1. I understand now. Thanks for unrighteous discrimination.
Josh   (04.12.10)
Before converting and moving to Israel I never understood how an entire nation could turn against its own humanity and persecute someone to the point where insanity danced at the door. But I read articles of girls shunning their fellows. Being shut out as a convert and provoked for simply buying a cup of coffee each morning or nodding hello to the people that serve me, I understand how shocked the Jews were when the Nazis increased their antisemitism and isolation of Jews. Thanks for the lesson on human cruelty. ..and insantity can just travel up the block because you can't take my love of G-d and Torah from me. When will we learn from G-d's chastisement and the curse of Torah that G-d will promote a vile nation over us for our rebellion? It is starting all over again, isn't it? That is not the way to behave and we know this, don;t we? Choose again. Choose life.
2. The Holocaust
Talula ,   Israel   (04.12.10)
It is so hard to comprehend what happened to these people. What did they do that was so wrong? They did NOTHING! They were Jews, that was their only 'crime'. Every year I watch the TV in horror as more and more information unfolds about the Holocaust. These people won't ever be forgotten - Israel will never allow them to be forgotten. My only wish for them, is that when they pass on, they find peace and tranquility to calm and quiet their tormented and destroyed souls.
3. 6,000,000
Yael ,   Tel Aviv   (04.12.10)
Every soul that passed away and every soul that survived: We will never fully be able to understand the extend of your suffering, as even the most gruesome images on television are nothing compared to what you actually saw, felt, smelled and lived in the camps. We will never forget you.
4. #1, JOSH: CAN YOU PLEASE CLARIFY?
SETTHERECORDSTRAIGHT   (04.12.10)

5. to #1 whaaaaaat?
ghostq   (04.12.10)
many jews converted to chritianity to avoid prosecution, and they still were murdered, it isn't my place to say if it was right or wrong, but such impact none can stay indiferent even germans cause I know about too many cases that chritian germans converted to judaism after the war I know about famous Israeli acctress whos mother is German. just magin unblievable story of having both ex natzis and jews in your family.
6. #4 I think what he is saying is Israelis persecute unjustly
Anon   (04.13.10)
7. #1 That is terrible!!!!
Ruth ,   Los Angeles   (04.13.10)
I read that article on the mother beating school girls. That is terrible and how could they do that to a convert? That is forbidden in Judaism. We don't do that here. That is for sure.
8. #3 13 million people not just 6 million
Allen   (04.13.10)
Don''t ignore the others. I know its a bad habit. People need to stop saying 6 million lest someone say we are racists and uncaring.
