      Or, more darkly, that the lesson of the Holocaust was that European Jews are white, and not legitimate targets for genocide, unlike, say, brown folks hogging all that valuable land. From which it follows that to deny Israel the right to do to the Palestinians what our forebears did to Red Indians and Africans is just antisemitic gatekeeping.
