Jewish Identity & Proselytizing

There are very few things that are so utterly taboo that saying them will guarantee being lampooned to no end. Try saying black people are less intelligent than whites, that young girls should get circumcised to maintain their purity, or try denying the Holocaust.

Let's focus on the last example for a moment. The fundamental problem that I find with reactions to Holocaust denial is that the Holocaust has become the focal point of Jewish identity. OK, so Hitler tried to wipe Jews off the face of the earth. Because of the continued, unrelenting emphasis on the Holocaust, Jews have essentially stopped marketing themselves as God's Chosen People in favour of Hitler's Non-Chosen People. The Holocaust has so completely dominated Jewish speech, identity, and intellect that there really seems nothing greater to them. Isn't your status as the Chosen People greater? Isn't Moses or the Torah greater? Is nothing greater in your eyes than the actions of the Nazis? In Islam, we say Allahu Akbar (God is Greater). Were the Nazis so great and powerful that they have replaced all reference to God and the things He has honoured?

Common knowledge says that Jews don't proselytize. Seeing that Holocaust awareness and prevention has essentially become an idol that Jews adore in place of the Sacred, it is clear that they do proselytize, and quite aggressively so. They sure don't carry the Message of God to others. But they will shamelessly push their own agenda when it comes to forcing Holocaust remembrances down our collective throats.

Wake up guys: Hitler simply doesn't equal God. Please get your priorities straight.
