    Seriously, there was some cooperation between the Jewish militant groups in Palestine and the Nazis.

    Guess who was in a Jewish militant group in British-occupied Palestine?

    Netanyahu’s parents. They changed their name from something Polish to the much more semitic Netanyahu and emigrated in Palestine in the 1920s with the express idea of creating a Jewish state.

    Netanyahu and his family did not suffer from the Holocaust, they benefited from it.

        Far too few people know and I don’t blame them or you for not knowing because it’s in Netanyahu’s interest to make people think he’s also a victim and the ever-compliant media plays along.

        The only reason I even know is that one day I decided to look up his family and see what happened to them during WWII. So if I hadn’t, sort of on a whim, taken the initiative to look it up, I would be as in the dark about it as most people.

        And I wish there were a way for me to let people know beyond “talk about it on internet forums,” but I don’t have that sort of influence.
