This isn't the first time I've seen Jews blamed for the Shoah and even for collaborating with the Nazis.

People in Europe, in particular, especially Brits, have a long history of antisemitism but Israel in particular, and the loss of their colony and stature in the Middle East on top of losing the rest of their Empire post WWII, for that they will never forgive us.

To this day no British royal has visited Israel, save Prince Phillip who came unofficially when his mother died (she's buried in Jerusalem I believe) and it was nine months before the Brits even recognized Israel. They also armed the Arabs and British officers led the Arab Legion into battle against the Jews.

This is really a pretty appalling story with a long history. So comments like these are part and parcel of decades of duplicity and outright harm to the Yishuv and subsequently to holocaust survivors and now to modern Israel. There are books about this, about the "war of attrition," the behavior of the Empire toward refugees from the Shoah, toward Holocaust survivors, their disarming of the Jews who served the British military in WWII, their favoritism toward the Arabs even during wars.

Note also the hypocrisy: when Jordan annexed the West Bank and the old city of Jerusalem after WWII, the British immediately recognized and supported them although much of the world did not. Yet Israel is accused of "occupation" and "land theft."

Apparently that's ok if Jordan does it.

Sheila Broflovski,

What!!!? This is beyond an epic fail! Where are these antisemitic bigots getting their bizarre ideas about the history of World War 2? Jews didn't operate the concentration camps that murdered Jews and Nazi is not an amalgam of the words ‘National socialism’ and ‘Zionist.’

People will say any dumb shit if they think only their friends are listening.

Sheila Broflovski,

Hopefully only the people that already support them will believe this, and maybe it will end up turning one or two of their supporters against them, when they realize that they endorse this ridiculous conspiracy theory.

I pointed this out downstairs but Eustance Mullins is someone whose writings Glenn Beck has praised. Anyhow, these people are fucked up and their sense of history too. Assholes.

My thoughts exactly. These fools have opened their mouths and removed all doubt.

Plus, if they try to run for public office or do anything else high profile, this bulls*** will deservedly haunt them. Laws against hate speech aren't the answer. The answer is to enlighten as many people as possible, and let the bigots hang expose themselves.

Here's a Media Matters report from when Glenn Beck was promoting Mullins uh work.

Are people really this stupid? Nazi is short for Nazionale (National).

Unfortunately, it appears they are, not to mention bigoted.
