To die.  I do not believe that the Jews were under some moral obligation to
kill in return for killing.  To say that they were "just victims" appalls me.

Not everyone is in the position of being able to help themselves.  So many
people are defenseless against the evils that beset them.  To condemn the
helpless is to glorify might.  To praise blind, unthinking loyalty which
willingly submits to evil, is to deny the evil.
