I get it, the Holocaust is not important today even though it happened. � That is merely a subjective and ethnocentric view on my families history. Perhaps you have a memory of your family as well. Are we, the survivors, supposed to forget because it has not happened to your family and mot in this moment, materially. Obviously not. And in my case the non-existence of my family is of no concern to you, or other Canadians in general it would seem. � As for the persistence and pervasiveness of Antisemitism in the Anglo-Saxon political culture this dis-ease has infected even the Jewish assimilated Canadians who also use the term ‘Jew’ even though it is a Nazi insult found on the yellow badge star. � So none of all that is materiel and is filed away under parlour antisemitism. � Do not bother to consider being ostracized from academia since 1980 from York University Department of Social and Political Thought as well as Political Science. Something to do with being a Bundist who supported Palestine. However, the Palestine Embassy did not object to my Identity and I worked as Attaché politique for Abdullah Abdullah during the war of 1982-85 where I wrote the documentary study on the Sabra & Shatila massacre. That was the prelude to the war now on Gaza. � The only credibility or rationale for the subjectivity to which I am subjected is the commonality of its shared heritage and reinforcing mechanisms of Anglo assimilationism. No wonder the Québecois want to leave your domain. I agree. � Dr abrahim Montréal, Kébèk � � � From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Marv Gandall via groups.io � On Sun, Sep 1, 2024 at 12:54 PM, abraham Weizfeld PhD wrote: ‘’Pride’’, you speak of pride to a second-generation refugee Holocaust survivor. You have to be kidding. Is it so difficult to recognize national oppression? That is equivalent to Holocaust denial. The target was the Jewish working-class. Get it. � Rest assured, Abraham, that I'm not a Holocaust denier. While your parents were Holocaust survivors, you cannot deny that you are a comfortable educated Western professional who has likely not been exposed to more than the polite “parlour antisemitism” of fools. Consequently, I’m not persuaded that your vicarious self-identification with the Yiddish-speaking nation in Eastern Europe is justified in that your conditions in no way resembles the oppression experienced by that community and the tragic end which befell it. � -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
