Nobel laureate: "Auschwitz is alive in Ramallah"
Mexican bookstore opening canceled after Jews complain see second item
below...
May 20, 2003
Dear Editor:
On May 17, Ha'aretz published an article about a Mexican book chain
canceling the opening of a new store after protests from the Jewish
community about the scheduled appearance of Nobel laureate writer Jose
Saramago. The protests were based on Saramago's criticisms last year when he
stated that "Auschwitz is alive in Ramallah," obviously finding strong
similarities there after his visit
to Ramallah in March of 2002 (
http://english.pravda.ru/columnists/2002/04/01/27266.html
 ).
The flaw in Saramago's statement is that he confined it only to "Ramallah",
when it should have been applied to the entire occupied territories.
Perhaps the Jewish Community in Mexico should have read the January 25,
2001, article by Amir Oren published in Ha'aretz where it was reported that
the IDF was studying the tactics used by the Nazi army in the Warsaw Ghetto.
It is apparent since the time of that article that the IDF has done
remarkably well on the subject.
In a book entitled "Cordon & Search" (
http://www.britains-smallwars.com/swbooks/Cordon-Search.html
)  written by
British Major General R. Dare Wilson who served in the Headquarters Staff of
the 6th Airborne Division in Palestine between 1945 and 1948, he recalls how
the British Army were called "Gestapo-like" by the Jewish community because
of the methods the British employed in attempting to find members of Jewish
terrorist groups by suddenly swooping down into the settlements and knocking
on doors in the very early morning hours conductinng searches.  However the
searches were for only those people the police and troops had reason to
believe were connected with the campaign of violence which had reached
epidemic proportions and never directed at the entire Jewish population in
Palestine.
Today, there are no "knocks" on the doors of the Palestinian community,
rather the IDF knocks them down, including walls and entire homes, bombs
heavily congested civilian areas with complete disregard for human life,
cuts off electricity, heat and water, denies medical treatment, uses
Palestinian civilians as human shields, uses methods of torture, throws
people into detention for months without any charges, has made mass arrests
of Palestinian males from the ages of 15 to 40, and Israeli officers have
even written numbers on the arms of Palestinian prisoners as exactly the
Nazis did when they used tattooing methods. The list is painfully long, but
every man, woman and child is collectively punished based only on his
Palestinian identity. What words would the Jewish community in Palestine
have had if these same tactics had been used by the British?
As for the people of the Mexican Jewish community who in protest returned
books that Saramago had authored, some of whom wrote statements inside his
books for Saramago to "study history," the best advice that could be given
to them is to "remember history."

di' la verità, tu sei un troll creato dal Mossad, per mostrare la stupidità
di questi nazistini. Dopo averti letto, viene l'istinto non solo della
conversione immediata al giudaismo, ma anche di studiare da rabbino.

Ti stai per convertire, o sei un rabbino con crisi mistiche?
