When I grew up in Germany many of the service kids at my army boarding school visited there. They felt kind of an obligated visit. And many of them lived near there. However, I never wished to go, even though I wasn't aware of the true facts at the time, something held back. Luckily I dont think...

Going through W. Chittick's The Sufi Path of Knowledge, in the section The Divine Conflict in Chapter 3 The Divine Roots of Hierarchy & Conflict, there are couple of translated passages from Ibn al' Arabi's great work Futuhad which speak very nicely and thought-provokingly about the theme of...

I agree, I think this creates a precedent, because in many of the European countries the Arab and Islamic population outnumbers the native population, and sometimes the native population is not very tolerant either, so the Zionist diaspora runs a high risk of being “attacked” with this...

...it would have been a case of football fan violence and that would be it. But the Israeli government is comparing it to pogroms and the Holocaust, and they want to send military planes to "rescue" the poor persecuted Jewish people. :rolleyes: They forgot to mention that these were hooligans...

...what is happening is a normal war rather than a systematic extermination. Omer Bartov, an Israeli-American historian who is a professor of Holocaust and genocide studies at Brown, is one of the experts who believes what is happening in Gaza is a genocide. He didn’t always believe this to be...

...Now, with the signs interchanged, this instantaneous lightning will be the lightning collapse (lightning war-floods) with profound changes, holocaust and destruction. What happens as a consequence of all that is that societies change brutally, there are social, political, economic and...

...For me, this is a conscious setting in motion, as for the Nazis of a superior Aryan race, here of the chosen race proclaimed by the messianic/revisionist Zionists with divine power and the Shoah under their arm, all that stands in their way will simply be killed by bombardment, by famine, by...

Yeah, more or less. What's your point, though? Mine was that not all lessons are based on a profile, and not all people even have a well-defined profile, so ascribing events to "karma" won't always be accurate. For example: I think this is probably the most extensive discussion mentioning karma...

...descendants. When Europeans resist, the Jews raise the alarm over ethnocentrism, which is a short step away from anti-semitism and another Holocaust. Meanwhile, they themselves maintain their ethnocentrism, and also sense of superiority. European resistance to immigration or other...

...and then to steal their land. And this is what other Israeli leaders think. They think God is telling them to carry out a slaughter, a Holocaust, of Palestinians. Turns out they're inbred genetic defects who are hearing voices because of the schizophrenia. Yeah. So the people who claim...

Perhaps a related question here is if the Palestinian people are expunging some karmic debt with their current situation? If yes, that would at least put their current suffering into a lesson profile context. Not that that would make the situation enjoyable, but it would make it more...

...Jewish community organisations, the legal charge of "crime against humanity" should be reserved to the WW2 Jewish genocide... (AKA Shoah / Holocaust -- BTW I strongly dislike this last term, because it means "(voluntary) sacrifice by fire"... one can guess for what intent !). My first...

I’m reminded of a friend I had in high school in the early 1980s. He was from Augsburg and moved to Southern California as a boy. He used to sit in his room and listen to albums of recordings of Hitler’s speeches. He didn’t hate Jews per se, but referred always to “dirty Jewish lies”. He once...

...perhaps gets associated with jews in general period. Which is halfway wrong, but right enough for people to associate Hitler with holocaust and the prospect of removing a bad influence from positions of power in the world, looking less shocking considering the lens through which it is looked...

...become what it has. It’s been mentioned in this thread how many Jews died in Russian programs. It could actually be more in total than the Holocaust’s numbers. Not to mention there are many who believe those numbers were greater inflated as has virtually everything in Jewish history and...

...is usually overly demonized. But was Hitler a "good guy"? Hardly. In the final analysis, his targeting of Jews led to what is called the Holocaust and that has been used since then to justify the creation of the state of Israel and everything that has gone with it. At the very least then...

@Jim Daniels, I recommend that you read the C's transcripts on Hitler as it becomes abundantly clear in them that Hitler was not fighting a morally justified war of self-defense. Also, Laura wrote a good post here on the topic of Hitler that should dispel any illusion that Hitler was 'fighting...

...in front of the camp; perhaps seeing the place for the first time, knowing its heavy history, had its effect also. We then walked (I was with a friend) the grounds and visited the buildings on our own. Yeah, the concept of the Holocaust is taken advantage of and is used for nefarious purposes.

...ourselves - those in charge of Auschwitz today WANT people to feel uneasy when going there, and it the entire tour was designed to invoke those feelings. It is supposed to have a negative impact on visitors, and to feed the "Holocaust Was The Worst Thing That Happened To Humanity EVER" egregore.

...mentioned, I remembered seeing him on the evening news back in the nineties and how he was being portrayed as a madman for "denying" the Holocaust. In the snippet shown, people actually spat on him, and there was almost a lynch mob mentality occurring. Apparently it was a smear campaign...
