I didn't say it does or doesn't; merely that governments cannot eradicate it from the face of the earth by banning it's symbols and free speech.


Well said, sweetie, well said.
Anyway the tourism industry of the Channel Islands would be...the 'f' word we are not permitted to use.

And of course, there's no business like shoah business either.

yes, something that I was suggesting. The concern is not with the very few nationalist groups that have very little political weight, but rather the interest that totalitarian, socialist politics, at the heart of the EU, has with Nazism faced with its own apathy toward a real danger in fundamental Islam.


Holocaust denial - a central tenet of the propaganda of fundamental Islam.

Woah, hold your horses there.
Is that a Mel Brooks quote?

Okay, I should stop drinking Malibu in the middle of the day.

Just finished reading Eichmann In My Hands.
My apologies - I had assumed Harry was dressing as a member of the Afrika Korps. He was - but with one error - they didn't wear those big, fat Nazi inverted Swastika arm-bands.

I had assumed they did. Duh to me.
(And my Grandfather was a Desert Rat too. I'll just go outside and shoot myself. Oh no, I can't. Damned Nanny State and their gun controls.)
No matter, shoot that piece of filth

On the subject of disaffected Muslim culture,

"Not much to worry about? After all, it is a victimless crime; nothing really compared to beheading hostages or flying planes into building. Yet on another level it is troubling because it is indicative of the growing disconnection between sections of the Muslim community in the West and the democratic processes. Instead of tolerance there is destruction, instead of lobbying and working for change through usual channels there is vigiliantism."

and a good response from Melanie Phillips, quite impressive http://www.melaniephillips.com/diary/archives/001017.html

"So to this Labour MP, Muslims should turn up to the Holocaust Day ceremony because other people than Jews were murdered by the Nazis, too. So the Jewish victims the main victims can be air-brushed out of the remembrance. Anyone ‘interested in human rights’ can safely turn up because there were enough victims from other ethnic groups to ignore the Jews altogether.

To repeat -- Mahmood is a Labour MP. This vileness is what the Labour party which never stops stuffing its ‘anti-racism’ and ‘social inclusion’ down our throats has now descended to.

And from the mainstream media total silence."

What on Earth did the Muslim Council of Britain hope to achieve by making such an inappropriate announcement at this time? A PR stunt that has misfired? Holocaust denial would appear to be common among Islamic fundamentalists. I recently read an article by an Islamic fundamentalist who defended Rudolf Hoess, the Kommandant of Auschwitz, alleging that he had been 'tortured' by his Allied captors and that his confessions were false. Horrifying stuff.

While I disagree with Melanie Phillips when she asserts that this incident reflects upon the Labour Party as a whole, I agree with her assertion that the Holocaust and the current situation in Israel cannot be compared. The former was the attempted obliteration of an entire race from the face of the earth whereas the latter was a situation that arose as a result of a nation having to defend its very survival from the beginning. After all, when external forces withdrew from the newly created Israel in 1948 surrounding Arab nations announced their intention to 'push Israel into the sea' and immediately attempted to do so. (I wonder how many people are aware that the Grand Muti of Jerusalem was a guest of Hitler in Berlin or that there was a Muslim contingent of the SS, a grotesque alliance based, I presume, on the maxim 'my enemy's enemy is my friend' or that many Arab nations gave refuge to former Nazis.)
