Can you say the first sentence again but this time say it in English, please?
It is generally accepted that stealing is an immoral act yet if you rationalise stealing by means of a false belief that you are human because you are a Jew and Gentiles are animals in form of people and therefore you have right to enjoy robbing gentiles in similar way as people enjoy taking honey from the bee then such rationalisation in fact provoke hatred and evil among people.
