At The Turn Of The Twenty-first Century,

We Live In A World Of Communication, Everyone Gets Information About Everyone Else. There Is Universal Comparison And You Don't Just Compare Yourself With The People Next Door, You Compare Yourself To People All Over The World And With What Is Being Presented As The Decent, Proper And Dignified Life. It's The Crime Of Humiliation.

Freedom Is The Slogan Of The Strong, Who Feel Self Confident, Self Sufficient To Do It Alone.

The Proof Of My Jewishness Is That Iniquities Done By Israel Pain Me Much More Than Iniquities Perpetrated By Any Other Country.

I Worry About Younger Generations Who Were Born To View Their Country Trampling On Humanity Of Everyone That Comes In Its Way, As The 'normal State Of Affairs" - Because They Knew No Other. We Know How Easy It Is To Shed, Under Such Circumstances, The Thin And Frail Veneer Of Civilization, Not To Mention The Moral Standards Of Which The Jews Were Presumed To Be The World's Teachers.

With Globalization And With A Lot Of Power Evaporating From The Nation-states, The Late-19th Century Established Hierarchies Of Importance, Or 'pecking Orders' Of Cultures, Presenting Assimilation As An Advancement Or Promotion, Dissolved.
