Mr. Trump is not a knowledgeable person of good will.
As for the nuns of your experience, I have known, only a very few nuns and I
can't speak for their beliefs about the holocaust. However, the one who is
an old friend of mine and who is 86 years old, and the Dominican community
in Virginia, of which she is a member, are not Holocaust deniers, nor are
they Trump supporters. The Irish Catholic eighth grade teacher whom I had
in 1950, might possibly have been one, however.

Miriam, I agreed with all you said until the very last line where you said
"knowledgeable people of good will" That is a very tenuous describer. For
example many Americans would consider Catholic Nuns "knowledgeable people
of good will". However, it was the nuns that in the 70s an 80s were teaching
young people of my generation that the holocaust was a lie, the Jews sold
themselves into labor and death camps for profit; and of course our favorite
referral to the German Nazi party as "very fine people". Does that sound
familiar?

Bob,
Your facts are incorrect. They are based on confusion and stereotype. I will
respond to you this one time and then I will no longer have this particular
discussion with you.
Not all Jewish people are Zionists. My background is Jewish and I am not a
supporter of Israel. There are many Jews who do not support Israel. But
there are many who do and they do so for a variety of complicated reasons.
One of the reasons is that many of us were lied to about how and why the
Falfour Declaration came to be and what happened when the State of Israel
was declared. The fact that Israel and the US are acting together with
Ssaudi Arabia to attempt to dominate the Middle East at this point in
history, has very little to do with what was happening to Jews and Europeans
and Americans and Palaestinians in the nineteenth century.
Jews were a hated minority in Europe and they were allowed few areas of the
society in which they could function. However, they were permitted to handle
finances. It doesn't follow that they were powerful or directing what was
happening in Christian countries. The leaders of Christian countries
scapegoated them, blamed all their countries' problems on them, just like
Mr. Trump scapegoats Muslims and Mexican immigrants today. The reason that
so many American Jews objected to Mr. Trump's Muslim bans is that they
understood that these bans are precisely the kinds of things that have been
done to Jews in the past.
When you say that you disagree about how many people were eliminated during
the Nazi genocide of the Jews, (and also of homosexuals, Gypsies, disabled
people, and communists), you are denying a reality that you have been taught
by your leaders to deny in the same way that so many Americans deny the fact
that human behavior is causing climate change. Denials of fact won't make
the facts go away. You are free to say whatever you please, but your
opinions will not be respected by knowledgeable people of good will.

I disagree with you.
Even if we suppose the occurrence of this carnage by the Nazis, the number
six million is exaggerated. The reality is, Jews bribed Christians and
through the commencement of Protestantism, they were capable of fully
directing Christians to stand by their interest. Look until today, how
Christians became a held device at Jewish hands. Christians aided them to
establish a statehood in occupied Palestine. And, through enforcing their
military strength, Christians stand behind daily Israeli crimes. I challenge
anyone anywhere in the west who has authority or he is a head of state to
just utter a word about Israel and its inhumane practices. The reason the
fibbed Holocaust account couldn't be questioned, examined, challenged or
historically investigated, is that Jews are Christian's major economic
provider. And, if they played with fire, they will basically be burned. Who
made the global banking system that we're wholly coerced to hold fast to
today? Weren't them? The hatred of Jews is primarily based on their long and
dark history of dissimulation. When they committed terrible massacres in
Lebanon and Palestine, no one in the whole western world stood to them in
explicit opposition. Just diplomatic remarks of condemnation have been made,
so western leaders could have an egg on their face. But today, no one dares
to even criticise what Israel does. Well instead, they justify.
Freedom of speech to refute, without needing the First Amendment. As I
fathom, First Amendment is bill to the Constitution of the United States
guaranteeing the right of free expression, includes freedom of assembly,
freedom of press, freedom of religion and freedom of speech. So, does it
also include freedom of evasiveness and perhaps, fabrication?

The reason that people who question the reality of the holocaust aresociety.
criticized is that the Nazi extermination of 6 million Jews is
historical fact. People who deny this fact are considered to be
denying this particular piece of history because of their prejudice
against Jewish people.
Criticizing people for denying reality is not the same as denying them
freedom of speech.

Freedom of speech is the right to express an opinion in public without
being restrained or censored. Ordinarily, the United States is
prejudiciously portrayed as the paragon of free expression. I
distinctly destine to pick Americanism apart. Each and everyone in
many regions across the globe is entitled to opine his opinion freely.
The United States did not invent the right of free expression. It is
not exclusive to American Constitution or its amendments. Freedom of
expression is openly practiced therein as long as Islam is incessantly
denigrated. But, if someone questioned the holocaust or its chronicle,
for instance, he is instantly subjected to counterfeit allegations of
antisemitism. This is my endeavour concern of American double
standard. When a Muslim Commits mass murder, he is unhesitatingly
labelled with perpetrating terror. However, if a white supremacist
committed mass murder with even high rate of fatalities, he is
classified as a demented and atypical individual. I have no idea how
to illustrate this plain contradiction. How could you be fairish and
oppressive simultaneously? I respect decent Americans. But, as to
Americanism, how could you consistently be guilty, jury and judge at
the same time? I do not destine to repudiate everything about your
culture. At the same time, I believe my alleged testimony is somewhat
sane and relevantly presentable. Ultimately, I sincerely wish each and
every American friend who is receiving this message a prosperous
celebration of Thanksgiving with family, friends and loved ones.
Impeachment without decisive evidence is unbearable. Affection without
practical signs is inconsiderable. Life is shorter to be unwisely
wasted in grief. Brave men are the ones hasten to proudly apologise
whenever they have committed a mistake. Faith is our eminent resort
for attaining Providential Grace.

admiration, pride, self-esteem and substantial confidence. Autistic
children are brilliant and just lovely. Braille is my guide to
traditional edification. Assistive technology is my portal to broad
communication with people everywhere around the world. Donald Trump is
basically petulant and misanthrope. Women who seek to have a
relationship with married men are love stealers. Sugared food is
everyone's unbeatable enticement. Intimacy is beyond mere involvement
of having intercourse. It is initially about genuine affection and
closeness. Dawn is my favourite time of the day. Friday is my
favourite day of the week. I usually have chocolate biscuits and
sugarless greentea on a regular Friday morning. Indeed, these are two
strange things to combine. Medina Dates are my favourite fruit. I tend
to shop online for them on a periodical basis. Who is the famous person
Scottish author and historian, Thomas Carlyle.
Thank you and sincerest regards, Bob
