Geez. I never knew you were such a whiner.

Everyone who disagrees with anything the Israeli government does is automatically branded an anti-Semite.

Do you honestly think that argument holds any water any longer? No one believes it.

Wahhh!

Nikole.. Did you write all of that, or is it based, or taken from, another article?

Because, regardless of whether one agrees or disagrees, you make some powerful points and present them very succinctly and powerfully.

Very well written.

Since no e-mail was included in your post perhaps you can forward the following to the author.

"And, speaking about the Holocaust that has already taken place, what do you think should have been a proportionate response to that?"

"Appropriate" responses after WW1 sowed some of the seeds of WW2.
Between 1932 and 1945 the Jews lost 1/3 of their population. "Even with limited skills in the field of statistics it is possible to confirm that a potential growth from 15,192,000 in 1932 to a population of 16,500,000 in 1946 would not have been impossible nor unreasonable. It would have signified a growth of just over 9% in Jewish population in a period of 15 years. This was, of course, not to be. With the murder of 1/3 of the Jews in the world during the period 1940-1945, the world population of Jews has not even reached the levels of 1940."

The Germans lost around 13% of their population(10 million). Evening up for Jewish deaths means executing 15 million or so.
The USSR lost 24% of its population so execute 18 million more, reducing the German population to 36 million. Giving Poland an "appropriate" response would reduce the population of Germany to 30 million.
The figures are from this source, the calculations are mine.
