		<description><![CDATA[There's another problem with Benjamin Netanyahu's "it's 1938 and Iran is Nazi Germany" speech beyond its inflammatory rhetoric: its destructive power.  People who are told they are no good often fulfill that prophecy, and Israeli politicians are once again invoking a painful memory.  Is this a wise thing to do just to sell a war with Iran?]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I just finished writing an in-depth piece based Benjamin Netanyahu&#8217;s statement, &quot;It&#8217;s 1938 and Iran is Germany.” The more I heard this, I was ashamed at how low Netanyahu stooped just to sell a war with Iran. In all the fear-mongering propagandist chatter the Israeli politicians have been spitting like a fountain, I have yet to hear anyone ask the big question: “I wonder what Germans are thinking of this comparison?” </p>
<p>I have read many accusations online from Jewish groups claiming Germany is trying to rewrite its past and hide its sins. There is no way this could be done, and I say that with total confidence. The fact Israel exists is the greatest standing testament to what was done; the Jewish homeland would not have come about any other way. It is a fulfillment of prophecy the homeland was established, and continues to be fulfilled as the ingathering returns Jews to their ancient home. </p>
<p>Modern Germany is a good friend to Israel and <a href="http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1154525926927&amp;pagename=JPost/JPArticle/ShowFull">provides support </a> because they feel it is their obligation to aid Israel for their sins. They have also erected a huge memorial to the survivors that consists of over <a href="http://www.scrapbookpages.com/Berlin2002/JewishMemorial/index.html">2,711 giant slab blocks </a>. That would be hard to hide if someone were rewriting history. The two governments have a track record of <a href="http://www.germany.info/relaunch/politics/new/pol_40yrs_German_Israel_Relations_03_2005.html">good political relations </a>. A new <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/6132796.stm">synagogue was recently opened </a> after the last one was destroyed 68 years ago. </p>
<p>These comparisons in light of such good relations must be heartbreaking for the German people. They will never forget on their own, and the more Jewish politicians invoke the image, it tells not only the Germans, but also the rest of the word, you still cannot and will not forgive on the whole. The Old Testament surely would back up the position of how important it is to forgive others, as God forgives you of much more. </p>
<p>They have the right to a little peace of mind; they also have many scars on the inside, too. A Jewish politician once said that war between the Jews and Arabs will end when Arabs learn to love their children as much as Jews do. Today, there are two full generations, and a solid start on a third in both countries. As long as Jews continue to beat Germans over the head with the Holocaust, new generations will continue to be scarred instead of learning how to live together. </p>
<p>Many often say you are a self-fulfilling prophecy; what you think, you are. As long as Jewish groups continue to tell Germans they are bad, they will become just that. Is it any wonder there has been a sharp rise in anti-Semitism and increased membership in neo-nazi groups? </p>
<p>It&#8217;s time to stop beating them over the head with the Holocaust club. It&#8217;s time to forgive. </p>
