At least I'm In Good Company

I didn't realize that I had an (in?)famous commenter commenting on my blog.

I feel so privileged to have so much in common with Haaretz and the International Herald Tribune.

I go where I'm needed- to educate the ignorant.

"educate the ignorant"

except for yourself

and, by the way, you are not needed here. If you were needed, someone would have asked you to take your virulently racist, ignorant diatribe elsewhere.

"tina",

I already addressed the issue of racism HERE.

I know, for you that open Naziism isn't "racism". It's "normal".

I am going to leave comments open, for now. But Mr. Kohen, you really have got to lay off of the Nazi accusations; they are unfounded, in my opinion, slanderous.

Also, on the issue of "educating the ignorant"--that's your point of view. None of your so-called "factual" sites contain an iota of an alternative point of view. To me, that's not factual, that's just revealing a bias.

I show you actual pics- MANY of them- from MANY web sites, of the people YOU support, giving the Nazi salute, waving the Nazi flag, and meeting with Hitler (look up ANY biography on the Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin al-Husseini if you have any further questions).

PS Is this a "coincidence"? Am I lying? Is this a "POV"?

"Mein Kampf For Sale, In Arabic" (18/03/2002)

AN Arabic translation of Hitler's Mein Kampf which has become a bestseller in the Palestinian territories is now on sale in Britain.

The book, Hitler's account of his life and anti-Semitic ideology written while he was in prison in the 1920s, is normally found in Britain in academic or political bookshops.

But The Telegraph found it on sale in three newsagents on Edgware Road, central London, an area with a large Arab population.

The book, originally translated in the 1960s and revived by Bisan, a Lebanese publisher in the 1990s, has a picture of Hitler and a swastika on the cover and is selling for £10.

Although the Bavarian state government, which claims copyright in the text, has tried to stop its publication around the world, Mein Kampf became the sixth best selling book in the Palestinian Authority area.

Copies of the translation are understood to have been distributed to London shops towards the end of last year and have been selling well.

In the preface, Luis al-Haj, the translator, states: "National Socialism did not die with the death of its herald. Rather, its seeds multiplied under each star."

The book was on sale alongside newspapers, magazines, cigarettes and sweets at a newsagent's kiosk.

"People are interested in it," said the shop assistant. "It is legal to sell it. London is a free city and, anyway, he has been dead a very long time."

Andrew Dismore, Labour MP for Hendon, said the distribution of an Arabic version of Mein Kampf was "a very worrying trend" and he would be tabling questions to the Home Secretary.
