“We can either live in a paranoid politically correct world frantically trying not to offend the Hitlers and Mohammeds, and blaming their victims when they kill, or we can be free men and women who have chosen to take the power to defend our rights into our own hands.

While a thousand organizations use the Holocaust as a platform for speeches about tolerance, Children Of Jewish Holocaust Survivors [Jews Can Shoot] is conducting firearms training… Freedom is not defended with empty idealism easily perverted into appeasement of evil, but with the force of arms.”

All too many of the other great tragedies of history - Stalin's atrocities, the killing fields of Cambodia, the Holocaust, to name but a few - were perpetrated by armed troops against unarmed populations. Many could well have been avoided mitigated, had the perpetrators known their intended victims were equipped with a rifle and twenty bullets apiece... If a few hundred Jewish fighter in the Warsaw Ghetto could hold off the Wehrmacht for almost a month with only a handful weapons, six million Jews armed with rifles could not so easily have been herded into cattle cars.

The forgotten effort to raise a Jewish army to fight Hitler

by Jews Can Shoot on April 2, 2018

Among the nine films nominated for “Best Picture” at this Sunday’s Oscars, two portray the crisis Winston Churchill faced when he became prime minister in May 1940. “Dunkirk” recounted the miraculous evacuation of more than 300,000 soldiers from France, barely ahead of the Nazi forces advancing to annihilate them. “Darkest Hour” portrayed the run-up to Churchill’s historic June 4, 1940 address, which ended with the words that inspired a nation: “We shall never surrender.”

What Churchill did not disclose at the time was that, after Dunkirk, Britain had only 100 tanks remaining. The British had abandoned all their military equipment in the Dunkirk retreat: 475 tanks, 38,000 vehicles, 12,000 motorcycles, 90,000 rifles and 7,000 tons of ammunition. As Britain awaited what was coming next — the Nazi blitz on London — the country was in dire military straits, under-manned and under-armed.

Who are the militia? Are they not ourselves?
