Exactly Reffo. Another thing, whatever supposed "powerful Zionist Lobby" there is in America is way out dwarfed by America's oil considerations. Saudia Arabia has America by the family jewels.

@Pleepleus, while I don't consider America the most likely country for a Holocaust to occur again, I certainly don't consider America exempt. The Jews in Germany 70 years ago were at least, if not more, assimilated than the Jews in America are today and most Americans are not pro-Israel or pro-Palestinian, but apathetic. However, as history shows this apathy can quickly be turned into antisemitism.

Nothing is impossible, but I think it is extremely unlikely for another Shoah to occur in the US. And for Mediocrates to take one crackpot remark by an Arab in New Jersey and proclaim we are on the road to Nuremburg is absolutely ridiculous in my opinion.
