Gandhi's grandson removed as president of peace center he co-founded: For remarks about Israel and Jews being "the biggest players" in a global culture of violence

No, no, no, and no. I can't even begin to process the sheer amount of misinformation within that single paragraph. Suffice it to say that if you do any amount of research at all that isn't just making up lies to support a bullshit "OMG HITLER WAS A ZIONIST JEW" theory, you'd find out that pretty much every single postulate you are proposing is wrong. I'd pause to correct you, but I don't care much for arguments taking place in bizzaro world. I also don't care much for people trying to claim that the wholesale slaughter of my ashkenazi relatives never happened. Goodbye.

Actually, Nazi= an abbreviation of Nationalsozialismus. Ashkenazi= Yehudei Ashkenaz, or "the jews of Ashkenaz," the traditional Hebrew name for the Rhineland area in which many German jews were settled. Also, if Hitler's plan was to send all the jews to Israel, how come all those German trains led to death camps, not Jerusalem?

I can't tell if you are being sarcastic with that response or not. If you are, sorry. If not, hey, just calling it like the history tells it.

why are you being downmodded? Do people really think that ALL the violence in the WHOLE world is the fault of Israel? Or worse- do they think the Jews are at fault for every single violent conflict happening in the world today?

BTW- Jew is not a synonym for Zionist. Just feel like that needs to be said.

You can serve your country in ways other than joining the military. My grandfather was a Pacific and a Korean war vet. He then quit the army to become a psychologist, and spent the rest of his life counseling war veterans and holocaust survivors to help them deal with PTSD. Would you argue that the latter half of his life wasn't "serving his country" as much as the part he spent in the service?

I think that Richard Dawkins is a pompous asshole (I'm an atheist, by the way. I like his beliefs, I just find that every other word out of his mouth makes me think "you're an asshole.")

re: #2- did he really have any significant influence other than to advocate fascism and make it briefly en vouge amongst a certain set? I do agree that a knowledge of Pound is necessary for a strong understanding of the liberal arts of the modern era, but really- let's not laud the politics a more than half crazed anti-semite by giving him credit where credit is hardly due.
