National Identity is only Notional Identity, to some
The recent report by main-stream media on the ructions that The Holocaust ‘Blame’ Bill is causing between Israel and Poland is yet again clear evidence of a biased infiltration of one set of forced ideals upon others and one that is hooked on a past that is used, simply, to justify the present - a present that evidences a clear direction towards a world dominated by ‘blame’.
In brief, the government of Poland is proposing to make it unlawful in that country for anyone to refer to the Holocaust or its tools (including places) as being of Polish origin or having involved Polish people.
Whilst perhaps there were those in Poland who collaborated with the Nazis (sometimes no doubt under pain of death or the death of their families) it would seem to be an extremely shortsighted and arrogant argument on the part of Israel to compartmentalise these unnamed individuals and to lump them together into a force equal to the whole nation which those people just happen to be a product of and that can be then argued, by those who wish to, to inherit all ‘blame’ and, in doing so, with an absolute lack of empathy.
So, why is this happening?
Simple.
Poland naturally wishes to distance itself from allegations of past inhuman action against others. It wishes to extract itself from a history that is entwined with death, invariably through no fault of its own. Of note is that it was not only Nazi Germany that pursued the Jewish people. The Russians were equally involved. Israel objects because it considers, for Poland to pass what it proposes into law, is tantamount to the denial, ostensibly, for the reason it exists.
When a country is neighboured, on two sides, by so much persecution, death-intent and killing fact, not imposed by its government, it is entirely natural that, at some point, it seeks to distance itself from those chapters in its history that cause it pain. How can any country lift itself out of what, in effect, is its own persecution, when it is blamed for shifting - blame?
Israel should take note of this and accept that it has no right to such self-imposed superiority and no right at all to involve itself in the government of other countries. Better, by far, is for it to look in upon itself and to accept that to falsely label those to blame here is only one example of many: an example of, simply, lifting legs where it can, hoping no doubt that those it targets will simply topple over and never get up.
We, that is you and I, and everyone with a reasonable mind, shouldn’t stand for it. We should never consider toppling though, or sitting on things - because it is generally comfortable to do so, for an easy life...and we should never come across as limp. We mustn’t deny that this is happening.
Together, we should and must’ve stand firm and tall, and aim to have all this persecution, and ‘blame’, stamped out, once and for all.
’Denial’ can have a wide meaning and reason. It is not limited to Israel’s history or present actions. Rather, it is prevalent in many forms, not least in pushing through the agenda of a few over the many.
We can’t deny it...but we can resist it.
Keep smiling!
