first comes thread-jack then comes marriage


Now I don't know which thread to post my legitimate reply on. I originally thought Flint was accusing the Iranians of copying the Germans, then I actually read his quoted post.

I rmember asking a jewish friend once if the "never again" sentiment extended to any type of genocide or religious persecution and she gave me this incredulous look and said "Of course not, it means never again - to us."

I don't know if she actually speaks for all Jews, I doubt it, but I never followed up on it. It seems to me that never again, but only for us is too little to late and doesn't adress a root problem only a very specific palliative remedy.

It stretches my brain in an uncomfortable way to try to imagine what anyone thinks, really believes they will accomplish with domination, subjugation, and or strong-arming other nations w/ nuclear weapons.
