did nothing. Hence my "should have." You have the opportunity to prove me wrong with a dirct quote from the testimony. Until you do, repetition of both viewpoints is not useful.
