Sharon and Hitler share space at Anne Frank house
Jerusalem Post ^ | Jan. 28, 2004 | JPOST.COM STAFF

Posted on 01/28/2004 8:04:28 AM PST by yonif

A photo of PM Ariel Sharon alongside one of Adolf Hitler is currently being exhibited at the Anne Frank Museum in Amsterdam, reported Army Radio Wednesday.

The photos are presented as part of an exhibition on 'borderline cases' aimed at testing the borders between freedom of expression and discrimination, according to the museum's spokesman.

Viewers are shown a video, in which demonstrators held a poster of Hitler and Sharon in protest over Israel's policies in the Palestinian territories.

They are then asked to vote on whether in the name of fighting racism, freedom of speech may be infringed on.

That cuts it - if I ever get over to Holland, I will be skipping the Anne Frank home. This is a shame, as I would have liked to have seen it.

It is truly disgusting how some people will use the memories of the dead to advance their sick, Socialist, anti-Western agenda.

I have been to the house there and it is remarkable (a few years ago). But I do not understand why this anti-Israel, political and sickening thing is being placed there.

Forget that - I'd go and pull an Ambassador, and toss that crap right in a pond.

"Are there any Jews with any guts left in Holland?"

Nope....they are here in the states protesting "Passions of Christ"!

I dunno. Apparently not.

I have no doubt as to precisely what I would do should something so foul exist within reasonable travelling distance from where I live, and it wouldn't be pretty.

If someone wants to buy me a plane ticket to Holland, I'll rip it to pieces.

Has the whole of Europe gone mad?

I can't believe that anyone would place a photopgraph of Sharon next to that of Hitler. Granted some of Sharon's tactics have been a bit rough - faced with the same problems, I might have ordered much more harsh actions - but he's been forced to act in the face of unrelenting terror unleashed against civilians.

Hitler ordered mass murder against unarmed civilians who possed no threat to the German Army or to German civilians. Indeed, Hitler's orders were stupid, for they caused civilians in the occupied countries to join the partisans.

If Europe in general and Holland in particular hasn't the discrimination to separate Sharon from Hitler, I wonder why we spent all that time and money defending the place from the Soviets.

Can you link me to that post?

I've been called a truth killer and satan worshipper in the last week or so, but I missed that rant.

And it's always for the same morons who wonder where the idea that right wingers are bigots come from. Surprise, they should look in the mirror, cause just like the left, they exist here.

Ping to the ruthless warriors of the elite forces of the Zionist cabal.
