Title: Hlocaust memorial day
Post by: Denn Forever on January 28, 2025, 11:35:55 AM
I know it was yest but yesterday but am surprised that I see no mention of it here  Was unbelievable time and I always thought that Ireland was neutral,even sending a letter of condolence to germany when Hitler died. 


Was glad to read a book that showed how Irish people help the french  resistance.  the book was The Irish in the Resistance  by Clodagh Finn and John Morgan.

This is not an appropriate attitude. The Holocaust stands as a uniquely evil event, and that is not diminished by other events caused by other people.

I don't care if it is appropriate or not, it is my attitude. 

I agree, the Holocaust was a terrible crime.

The holocaust was a terrible event that showed the worst of humanity and should never be forgotten, but the recent events in the middle east will do untold damage to the reputation of the Jewish community around the world. Gaza has been a concertation camp for decades and we all know its to be a clear out of the ghetto now from this point.

Uachtarán causing a stir at this event.

The Holocaust was a brutal and horrific event in history. Rightly, lessons should be learned from it. And if they are not being learned, then why should that not be pointed out?  Appropriate timing IMO.

You can sympathize and recoil from the horror and atrocities the Jews of Europe experienced while at the same time condemning what their descendants have wrought in Palestine. It's not an either/or thing. Just like criticism of Israel is not antisemitism.

Netflix have a French series on the Einsatzgruppen, the predecessor to the industrialized slaughter of the camps. One of the most horrifying programmes I've ever seen, and that was only the preview to what developed in the aftermath of Wannsee conference. Morale was so low amongst the German forces carrying out the slaughter that Heydrich, Himmler and the rest came up with the Zyklon B system to spare their soldiers.

Not sure why people can't call out both and move on

Another view would be, are the current Zionists the type of people they are today because of what happened 80 odd years ago?

Plenty of examples throughout history were nations were oppressed by invaders and become hardline in the future

Why are we even still talking about this? It was a war, terrible things happen. Wars and terrible things have happened since. I don't believe it was a 'uniquely' terrible event, terrible and all that it was. The fact is it's constantly trotted out to remind us Europeans how terrible we are, and how we must continue to be punished for it. If it had happened to any other group of people, we wouldn't still be on about it. Unfortunately, it's become the 'foundational myth' for the West, and the West hasn't benefitted form looking back at it, one iota.

Didn't  pay it much  attention to be honest , but it seemed to be  a wholly Jewish event

There's no doubt in my mind that they are like this today because of what happened 80 years ago, but that doesn't make the current situation any more acceptable.

At this moment what they are doing and being allowed to do in Gaza is every bit as bad, even if it isn't on the same scale.

Post by: NAG1 on January 28, 2025, 03:41:40 PM
I did see a quote somewhere yesterday got me thinking, not one single Israeli died in the Holocaust.

When you start to work back from that stand point does put a bit of context on the whole issue.

Also don't forget these Zionists that are all over social media on this wouldn't be your regular Jew/ Israeli, they are as extreme as Hamas on the other side. So I wouldn't be listening to too much they are coming out with.

Well one could make the case that the remembrance of the Holocaust should be a sacred event and that anything that draws attention away from that is inappropriate and offensive

(That's not my take-that's the take of the people who were offended. My take is if you're enough of an idiot to invite a clown like Michael D to speak at your event-you get what you deserve)

It would be like having a speaker at a Famine Commemoration (in Ireland) and the speaker using that opportunity to criticize the IRA

If he offended Zionists who refuse to see that what they're doing in Palestine isn't a genocide then even more power to him.

It is a bit sickening to see a lot of other politicians chant out the old mantra "Never Forget" while turning a blind eye to what is happening now.

Not having read said memoirs I bow to your obvious knowledge. However, both Eisenhower and Churchill knew of the Holocaust.
"There is no doubt in my mind that we are in the presence of one of the greatest and most horrible crimes ever committed" Churchill in a letter to Henry Mond in July 1944.
"The things I saw beggar description.... I made the visit deliberately in order to be in a position to give firsthand evidence of these things if ever, in the future, there develops a tendency to charge these allegations merely to 'propaganda.'"

—General Dwight D. Eisenhower, in a letter to Army Chief of Staff George C. Marshall, April 15, 1945

Come back Gmac, all is forgiven!

The mods have given up it seems
Gave up a long time ago. Has been right wing comments here way beyond the pale coming from a genocide supporting American poster to the board.

(I don't know which poster you're referring to but) Please share some of the posts where this person expressed their support for genocide....I'd love to see them
Wow! Look who replied!... you shouldn't have any bother finding them...

Fire away....put them all up for everyone to see
Can't be bothered looking for them. Perhaps I should have said justified genocide... support/justify... same thing really.

So asking what Hamas hoped to accomplish by the October 7th attacks is "justifying" genocide in your book

You really need to get out more

Well we agree there, but theres enough evidence on the Holocaust out there that most people would be satisfied that it happened.

I cannot believe hamas burnt babies in ovens. But so many in politics and main stream media told us it happened and continued to say it happened in the face of strong evidence against their claims. Its no wonder supporters of Israel, who I'm sure believed the initial strong narrative, wanted retribution.

Yep, and can we move on to the other subject now, can you even throw up a bit of evidence it didn't happen with regards to the actual topic thread? Not looking much in fairness

The fact is it's constantly trotted out to remind us Europeans how terrible we are, and how we must continue to be punished for it. If it had happened to any other group of people, we wouldn't still be on about it. Unfortunately, it's become the 'foundational myth' for the West, and the West hasn't benefitted form looking back at it, one iota.

Woke ideology, for a start.

How is it connected to remembering the unspeakable horror and atrocities of the holocaust?

I don't even know who that is ?

What did they say?

EDIT-I see it's another poster

Well unlike many people on this board, I have actually been to Dachau

I also went to see the Auschwitz exhibit in Boston last year

https://theauschwitzexhibition.com/

I lived in a town with a large Jewish population where it was not unusual for the kids to serve in the Israeli military upon graduation from High School

My mentor and close friend is Jewish.....I had dinner with him and his wife in December

So I would say I am very much pro Jewish and pro Israel

Being aware, awake of long held disparities in the world is not something to be ashamed of. The hijacking of the word woke as in being awake to suggest pathetic societal attitudes is pretty disgusting. There are "super" woke initiatives that perhaps don't need to be resolved at the same time as racial and sexual discrimination. There is a hierarchy of precedents set in times gone by that does need to change as the world evolves however. I will continue to be "woke" to those, along with many decent human beings.

Absolutely not what was written at all. I expect you know that.

There is no need to backlash against genuine efforts to improve the lot of others, particularly if it is not at the expense of anyone else. Unless of course their behaviour is not decent.

Zionists/genocidal supporters would make up the majority of Israelis and most likely Jews so what you see on social media is the tip of the iceberg of their (zionists) depravity. And then add in Christian zionists, which I have seen suggested is as high as 20/30 Christians to every 1 Jewish zionist, also strong zionist support in India too.
