In 1449, the city council of Toledo Spain, under the influence of fanatical Catholic monks called Franciscan "observants," passed a law called the "Sentencia Estatuto." This law forbade appointing converted Jews (and Muslims), and even their descendants, to positions in the city administration.
One of the leading Franciscan Observants was a man named Alonso De Espina (it is spelled in a few different ways, but this is the version used most often). Espina wrote a book, called the "Fortalitium Fidei," the first book ever printed on the subject of the occult, witches, and demons. It was incredibly anti-Jewish. Espina wrote that Jews cohabited with demons and witches, and worshiped Satan. He advocated the use of extreme measures in "cleansing" Christian society of heresies and unbelief - then including Protestants and Muslims and indigenous semi-pagan Basques, as well as Jews.
Espina was very influential. Another Franciscan named Jacob Sprenger followed in Epsina's footsteps when he wrote his book "Malleus Maleficarum" ('Hammer of the Witches', or 'of the Evil-doers.') This became a best seller in Germany in the 1500s and again speaks of demons and witches as if they were real, and links Jews to them in a physical - thus real - sense.
Why would Espina and Sprenger to accuse Jews of absurd crimes such as allegedly stabbing the communion wafer with a knife to draw Christ's blood from it? There was a theologico-institutional reason why the Catholic Church wanted badly to promote and support it's doctrine of the “real presence’ of the blood and flesh of Christ in communion. This had to with a nasty dispute between the Roman Catholic and Greek Orthodox Christian Churches. "Proving" that the blood of Christ was really in the communion wafer by showing that since Jews had been condemned, and burned to death, for this 'crime,' by 'fair trials' was a way for the Roman Church to support a new doctrine it had issued in the face of great resistance from the Greeks. But for the public to believe that Jews were semi-demons - semi-magical creatures- capable of cutting the communion wafer and making it bleed, made it easier for that public to condone and enjoy watching the Church and government destroy their lives and burn them to ashes.
What the Nazis did in the 1940s was no different in quality, in kind, than the burning of 44 Jews in Krakow in 1453 for the impossible crime of cookie-desecration. For the murder and violation of tens of millions of innocents over the millennia. For the Church-inspired massacres of tens of thousands at a time on the way to the First Crusade in 1096, and the second Crusade in 1144, in England in 1190, all over Europe in 1348, and in Spain in 1391, and on and on. But those events, while Church inspired, did not have a coherent 'secular' philosophy behind them.
What Espina and Sprenger and their type did was create a secular theory of Jew-(and other infidel) hate. (A theory with racist overtones which developed into Hitler's own Aryan Racist theories.)
This was in the 1400s and 1500s. When the Sultans Bayazet 2, and Selim, and Sulaiman, were showing that a diverse and relatively free society could be administered much more productively than the kind of segregated and authoritarian societies that were developing in Catholic countries at the same time.
Meanwhile, Martin Luther rejected the Pope, but also became far more anti-Jewish than many Popes. This is important because Luther was the leading ideological figure among those who led northern European countries in breaking away from the Catholic Church, and one of Hitler's heroes. And as each country developed its own flavor of Protestantism, Lutheranism found its main base in Germany.
I sent you some more material. I hope you like it.
What I sent you before is probably in your inbox,
at the top of your page.
I notice that when you responded to my last message here,
you put the message on your own page - that's why I didn't see it for a while. It wasn't on my page!
(I make the same mistake myself sometimes.)
Anyway, Please check for my first message in the inbox on the top of the page.
Thanks,

I was today at Bila'in
I take part at the mourning tent
two youngsters were kiled last week by Israeli soldiers
I made a lescure about the Jewish Holocaust for the families who lost thier beloved and dearest.
contradactory?!?!?
No .
It is the truth.
the soldiers kill us so thier method is based upon the killing to make us victims and feel so weak.
to make resistince to the killing method we need to make the opposate and that is not to kill or harm
because I want to resist their way of thinking.
If we choose to use the killing method then we are subjected to them and not opposing them.
so I lecture for the fmilies of the victims in Bila'in about the Jews being a unique victims in a monstereos measures. so we have the result of making the soldiers feel victims without any violence.
instead of desiding to kill them we choose the oppose with human feeling the opposite of their methods
this is the human resistincse.
please send the questions.

thank you for the comments. I find you very inspirational- i totally agree with your belief about the mutual understanding of pain... I would love to know more about your work!
Also, I am doing some research at the moment for my degree, would you be interested in participating? It is an anonymous questionnaire of 5 questions about democracy, the international world and Palestine. Your help would be really great! :)
Best wishes,
Amiera

I spoke with G. not long ago. Now he has more than fifty booklets at home. So whenever you want them, they are ready there for you. I hope you still have his phone numbers. Greetings and blessings, Martin
I will do read in the blog
thanks
to make the massmedia follow me is an easy task when we talk about a unique Pain
so I will make all the world talk about the Holocaust and its power to force the opponents to realize the peace in nonviolent way.
its our task and the "Holocaust" will do the Job. I mean the Universal lessono of the Holocaust.
