As a feature of indecent human nature to
jealously guard what is not theirs in the
arcane belief that claims are nine-tenths
of a just law of ownership it is beyond
strange that the most creatively talented
group on Earth from ancient times to
the present remains hounded, threatened
detested, their heritage and ancestry
mocked and belittled yet the articles
of their faith, their history, their land
and their contributions to the world
that shuns them are valued decoupled
from their source in counterclaims of
authenticity. From brilliance of thought
and reasoning, execution of monumental
discoveries to the ultimate horrors of
deliberate annihilation the world rushes
to claim originality and victimhood as
their very own experiences, denying both
achievement and martyrdom to the tribe
whose very existence profited them all.
