Paris, August 31 - Numerous European nations where locals exploited the German-led removal of millions of Jews to seize the possessions of those Jews during the Second World War have so far expressed less than full-throated support for the endeavor to reestablish, defend, and develop a Jewish national home on the very land taken from Jews two thousand years ago.

Politicians and public figures across Ukraine, Poland, the Baltic states, Germany, Austria, France, Hungary, Belgium, the Netherlands, and several other states under Nazi rule during WWII continued this week to hedge their nominal support for a secure Israel with statements, and in many cases funding, for projects and organizations dedicated to destroying Israel - reflecting the ambivalence those countries express in their professions of regret over the treatment of their Jewish neighbors during WWII, even as those non-Jewish neighbors helped themselves to the furniture, dishes, artwork, jewelry, rugs, and even entire houses of the Jews that the Nazis and local collaborators deported and mass-murdered.

"Of course the Jews should control their own defense and security, and not remain at the mercy of any host culture," stated French politician Haleque Chalal. "It's of paramount importance that Jews not be deprived, certainly not by the exercise or threat of force, of what they possess or are trying to possess again. But that must not come at the expense of others, who have by various means come into possession of things Jews had a long time ago but do not anymore, if you catch what I am saying. Why are you looking at the silverware on my table? My grandmother picked that up during the war."

Similar sentiments echoed across Europe. Officials in Brussels, from which many important European Union decisions issue, repeated their longstanding lip-service in favor of Jewish security combined with their money-service in favor of groups with the raison d'être of depriving Jews of security. The dynamic mirrors the phenomenon of Europeans claiming status as victims of the Nazis, which in many cases dovetails with the facts, while taking advantage of any opportunity they had to loot their disappeared Jewish neighbors' property.

"It was war, and there was scarcity," explained Polish householder Ajma Wultur. "We all did what we could to survive. Sometimes that meant selling anything you could find. You can't fault us for that. The problem is that some Jews came back after the war and demanded their stuff back. Can you imagine? Now I know how the Arabs feel."
