The USHMM made a grave error that I believe speaks to how and why The Holocaust is ignored, misrepresented and manipulated.
Rather than utilize that accurate comment by Governor Tim Walz comparing children in Minnesota in hiding to Anne Frank due to being profiled by the color of their skin, the language they speak, last names that don't sound American enough to the gun wielding xenophobic ICE thugs, etc, the museum chose to announce publicly that it was "offended" by such a comparison, therefore missing an opportunity to EDUCATE and ELUCIDATE the obvious parallels to Nazi occupied Europe and the treatment of the "other."
If the museum leadership cannot see what is obvious to any of us who have studied the Holocaust for any length of time, my strong feeling is that they should shut their doors. "Never Again" means "NEVER AGAIN" while it is happening - and it is happening in Minnesota. History is useful when we can learn from it, and when someone's ego is too offended to teach, they've lost the plot.
Plenty of information that I was not aware of. For example, many Nazi collaborators have escaped to Australia after WWII. That's why there are so many hate mongers there. Another large community are the dependents of the Templers who were expelled from the German Colonies in then Palestine by the Brits during WWII for joining the Nazi party.
The Nazis were everywhere after The Holocaust - many of them ended up at NASA in our Space program in the USA. And yes, our government protected them. Hitler was very close to creating a rocket. All those men came here under assumed and not so assumed names.
If you look closely at Vatican 2 - the document from the Catholic Church in the 1970's that supposedly was a reaction to the Church's obvious involvement in The Holocaust, and the releasing the Jews from the responsibility of murdering Jesus - it kind of does and kind of doesn't. What it DOES do is open it's arms to Islam, and in Catholic countries such as Spain, Italy and France, the antisemitism was hiding not so secretly hiding in plain site. Now jihad is deeply imbedded in these countries, and the focus is still on the Jews.
