We don't eat that kind of food any more and that is why so many Jewish Deli's have closed. The NYT in a recent article pointed out, that in 1950, there were over 300 Jewish Deli's in the New York Metropolitan area. Today there are less than 50. 2012-02-09T;22:54:00-05:00 Will Edwards, the Von Trapp family is in Stowe, Vetrmont not Pennsylvania. 2012-02-09T;22:54:00-05:00 The Vatican is saying, we didn't do anything but, neither did anyone else do anything to save Jews. Not anything new, we already new this. 2012-02-09T;22:54:00-05:00 Myron J., you are absolutely correct. The French thought it would be a catastrophe to to defend their country by fighting the Germans in WWII. The want every one to capitulate in the name of peace at any price. 2012-02-09T;22:54:00-05:00 Mr. Edwards, was the comparison to Mr. Rogers necessary? My comments were to the point and without invective. 2012-02-09T;22:54:00-05:00 Didier Spaier is only part correct. France helped Israel get the necessary raw materials. But Israeli scientists helped France develop its atomic bomb. Also, during WWII France was a Nazi collaborationist state that rounde up its Jews for deportation before they were told to. No one should ever listen to France or be dependent on it. 2012-02-09T;22:54:00-05:00 Stuart, I would delete from your list Richard Nixon, John McLaughlin, Sen. George Allen, Jr., but would add General George S. Patton, Jr. 2012-02-09T;22:54:00-05:00
