Outright lies are in vogue (my apology to the magazine). It seems that people folllw, and no one uses their own brains anymore. You make a good point.

Yes. Outright lies. Outright. Not exaggerations. Just lies. And people just fall for them. What a world.

Shalom~ Most if the worldd is on an anti- Sentic rage seems like forever. They want Jews dead, many Jews dont care about Israel. Dont believe in Hashem, or have never been trained, you can find them in the US Congress, Senate, Kamala Harris and daughter. Now the Brits are being treated like Jews? No rights, unless they snile at Those Criminals who snuck jinto Britain. Anyway, same in the USa. We are deplorarabals as we are white! Bas Noach, ,,,Panagiota

Yup. Hitler's back in vogue alright. Hard to believe, isn't it? Speaks to the level of scum humanity has become.

I did not know this. Sad that people can do that, but sometimes people can be lead in the wrong direction by some compelling person who can lead them in any direction.

Hitler mesmerized the Germans --- only because they were ready to be mesmerized. Same with Hamas' and Hezbollah's leaders now. Their populations are willing accomplices to their murderous ways.
