The terrible warning of a Holocaust survivor

16 Comments

It's very unnerving...

It is like we hit a wrinkle in time and history is repeating itself. Both sides are going to have a rematch but this time Islam is an added force...and yes the media/internet is expanding the reach of the left's message..also our Government has moved further away from our Constitution making it easier for the onslaught of the 4th Reich to take hold.

GOOD POST!

Having known a Holocaust survivor as a child, and hearing the stuff straight from one who experienced, we must make sure it never happens here. One man once said that if every German had a mauser and 20 rds, and the guts to use it, Hitler would never have happened.

I couldn’t have said it better.

Obama might publically say he backs Israel, but when push comes to shove, what will he do to prevent Iran from fulfilling their stated mission.

The near future does not look too rosy.

Thanks for coming by...

We cannot let Obama abandon Israel. Their fate is our own.

I hope there’re enough willing people around, should the need arise to use the mauser.

Thanks for the post.

Europe NEVER Gets it Right

This is a dire warning which the U.S. must heed. Europe will not. My husband's family is in Germany and he and I personally do not think they believe--the Germans that is--that they were particularly wrong. They consider themselves victims too. They don't own their crap, and now it appears they are prepared to revisit the horrors of history. I hope everyone will contribute to the Internation Fellowship of Christians and Jews. It tries to help persecuted Jews (is there any other kind?) all over the world and in Israel.

Its been asked before...

...why one German soldier w/a sub-machine gun could move 500 Jews peacefully onto a train destined to the death camps. Why didn't they charge him? Because they, being mostly very smart people, always seem to carry the hope that they can "reason" with evil and convince it to allow them to get on with their lives. Its a real head scratcher.

There is a small, free pamphlet that you can order that explains the phenomena better than I've ever heard it explained here: http://www.rbthieme.org/anti-sem.htm

I recommend it.
If I lived in Europe or Israel, I'd be makng plans to get my family and myself out as soon as possible.

Jan,

“This is a dire warning which the U.S” Indeed.

I live in Italy. And I can say with certainty that without US backing, Israel stands alone. There are not enough Europeans with the will to do what’s necessary to ensure their own security against Iran and fundamental Islam.

I firmly believe we are at the door of a precipice. And with the most liberal president ever elected at the helm. The upcoming test facing Obama will make GW’s challenge seem like a Telletubby episode in comparison.

Thanks for stopping by.

“If I lived in Europe or Israel, I'd be making plans to get my family and myself out as soon as possible.”

I don’t think there’s any immediate threat to me and my family here in Italy. However, I understand that as a retiree overseas, I’m a very soft target for any nut wanting to make a point.

I have an exit strategy should the need arise. It’s a reality I’m all too aware of.

I’ll be watching the winds very carefully in the coming years.

Thanks for dropping by.

I don't think

Israel hatred is a cover at all. I think there's nothing subtle about it. It's definitely Jew hatred. Looks a lot like my post a while back called "A Second Holocaust". Also have a new post up. Good blog.

Some of the anti-semantic rhetoric is overt...enter the lovely Muslim woman screaming, “Back to the ovens!”

However, I think the majority of the sentiment remains veiled behind the liberal guise of victimhood. In this instance, the victim is the poor defenseless Arab. The facts surrounding the situation matter not, and in there anti-Semitism is revealed.

But in one sense I agree. The rhetoric is becoming louder and bolder. And as it does, so does fundamentalism.

Thanks for your comments.

Interesting

I too could never understand how some Jewish voters seem to ignore the left's hatred for Israel's position in the middle east

Neotrotsky


Good point...and a very puzzling one at that.

Thanks for dropping by.

Hate the truth, not just Jews.

Proverbs 1:22 "How long will you simple ones love your simple ways?
How long will mockers delight in mockery
and fools hate knowledge?

Footnotes:

1. Proverbs 1:22 The Hebrew word rendered simple in Proverbs generally denotes one without moral direction and inclined to evil.

There is nothing in the history of the Jewish state that justifies the assaults against it.

Their is nothing in their simple minds that will bring hope to this world of a lasting peace.


History repeats itself

until we get it Right.

Europe obviously didn't learn a blessed thing from the rise of Nazism, they're still appeasing their potential dictators, hoping they'll be spared.

How many millions more have to die before liberalism/marxism is finally repudiated?

Do the same thing over and over, expecting a different result. The definition of insanity.

Saddest of all, the leftists in our country want to Emulate these fools.

I’m incline to agree…history tends to repeat itself again and again. Why should this cyclic bout of liberal stupidity be any different?

Thanks for posting.

we are running out

of places to flee to. Free speech will keep us free, fight Stabenow.
