It is obvious that we, from every aspect, have a better “pretext” for many of our actions. Yet there is also a monster in each of us, and if we continue to assume that we are always justified, that monster can grow. Therefore, we Jews are obliged to always hold the German example before our eyes. Already today I am addressing a phenomenon which is growing: there is an entire sector in the Jewish public which I unhesitatingly define as a copy of the German Nazis.

Look at the children of the Jewish Hebron settlers: they are exactly like the Hitler Youth. From infancy they are pumped with ideas that all Arabs are bad, of how every Gentile is against us. They are turned into paranoids, they think themselves as a master race, they are exactly like the Hitler Youth. There is a very dangerous tendency of lenience towards that sector. MK Rehavam Zeʻevi was brought into the government coalition,³ and people still think that the Kahane movement can be dealt with by the usual means. I am reminded of those conservatives in Germany who collaborated with Hitler out of exactly the same reasons and who made the same mistakes as we now do.

Because of this polemic, somebody (unsuccessfully) tried to sue Prof. Zimmerman for libel.

1936: Berlin and Rome officially recognized General Franco’s government in Spain. On the same day, Benito Mussolini authorized a Fascist expeditionary corps to be sent to Spain.
1938: Spanish Nationalist forces pushed Spanish Republican forces back across the River Ebro in Spain.
1939: At Salzburg, Austria, Adolf Schicklgruber told the Fascist Foreign Minister Count Galeazzo Ciano that Benito Mussolini’s invasion of Albania was to blame for the Royal Air Force being allowed to establish bombers in Greece within reach of the Third Reich’s main fuel supply, the oil fields of Ploiești, Romania. In reality, Ioannis Metaxas’s government refused to allow the British to threaten the Romanian oilfields in order to avoid provoking the Reich.
1940: Chancellor Adolf Schicklgruber and Fascist Foreign Minister Galeazzo Ciano met to discuss Rome’s disastrous invasion of Greece. Axis submarine U-65 sank Allied tanker Congonian one hundred twenty-five miles west of Freetown, Sierra Leone at 1802 hours, killing somebody.

Maggiore Baracca set course for Bordeaux, France in the northern Atlantic Ocean at 1130 hours. At about 1735 hours, she spotted smoke, but an accidental fire in the starboard diesel engine caused her to slow her approach. Nevertheless, she caught up with freighter Lilian Moller of Allied convoy SLS 53D, carrying pig iron from Calcutta in India for the United Kingdom, at 2147 hours. She fired a torpedo from a bow tube, which missed. At 2303 hours, she fired another torpedo from a bow tube, hitting the freighter in the stern. Lilian Moller sank at 2347 hours. Somebody spotted one lifeboat with survivors, but it would never be seen again, thus all 49 aboard the freighter were lost as the result of the sinking. (Forty-two of those lost were Chinese sailors.)
1941: Tōkyō requested Berlin to not conclude a separate peace with any common enemies of the two empires, but did not share its plans to attack Imperial America either. Five large Axis carrier submarines, each containing midget submarines, departed from the Kure Naval Base for Pearl Harbor. (Joseph Rochefort’s U.S. Navy cryptanalytic team reported no Imperial carrier movement.)

The 4th Panzer Army launched a 400-tank attack 70 miles west of Moscow, supported by 3 infantry divisions; Soviet 30th Army fell back northward to Klin, while Soviet 16th Army was pushed south to Istra. One hundred twenty miles south of Moscow, the 3rd Panzer Army became held up at Tula, with its latest attempt to surround the Soviet garrison there foiled by the newly-arrived Soviet 413th Rifle Division. Lastly, the Regia Marina, which had not heard from Alessandro Malaspina for two months, officially listed him as lost at sea, with the reason being unknown.
1942: About one thousand Jews from ghettos of Grodno, Byelorussia arrived at Auschwitz; the Axis registered 165 men and 65 women, but annihilated the remaining 770. Additionally, Marshal Philippe Pétain signed a constitutional document permitting Prime Minister Pierre Laval to make laws and issue decrees on his own signature only.
1943: The Axis captured Zhytomyr, Ukraine as Berlin suffered an Allied bombing that resulted in 131 deaths, but was otherwise light in damage, and the RAF lost nine flightcraft in addition to fifty‐three people.
1944: Adolf Eichmann ordered the deportation of 18,000 Jews from Budapest to concentration camps.
1945: António de Oliveira Salazar retained his seat as the Prime Minister of Portugal in a re-election, but twenty-one Axis leaders faced indictment at the first open session of the International Military War Crimes Tribunal.
1977: Kurt Schuschnigg, Austrofascist Chancellor, dropped dead.

    i’m aware and that’s not my intention; in this context liberals refers to most democrats and that’s why i called them a voting block.
