I'm happy to see the process being engaged.Arnold Evanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11445744338502151561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34135100.post-79193248666669181022010-05-01T01:27:42.587-04:002010-05-01T01:27:42.587-04:00Well, here's to hoping he reads your blog. His...Well, here's to hoping he reads your blog. His best bet would be to avoid challenging the details of the Holocaust and to state that it was a calamity that occured in Europe, by Europeans against Europeans. Not only Germans, were involved, but that it couldn't happened without a large network of European collaborators. How then does Europe come to lecture the Muslim world about it? Why does it seem that Europeans are always trying to transfer their guilt to others? Read any statement by Angela Merkel and you would get the impression that Hitler was Iranian. <br /><br />He should hammer that point over and over again. It is Logical, fair, and historically accurate and does not offend the numerous people, Jewish or otherwise, who are disinclined towards Zionism.Lysandernoreply@blogger.com
