	Denmark and World War II: Truth and Apologies
		Over the last few decades Denmark has become noted for its Danish Resistance Movement and in particular the night of October 1, 1943 when resistance fighters smuggled 7,200 Jews and 700 non-Jewish relatives to neutral Sweden so they would not be taken by the Nazis and murdered in German concentration camps.
		This solidified the Danish Resistance Movement in which the Danes defied the order and smuggled over 7,000 Danish Jews in boats across the Øresund to neutral Sweden.
		However an underground movement of people increasingly shocked by the atrocities of the Nazis began protesting around Denmark and in 1943, German troops took over military barracks in Copenhagen’s Christiana area near the harbor and other areas.

	Three Cheers for the Danes?
		By October 1943, with the potential action against the Jews as a major impetus, the resistance movement (quite ordinary men and women rather than "politicians") was firmly entrenched.
		K.K. Steincke, the Danish Social Democratic Minister of Justice, argued that the German anti-Jewish laws were legitimate and so, the Jews were not entitled to asylum in Denmark.
		Bludnikow does not spare the Danish delegates who in 1944 went there to inspect the condition of the Danish Jews, "had no interest whatsoever in non-Danish Jews", were fooled by the show the Germans put on for them, and, once back in Denmark, wrote reports praising the conditions in Theresienstadt camp.

	Anti-Semitism, Misinformation, And the Whitewashing Of The Palestinian Leadership
		Resistance could be treated as a violation of the dhimma, placing the entire dhimmi community in mortal danger.
		Although Palestinian leaders speak of the Hebron massacre as a heroic act of resistance to Zionism, in fact it was a terrorist pogrom, and directed largely at indigenous Palestinian Jews, not recent immigrants.
		And there was special contempt for the Jews, perhaps because, unlike the Christian case, no Jewish states existed to compete with Islamic states.
