Of course everyone you speak to thinks as you do. We all tend to associate with people like ourselves, Teasle2. It up to us, not others, to work out why we chose to believe what we believe and whether it's the right thing to do.
Let me ask you a question. We all know how Hitler turned the Jews into the "enemy of the state". Do you now, after decades of learning about the history of that terrible period in Europe, believe that all or anything that was said about the Jews to make them the enemy of the state was true?. Did they actually deserve what was basically retribution for the very difficult problems Germany faced. Did focusing on them solve those problems as easily and simply as promised - or at all? Did the people of Germany feel vindicated at the end of it all?
I fail to understand the link you are making here. However, of course I feel deeply for the suffering of the Jews, they deserve a land to call their own after their suffering. Just for the record my in laws were German, they didnt have any say whatsoever in what happened politically during the war years, so to ask if they felt vindicated is not applicable to the vast majority of the population, just to those involved in the treatment of the Jews.
The vast majority of the UK are similarly not allowed to have any say in the invasion of the UK except at the ballot box when hopefully Labour will be kicked out.
I'll raise a glass (cup?) to yours.
