Richard Corliss states in his review of the movie Defiance, "Not all Jews under Hitler's boot were passive victims" [Dec. 8]. Almost all of Hitler's Jewish victims were civilians with families. They had no army, let alone guns, and were often betrayed by their local government. The vast majority had no chance to fight and nothing to fight with and probably thought they would live to see their families again, not knowing what evil awaited them. Calling them or any defenseless people "passive victims"--even to refute such a notion-- is ignorant, rude and insulting. It would have...

When was the last time Buddy the Elf quoted the Bible? I can’t remember either. If it’s arguing over whether...
This is where I’m going to drop the Jew card. As a half-Jew on the side that doesn’t really make me Jewish, I am deeply offended that ABP has no dreidle or Antiochus IV Epiphanes shaped cookies. I’ll die a happy Few (fake Jew) the day that I attend an Ugly Hanukkah Sweater party. Believe me, there are plenty of Jews out there with grotesque sweaters knitted by their Grandma Harriets and Aunt Ednas...
