As a Gentile, I have long been entirely mystified by the propensity of so many American Jews to be anti-gun ownership, especially in light of the Nazi perpetrated mass murder and ethnic cleansing known as the Holocaust. It seems as if they have, in the space of 60 years - a lifetime really -, completely forgotten their own terrible history.
What follows below is a critically important message
from Rabbi Dovid Bendory who heads up Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership, I urge you to watch the video all the way through:
The landmark film where only the police and military had firearms was called Schindler's List. There are a lot of American Jews who distance themselves from their history.
ReplyDeleteAs the Rabbi said, "The right to honorable self defense" should stand as a cornerstone principle for Jews to rally around. "Get in their face and protest for firearms freedom."
Thank-you L.A.!
ReplyDeleteBlessings!... and Shalom.
LL's point is frightening: Schindler smuggled not a few arms and ammunition, too, to Jews. Somehow Spielberg forgot that part.
