Thanks, Mary Jo.  I'd never heard of  Fackenheim, and I certainly don't agree that any criticism of Israel is a threat to the survival of Judaism.

That said, the notion of handing Hitler posthumous victories is compelling.  One Jewish lady publicly addressed it in a TV interview on 23rd September this year. 88-year-old Baba Schwartz, who was raised in a loving Jewish family in Hungary, was transported to Auschwitz with her entire family when the Nazis occupied her homeland in 1944.

Having survived that horror,  she refuses to hate.  Full stop.
