RE: Protocols... -sidebar



Wolf:

I am no defender of Henry Ford. However, you present a factually and
historically inaccurate picture if you fail to mention that Ford's extremist
viewpoint diminished over the years, and it is possible he regretted some of
the excesses of his rhetoric later on in his life.

And I have read far worse comments about Jews made by other Jews. Let's be
careful about painting with a broad brush, chaverim.
