B.T., Surely you realize that those same Jews were also Black? This was over 2,000 years ago in Egypt! As a child, Moses was taken into the Pharaoh's house by his daughter and raised as a prince. How do you think that could have been possible without physically looking like those who raised him? Racism is so ingrained in most people's minds, they lack common sense when dealing with what should be obvious. My point being, comparing that situation to what Black people went through during and after slavery is comparing apples to apples...isn't it? Really think about it...Personally, instead of reparations, the entire world needs more "education" as far as what is real and what was made up and fed to the masses.   See 17 other replies

No, not Stockholm syndrome, which is the identification with the kidnapper/hijacker, the idea that "we're in this together" that somehow the criminal is the one wronged.What we're talking about here is cultural and socio-economic domination of people over another. Its more to do with societal indoctrination rather than a "buddy-buddy" "in the same boat" relationship.   See 17 other replies

why not question Black people, "Do you think jews should get Reparations for all the work they did building the pyramids in Egypt (africa)"   See 17 other replies

the Marshall plan went to American allies. It was offered to all of Europe, but the Warsaw Pact wouldn't take it(there was strings attached). There is a difference between paying a debt and helping out someone in need. I am not an expert on the post-wwII construction, but it seems to me we had more control over that than the Iraqi reconstruction. After all, we split up Germany, and had military Governors, and Japan still does not have a "real" army. Any way I think this whole reparations thing is just the American sense of entitlement, with another name.   See 17 other replies
