I will grant that too.

But are you willing to grant that so are most Jews, most Moslems, most Buddhists, most animists, etc.?

Most people, regardless of race, creed, religion, nationality, hair color, and shoe size, just want to be left alone to be decent people doing decent things.

Unfortunately that fact has not stopped them from being used as pawns by those who call upon their nationalist and religious spirit as a means of rationalizing horrors.

It was otherwise very decent people who built the ovens in Auschwitz and Treblinka.
