That Jewish-led massacre is interesting, and somewhat shocking. But it is certainly not typical of the Jewish religion or culture. Also, I do not regard either the BBC or the Koran as reliable sources of historical information. They certainly have their agendas.......

I'm not sure why we need to blame anyone for Hitler's decisions? But I'm a moderate and think the placing of blame and taking sides is the general basis for all of our problems. So I'm the wrong one to ask.
btw... Ricardo is spelled with an I. And was my assaulter's name last night... coincidence? LOL

Oops! Persecution of Christians by Jewish tribes in Yemen
In AD 516, a tribal unrest broke out in Yemen and several tribal elites fought for power. One of those elites was Joseph Dhu Nuwas or "Yousef Asa'ar", a Jewish warlord mentioned in ancient south Arabian inscriptions. Syriac and Byzantine sources claim that he fought his war because Christians in Yemen refused to renounce Christianity. In 2009, a documentary that aired on the BBC defended the claim that the villagers had been offered the choice between conversion to Judaism or death and that 20,000 Christians had then been massacred stating that "The production team spoke to many historians over 18 months, among them Nigel Groom, who was our consultant, and Professor Abdul Rahman Al-Ansary, a former professor of archaeology at the King Saud University in Riyadh."[31] Inscriptions documented by Yousef himself show the great pride that he expressed after Killing more than 22,000 Christians in Zafar and Najran.[32] Historian Glen Bowersock described this as a "savage pogrom that the Jewish king of the Arabs launched against the Christians in the city of Najran. The king himself reported in excruciating detail to his Arab and Persian allies about the massacres that he had inflicted on all Christians who refused to convert to Judaism."[33] This particular persecution is described and condemned in the Qur'an and more specifically in its 85th chapter entitled "Al-Burooj" (zodiacal constellation).[34]

My point is that Jackson was perhaps a bit justified in how he treated the Indians, while Hitler was completely unjustfied in how he treated the Jews.

To point out some differences between Indians (ahem, excuse me, Native Americans) and Jews........
I have never heard or read of Jews doing things like this:
Men and women captives [2] as well as teenage boys,[3] would usually face death by ritual torture. The torture had strong sacrificial overtones, usually to the sun.[4] Captives, especially warriors, were expected to show extreme self-control and composure during torture, singing "death songs", bragging of one's courage or deeds in battle, and otherwise showing defiance.[5] The torture was conducted publicly in the captors' village, and the entire population (including children) watched and participated.[6] Common torture techniques included burning the captive, which was done one hot coal at a time, rather than the Hollywood-style firewood pyres; cutting with knives, beatings with switches or sticks, and jabs from sharp sticks. Prisoners' fingernails were ripped out. Their fingers were broken, then twisted and yanked by children. Captives were made to eat pieces of their own flesh, and were scalped alive. To make the torture last longer, the Native Americans would revive captives with rest periods during which time they were given food and water. Tortures typically began on the lower limbs, then gradually spread to the arms, then the torso. The Native Americans spoke of "caressing" the prisoners gently at first, which meant that the initial tortures were designed to cause pain, but only minimal bodily harm. By these means, the execution of a captive, especially an adult male, could take several days and nights.[7]
Really nice people, these Indians.........
