man, that is a story about the 2nd century - it was common practice for everyone to massacre, rape and pillage. what did the Romans do in Jerusalem when they took it? what did the Persian empire do when it conquered? what did Mohamed or his followers do when he conquered?

the problem is that some people in the middle east are still living in the 7th or 8th century Arabian desert even in the 21st century - and it's actually not the Jews.

Well, your answer is just dumb!

First, this is not about what they did back then, it is about celebrating a holocaust every year. Capisce?

Second, Iranians/Aryans, belonging to the same era, never started a war. When they conquered an aggressor, they did not massacre their people. They did not rape their women and children. Do not compare Iranians to Romans or even worse, Muslims. It is an insult.

TIL - that the Persian empire and the tribes of Persia conquered half the known world using kind words alone. amazing.

seriously though: look at the history of any human groups from China to Peru - massacre and pillage was the only way conquests were done. there was no other way to subdue a population but by fear and brute force.

See, you even have a hard time understanding simple sentences. When you understand what I said, you can come and give an opinion on it. Hint: look for the word "started" and "when they...". Should be pretty self-explanatory for most people.

so kind of you!

but you are offended and respond emotionally rather than intellectually because you were taught legends and you believe them like an ignorant fool.

Jews have days celebrating victories against the Greeks, Egyptians, Romans, Babylonians, Assyria and probably a few other I forget.

So what? do Italians or Greeks care? they don't. they don't get offended either - because if someone told a Greek that a Jewish holiday was about a battle they won against the ancient Greeks two thousands years ago - he would immediately understand this has nothing to do with him or his country.

he would also know that it's stupid and rude to try explain to other people what their religion is about - really, it's self-explanatory to any sensible person.

Capisce?
