Stalin's J-ews

Re: Stalin's J-ews

My point is that there's no point in pointing out the Racial/Ethnic/Religious/Spiritual identities of horrendous and treacherous human beings because those things had no bearing on what they did. Does it matter that Hitler was German, Mao was Chinese, Mussolini was Italian, Obama is Black, Bush is White, or that Saddam Hussein was Arab?

For some reason, there's a strong tendency within some people to believe that being xxxish means you've got a stronger chance of being evil than most.

Well, I don't know about the last part but I do know that the truth of historical events, as best as we can come to them, should be made public. And as Catharsis said, no people or group should be above reproach.

The longer israel is an apartiad state the less credibility it will have with the world public.

Re: Stalin's J-ews

Why did you put all this under "General Armenian Talk"?

If you check well it was put under "General Discussion". And I am so sorry for offending you, I didn't know I should ask your permission to post something, I thought we lived in free democratic country.

Re: Stalin's J-ews

There are historical reasons for that belief....

Yeah, you get a triple X. I think, NO ONE should be above criticism (starting with our own people). It is not healthy to treat anyone (again starting with Armenians - including J.ews, Japanese, whoever!) as 'chosen people' frankly that IS racism, I don't care what 'religious' dogma you are trying to use.

I love our people and our Homeland with all my heart, and it is out of this love that I will be the first to give my (constructive) criticism. Also this love does not necessarily mean hatred for others (even ordinary Turks), to the contrary, that love extends to love for our planet (where we live) and humanity.

J.ews should also have this mechanism since (and this is my opinion) they are lacking this (speaking collectively in terms of Israel, there are outstanding intellectuals who happen to be J.ewish and point this out) and are on a self-destructive course Vis-à-vis the Palestinians and Palestine issue. We Armenians are also not above this, and if anything should learn a lot from this which will make us better people and overall human beings.

Re: Stalin's J-ews

It is interesting in the sense that this article was posted on a very well respected (rightwing) J.ewish News site..........now that is criticism that no Arab can ever muster.

You guys should check out those 330 readbacks from Israelis responding (attacking) to the Article and the writter.
hahaha boycott Ynet, that was a good one.

Re: Stalin's J-ews

I think much like many others, he too is trying to extract some sense out of this seemingly random copy-paste of an article. What's the point of a copy-paste without some insight as to why it is relevant or interesting?

After all, can't one just browse google for random articles to read?

Re: Stalin's J-ews

What's the point of pointing these things out?

What's the point of your question?
