The problem is looking back at history to justify current actions! And the masses are so gullible to replicate the same past mistakes! The world would be better of if we were dumber and then we would became less argumentative. I was reading a book on the Ottomans rule over the Balkans where the peasants were so ignorant within their own villages that they didn’t have clue what religion they were. The whole villages simply went to churches, Synagogues or Mosques celebrations….in the end the Vizier used to berate the Muslims for attending the other religious establishment. I believe I’m of Germanic stock and all I know is that I was a post war dropout or could be basically considered as the younger generation of the Holocaust generation. I have never had birth certificate and simply relied on a stat declarations to join the Australian Airforce etc. The people I knew as my parents were so secretive, when I inquired why I can’t produces a birth certificates they kept simply say that documents were destroyed during the war.

Well, how ironic it would be to learnt you were in fact a Jewish child whose parents gave you to a non-Jewish German couple for safe-keeping! I do have some friends with similar stories….their “adoptive” parents concealed the child’s Jewishness, which the children re-discovered as young adults.
