Jews still hold axe to Hitler; Trout.

BRUSSELS - A Belgian Public Broadcaster is being condemned by the Jewish community for airing stand-up comedy that pokes fun at the holocaust and the prosecution of Jews, marking the third protest in two months claiming "gross insensitivity".

A late October protest even forced the company to scrap a TV show about famous people's favorite foods that featured Adolf Hitler and his beloved Alpine Trout in butter sauce.



In response, comedian Philippe Geubels commented during the review show "Het Besluit" in saying:

"What are they going to do if there's a gas leak in Antwerp?" (A Belgian Port City and large Jewish community). "Take the city to court for provocation? Pre-emptively file charges against anyone who dares joke about that?". Also adding that the Holocaust could never happen again because "Jews are much smarter now."

I personally still find Holocaust jokes entertaining, and the fact that the Jewish community is still so offended by it makes it all the better. Get over it. Benito Mussolini killed thousands, Stalin was a monster, Blacks finally no longer have to pick cotton. The world is changing, it was a horrific part of history. we get it. Just relax, no one's trying to steal your gold. We all respect you as a religion and community. If you can't take the heat, stay out of the oven.

PS- I can make these comments because I LOOK Jewish. Isn't that how it works?

Everyone's a little bit racist
Sometimes.
Doesn't mean we go
Around committing hate crimes.
Look around and you will find
No one's really color blind.
Maybe it's a fact
We all should face
Everyone makes judgments
Based on race.

If we all could just admit
That we are racist a little bit,
Even though we all know
That it's wrong,
Maybe it would help us
Get along.
