Curious - I think you will find it very interesting indeed. Brenner is a Marxist Jew so he does have an agenda but when I have raised points he makes with American Jewish Zionists all they can say is "you don't understand" or "people's actions then cannot be judged by today's standards" or "the Israeli court was wrong (to find Eichmann's pal guilty of complicity in the Holocaust) he was a great man".

So I am inclined to think that Brenner is an accurate historian.

Which means, of course, that Ahmedinejad has a record of talking ignorant rubbish. But the (Brenner's) truth is damning and much more interesting that Ahmedinejad's appeal to what seems convenient to him. After all, if there had been no holocaust, why would the Zionists have gained from the great outpouring of sympathy after WWII (whether they deserved to benefit from it or not?)

But I'm afraid I'm dragging this thread off topic, which I shouldn't do.
