Quote of the Week

"All Germans know the history of the murderous race mania of the Nazis that led to the break with civilization that was the Holocaust. This is taught in German schools for good reason, it must never be forgotten. And I see no reason to change our view of history in any way. We know that responsibility for this crime against humanity is German and very much our own."

-- Steffen Seibert, German Chancellor Angela Merkel's spokesman, responding to Benjamin Netanyahu's statement that a Muslim cleric was actually responsible for the Holocaust.
