As Holocaust Memorial Day January 27 2025
From the article: "Pollock stresses that Holocaust education must also explore the roots of antisemitism and how it culminated in the Nazis’ systematic attempt to exterminate Europe’s Jewish population. “It didn’t start with the gas chambers, didn’t even start with the brick through a window,” she explains, urging young people to understand the incremental nature of persecution and the dangers of complicity and indifference. " Actually, it started with Christian demonization of the Jews. Such as the blood libel and blaming contemporary Jews for the death of Jesus. Anti-semitism was so prevalent in European culture that England's 2 greatest writers, Shakespeare and Chaucer, both wrote anti-semitic works. There was even a racial component to it. The Jesuits forbade anyone with Jewish ancestors as far back as five generations from joining the order. The dreadful Nazi caricatures of Jews drew heavily on drawings featured in La Civiltà Cattolica (Catholic Civilization) an official periodical of the Jesuits whose articles had to be approved by the Vatican before being published. A professor at a small and prestigious New England college told me that his Jewish mother, an emigrant from Eastern Europe, blanched when she heard the church bells ringing in that small college town. Apparently, church bells ringing where she came from could signal the start of a pogrom. A good book to read on the subject is The Popes Against The Jews by David Kertzer. -

UR CNY Celebration?: Will you add Chinese OpenSource AI to your computer tonight?!!!
Sorry, but I forgot to mention that there are many who will be Celebrating the Chinese Lunar New Year engaged in other pursuits. For one thing, I have noticed far more flights flying overhead this evening. So, this means that those aboard are probably not installing the Chinese AI, DEEPSEEK, on their computers. Tons of flights, and tons of noise, this evening.... But, since this happens ONLY once per year... I can forgive this noise.... As long as the Chinese passengers are HAPPY, this evening, blasting overhead in their Boeing aircraft.... Then, this is what makes me happy, too, this year of the snake. Still, I just wonder.... Why would the Chinese be flying home on the eve of the Lunar New Year? Any ideas? This was a very loud one, might I add. If only I knew which noise-cancelling headphones might be most effective.... Then I would search for the cheapest price on Lazada....
