Not the question I asked. I asked why don't other tragedies get any attention? And I was not implying it was because of the Jews. I believe the Holocaust deserves the attention it gets I just wish for instance in the early 90's people in the US/Canada knew what was happening in Sudan.

you can't mention anything about Jews without getting attacked (this is not true).

This is not true but your reaction to the intial post was unwarranted, but I think you misunderstood what the poster was saying.

There are so many more than this, including in this thread pure hate talk. A recent thread about Israel included more hate speak.
If you looked up a similar thread on some other site, you will see the exact same situation.

I haven't seen any outright hate speak here, definitely some ignorance though which could be just as bad.

One of the tactics used by hate groups (not that I am suggesting this is what people are doing here) is to diminish the holocaust by claims that Jews push it in your face and other world events are worse yet we don't know about them because of Jews (along with holocaust denial).

I don't think anyone here is blaming the lack of recognition of other tragedies on the Jews. I know I am not. I am blaming it on racism/culturalism/anglocentrism.

So what appears to you as some people simply mentioning that other races have suffered (of course), I suggest they get of their couch and go build a museum or something if they feel so strongly. Don't blame the Jews for it.

Who is blaming the Jews? Have you built a museum to the Holocaust? It's probably easier said than done. And to get funding for a project dedicated to the Sudanese genocide for instance is not easy in a country where no one gives a damn. That's my point. Are the Jews to blame for there not being a museum? Hell no. It's because the West as a whole doesn't give a crap about black people dying in Africa and that's a damn shame. No where in any of my posts did I blame the Jews for anything or say anything negative about the Jews in any way. If you think I did please point it out for me.
