What I’m saying is that Jews made a fatal mistake and they paid for it dearly: They took no lessons from their own history.
I admire them for their great victory in the Warsaw ghetto but I am unable to comprehend how did it happen that their leaders allowed all those people to go to their death unaware of what was going on in the concentration camps.
If a criminal harms a child because the parents neglected to protect it. The parents are to be blamed too. Those who were teaching the Jewish people to remain Jewish and strangers in foreign countries, they had an obligation to care for them. Those I blame and not the people!

Irish are excluded because Che was half Irish (and half Basque! How could God create such a creature?)

I love Che! This portrait of him I’ve made out of stone.

Clothing allowed us to explore. Cold weather gave us technology. Evolution led from black to white, circumstance led to civilization.
I think I’ll put my foot on the slippery slope again but I feel that I may have the help of multiregionalist Epimethean on this one!
Homo sapiens sapiens were already white in South Africa when they commenced their trip to the north at around 100,000 years ago. Climate may change slightly the color of the skin but not the shape of the nose and the color of the eyes. I believe that the races were already there at the stage of Homo erectus
As for technology, Gobekli Tepe predates Stonehenge by 8,000 to 9,000 years and therefore I think that cold weather did not help the Cro-Magnons as it did not help the Neanderthals of Europe before them.
