[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Judaism is a religion, not a race. However, the Nazis treated Jews as inferior to the Aryan race, which is a racial concept  the Nazi's falsely promoted to the Germans to denigrate Jews and other non-Aryans.  I am Jewish, and I am bothered by people who refer to Jews as another race--we're not and that's a holdover from Nazi Germany that doesn't belong in modern rhetoric.  I think Whoopi's thoughts sounded better in her head than coming out of her mouth, but she shouldn't have said what she said because from the Nazi's perspective, Jews were a race and their intent was to get rid of them--this wasn't a white on white thing, so she's wrong.

Also, people who waltz around saying "well the Nazis killed other people too" are the same people who say all lives matter and I'm done with it.  The Holocaust was a systematic effort to exterminate the Jewish people. That was its primary purpose and yes the Nazis did kill others that did not fit into their Aryan race, but that wasn't why they came up with the final solution. the final solution was the rid the earth of Jews and they did a pretty good job of nearly succeeding.

I’m not Jewish but that’s how I’ve always viewed it as well. I thought everybody knew this. [/quote]
