<>Mr Katsav, foreign minister of Israel, reminded European leaders that "rabid anti-Semitism" in Europe had made the Nazis' job easier and warned that such hatred was again on the rise. "We fear anti-Semitism. We fear Holocaust denial, we fear a distorted approach by the youth of Europe," he said.> "We call upon the European Union: do not let Nazism dwell in the imaginations of the young generations as a horror show, so to speak."
Let's get this right this time. "Do not let Nazism dwell" seems much like a fascist edict itself. Or else what? We can only imagine. Given the treatment the Palestinians have received from the Zionists for nearly a century, given the overt ruthless fascism practiced by the Israelis against the arab world, it certainly seems that the only people who truly dwell on Nazism are the Israelis and Jews themselves. There seems to be the certitude that Bush and the leaders of Israel share concerning their vision of righteousness empowering the uncontrolled use of their powers. Faith based fundamentalism will always be faith based fundamentalism regardless of the religion. When Jewish commentators continue to describe the behavior of the Nazi regime as the " worst genocide in the history of western civilization" they are intentionally avoiding any referential signification of the slaughter of american indians, and the behaviors of western colonial empires throughout the world. Hell, the jewish slaughter in europe only killed a third of them. Whole entire native nations were exterminated, whole regions cleansed of populations, whole tribal groups in southeast asia eliminated. 20 million christians killed in china in the mid 1800's seems like a bit more than 6 million to me. But Jews love propaganda. They love trying to control rhetoric and symbols and semiotic referents, so that only they can spout the messages. The conservative message machine in this country is the bread and butter copycat version of AIPAC and FLAME and the early 20th century ZIONism. The only fascism breediing right now is the Israeli/USA version, based on lies and deceptions and nuclear weapons.
