Some support for the ideas Truman expressed in his diary.

Saffire "has no sense of proportion." Some research I've heard about indicates he's wrong on the number of Jews killed in the Holocaust (it looks like the total number murders was 6 million, which would put the Jews at 3-4 million). More importantly, he asserts that the Jews endured "genocide beyond all other groups' suffering." Russian communists killed way more Christians, just for starters. And why not read about the horrors in Ukraine, where Stalin's forced famine led to people eating horse manure and their own children out of desperation.

The Jews have gone through a lot, some of the worst, there's no doubt about it. But they should stop trying to claim the monopoly on suffering and calamity.
