[asa] MIrroring caused the holocaust, not Darwin

I found this on another list and thought of the recent conversation on Darwin
and Hitler and my post on Kevin MacDonald and "mirroring."

"Dear Friends,

Re: The new book by Jeffrey Herf, The Jewish Enemy: Nazi Propaganda During
World War II and the Holocaust, Belknap Press, 2006. Reviewed in the Forward,
July 21, 2006, p.16

The thesis of this book is that: "According to Herf, the Nazis killed the
Jews not because they believed they had inferior blood, but because they were
considered powerful political foes."

This book may offer supporting evidence for Dr. MacDonald's theory of
antisemitism as presented in Separation and Its Discontents. I believe he
hypothesized that antisemitism is caused when non-Jews perceive the Jews as a threat to
their survival and well being. Then, in order to combat the Jews, the
non-Jews create altruistic groups that are a mirror image of Judaism."
