Lives in Limbo: Jewish Refugees in Portugal, 1940-1945

[@China_Secret_Police]

I never understood how a people could go from surviving a genocide, to immediately committing one.

[@SirAntoniousBlock]

Well that's how people learn, abused children sometimes become abusers themselves.

[@dnstone1127]

The only way to guarantee against genocide is having your own land with strong borders.

[@SirAntoniousBlock]

@@dnstone1127 Didn't really help the Cambodians or the Rwandans.

[@dnstone1127]

@@SirAntoniousBlock Rwanda was a European construct which included many tribes, Cambodia was a Communist take over aimed at anyone who disagreed, not really the same as a deliberately targetted racial genocide.

[@SirAntoniousBlock]

@@dnstone1127 There were many different historical reasons for genocide in various countries and being a nation state is certainly no guarantee against it, in fact history shows that much of the time it's that very state carrying it out.

Portugal was a limbo in that time, but America.......

It's always like this, same selfish pattern. Boasting to world non stop about our suffering, our story, our pain, while in fact at the same time these people, doing exactly same if not worse, treatment to other people, which is the Palestinians. humiliating facts, so lame, so Hypocrite.

[@Tacit_Tern]

Palestinian refugees for nearly a century.

What a odd map! Where are another coutries on the map? Especialy Poland which helped the Jews so much. Polish people Love Jews a lot. Will always help the other nations.

[@Tacit_Tern]

Same with Ukraine. It's where all of the Jewish of Russia fled from Stalin during the Pogroms. Then what happened in 1935, which YT doesn't allow to be talked about.

[@DieMuecke186]

@@Tacit_Tern What are you talking about? The OUN nationalists and many Ukrainians were eagerly taking part in pogroms, sometimes even days before the Germans invaded those cities. Sure, there were always righteous civilians, who helped the helpless, but still. There is no question that Polish and Ukrainians have a problematic history with their jewish population. Look, there were even pogroms in Poland in 1945 after they were already liberated by the Soviets. Its not that easy

[@jerzywieckowski7610]

What you talkin about? My grandfather was saving Jews during Holocaust in Warsaw he was not even afraid of German she was afraid of Polish Neighbors

[@Rotebuehl1]

This is about a specific group and that happened in Europe, not elsewhere!

[@ronniskittensandart]
