Talk:6th Airborne Division in Palestine

The Promise
I'm no proponent of "In popular culture" sections, but I wonder if The Promise is worth a mention in the context of this article, one of the protagonists being a young NCO of the 6th Airborne. David Underdown (talk) 14:25, 23 October 2011 (UTC)

No different from Nazis
"It became a widespread belief within the Jewish community that the British were practising antisemitism and were no different from Nazi Germany."
 * I can't see the source, but this statement is false and insulting to the Jewish community of the time. Of course people compared the British to the Nazis as a rhetorical device (like many people do to their enemies today) but only a tiny fringe of fanatics thought the British were really like Nazis.  Did they think the British were building gas chambers and feeding Jews into incinerators?  They weren't so stupid as that and we shouldn't claim they were. Zerotalk 03:14, 13 May 2012 (UTC)


 * The "and were no different..." part is problematic. Jim, what does the source say? --Demiurge1000 (talk) 16:57, 13 May 2012 (UTC)
