As I am ruddering through my rivers of mail, I try to sort by topic, and one of my files is called Sunday Smiles.
So far, the smiles are few and far between - however, to its extreme mortification, the world grows wiser every day.
Here is the evidence:
". . . We may be few in number but think of the huge sums of money the Holocaust Lobby has to spend to counteract the truth spread by a comparative few. . . "
". . . the result of comparing older Holocaust accounts that were once written in stone to newer accounts that are currently written in stone. . ."
". . . The eighth grade science teacher, William Marks, complimented the girl, Rebecca Harville, for answering a question correctly by saying 'Boy, you Polish Nazis are smart.'
The lawsuit claims that the slur left the girl '. . . humiliated and emotionally scarred. . . '"
Just think of the fortunes that are awaiting all those labeled "Nazis"!
". . . Beautiful Franziska von Almsick is one of the best female swimmers of Germany. Recently, the seventeen-year-old got into trouble with the "international media" because she openly admitted having read Hitler's Mein Kampf.
Franziska regards Hitler as her favorite character in history and said so. Then she added: ". . . I am very interested in German history, and the Second World War belongs to Adolf Hitler.
It is not forbidden to be interested in such things, or is it . . . ?"
". . . some 37 right-wing media products, including compact disc, cassettes and brochures, were outlawed as "dangerous to youth" last month by the German Government.
The media products outlawed either glorified the German role in the second world war or 'played down' German guilt. . . "
The same issue also mentions that
". . . Germany is phasing out development aid to Israel in favor of aid to Palestinians in the West Bank and projects in Jordan . . . Israel's per capita income now exceeds the . . . cap for such aid, disqualifying it from disbursements. . ."
". . . educated European students, who like to think they are free of taboos, react in the same manner when (those taboos) are broken as members of primitive Polynesian tribes. . . "
The Treasury Ministry issued injunctions last September and this January for the Union of Italian Jewish Communities to pay up to $327,000 in reparations."
Italy passed laws in 1970 and 1971 which allows compensation to victims of war. These payments were to be paid out by war-related groups and the Union of Italian Jewish Communities is legally defined as such a group. . ."
Here is the perfect slogan for our motley team: Ve vill make it!
