It's true after all, they are a breed apart in
whom nature instilled the virtues of patience
hope, determination and endurance. An
inheritance of spirited enquiry where books are
treasured and knowledge sought as the means
by which stimulated minds become creative
exploring avenues of consciousness to expand
and advance the unity and furtherance of existence.
Yet no other people has been as shunned and
shamed facing injustice and violent expressions
of hatred as they. None others inherit the forlorn
haunted memories of genocidal annihilation
in a world where indifference to mass murder
diminished humanity -- oblivious to its failure.
Withholding praise and wonder in reflection
of this ancient people's facility in art and science
in creative brilliance turning instead to slanderous
accusations of pursuit of dominance and power
resentment and hostility so acute it led the world to
abandon its own humanity to deprive Jews of theirs.
