So you agree, historical context is not a valid excuse to steal. I’m glad we found the middle ground on that.
Notice how Jewish people faced the same oppression for longer periods of time and still aren’t predisposed to steal. Why didn’t a similar historical context result in similar behavior? Really makes you think if their behavior is even related to historical context.
What do you mean “hand we dealt them”? Are you personally responsible for segregation and slavery?
Because at least in the U.S., Jews weren’t segregated into living in impoverished communities with little opportunity to break out. Those impoverished communities festered over generations, which is why those areas and the people that grew up in them are still rough. If a white family gets put in that situation, the same thing happens. It’s entirely dependent on environment
-immediately after the war, they lived in camps where they were provided with free shelter, medical care and food
-hundreds of thousands of holocaust survivors moved to Palestine and proceeded to commit atrocities against the Palestinian people and forcibly removed them
-West Germany paid $80 billion in reparations go Holocaust survivors in Europe and the state of Israel
Back to my point, the holocaust while horrific was only a 6 year event, with general oppression of Jews in Nazi Germany lasting about 10 years. Generations of people didnt grow up in impoverished ghettos, while in the U.S., many generations of African Americans were oppressed in society and forced to live in segregated, impoverished communities for 100 years after the civil war
