Rep. Rashida Tlaib: “But Palestinians are not just numbers. Behind these numbers are real people — mothers, fathers, sons, daughters — who have had their lives stolen from them and their families torn apart. And we should not be trying to hide it. These are innocent children and babies who have been bombed in their tents, burned alive, dismembered and deliberately starved to death. Where is our shared humanity in this chamber? There is so much anti-Palestinian racism in this chamber that my colleagues don’t even want to acknowledge that Palestinians exist at all, not when they’re alive and now not even when they’re dead. It’s absolutely disgusting. This is genocide denial.”
I Wouldn’t expect any less from this gold plated cesspool founded on genocide, slavery, and exploitation.
“herp derp but we saved the world and beat the Nazis!” Yeah, we fought and defeated the Axis… after they destroyed our pacific fleet and brought the war to us. Prior to that, eugenics were popular here, and practiced.

Just dogshit, all the way back to the zealots fleeing Europe to be bigger religious prides and nutters.
List of companies involved in the Holocaust
I had no idea the Associated Press aided in the Holocaust.
Like, financially? Does it just mean they sold photographs to Nazi newspapers?
Not to mention that they didn’t join the war until the Russians and Germans had bled themselves dry on the eastern front and the soviets were well on their way to Berlin.
If you wanted to debate who won the war based on how many of their men, women, military and civilian sacrificed themselves willingly and unwillingly, the Russians were far and away the obvious victors.
20 million compared to America’s half million during the war.
The Russians died and killed more Germans than the Americans.
The absolute scale of the Eastern Front compared to the Western Front is mind-boggling, and American media and education downplays the tremendous sacrifices made by the Red Army and how much they accomplished.
During the war, the Western Allies were more than happy to have Nazi Germany and the USSR bleed each other out as much as possible, and then pretend they were team members on equal footing.
Lol russia was allied with the Nazis until Hitler decided that he didn’t need them anymore, and the only reason russia survived was because of the lend lease. Stop trying to make russia sound like some great nation in WWII.
And American businesses didn’t mind being allied with the Nazis leading up to the war (Hitler saw Henry Ford, an out and out antisemite, as an inspiration and was given the highest nazi award to a foreigner), plenty of American businesses either directly or indirectly helped to finance the German war machine leading up to the war, Nazi Germany didn’t build a multimillion dollar war machine in a global vacuum … and then America allied with Nazi veterans AFTER the war … it’s basically Nazi scientists that sent them to the moon.
Everyone made deals with the devil to benefit themselves at different times for different reasons.
We can’t point out one side allying with nazis and ignore others who did the same.
Even in Canada where I’m from a lot of critics and historians have pointed out that after the war … it was far more easier and acceptable to be a Nazi or a Fascist then it was to be a Socialist or Communist.
Your timeline is way off here. The US joined the war against Germany on Dec. 11th 1941, less than six months after Germany’s invasion of the USSR which had not yet even stalled out in front of Moscow. The Soviets weren’t “well on their way to Berlin” until late 1944, nearly three years later. Your other points are valid enough that you don’t need to utterly mangle your first one.
So, what I’m hearing is we have lots of room to do better. 😃
Not the least of whom happened to be Fred Trump, the former president’s father. Unfortunately there is a large gap in his FBI file before and after the war, where we would expect to find documented proof of these activities. Still, it seems pretty clear what happened, and he certainly didn’t hide his racism publicly.
