    Thanks for being honest and asking in good faith. So pretty much the whole history has been defined by genocides and being used as fodder for scapegoating.

      Oh I know that. I was talking specifically about whether antisemitism affected foreign policy. Like, didn’t Western countries just persecute Jews inside their borders while not really caring about ones outside? That’s why I said “outside their borders”.
