Controversial Speech on Jewish Identity

"Lo sé", le dije a esta multitud judía de mi público, "que soy

mal visto, y sé por qué soy mal visto.

Ahora, ustedes llevan siendo mal vistos durante tres

mil años.

¿Alguna vez se miran al espejo y se preguntan por qué son mal vistos?

Eso podría ser muy… No, no lo quise decir de una forma,

no lo quise decir de una, de una

forma ofensiva. Lo quise decir de una forma útil,

de autoanálisis, como la forma en que se aconseja a los comunistas,

a los marxistas-leninistas

que se autocritiquen y se autoanalicen.

"¿Alguna vez se han analizado como raza y se han dicho: 'Hemos

sido acosados y perseguidos y hostigados y masacrados durante tres

mil

años. ¿Por qué nosotros?'"

Nunca se hacen esa pregunta, ¿verdad?

Nunca se la hacen. Van por ahí hostigando

y persiguiendo a otros, y

se comportan de una forma totalmente odiosa, como probablemente me comporto yo ante sus ojos, pero

nunca se preguntan por qué, y nunca corrigen sus propios defectos.

Uno de los, los, el líder de, de la

facción del público se levantó

furioso y dijo: «¿Nos está acusando?

¿Está diciendo que nosotros somos responsables de Auschwitz?»

Y es una pregunta un tanto desconcertante, y, al pensarlo, dije:

«Bueno,

la respuesta corta es sí».

Pero es una respuesta cruel porque, para hacerle justicia a la pregunta,

hay que pasar por muchas etapas intermedias, claro.

Pero la respuesta corta, si quieres saltar de la A a la Z, es sí.

Original transcript (English)

"I know," I said to this Jewish mob in my audience, "that I am disliked, and I know why I'm disliked. Now, you people have been disliked for three thousand years. Do you ever look in the mirror and ask yourselves why you are disliked?

That might be very..." No, I didn't mean it in a, I didn't mean it in a, in an offensive way. I meant it as a helpful, self-analytical way, the way that the communists, the Marxist Leninists are advised

to self-criticize and self-analyze. "Have you ever analyzed yourselves as a race and said to yourselves, 'We have been hounded and persecuted and harried and massacred for three thousand years. Why us?'"

They never ask themselves that question, do they? They never ask them that. They come along and they harry and persecute others, and they behave in a thoroughly obnoxious way, as I probably behave in their eyes, but they never ask themselves why, and they never cure their own faults.

One of the, the, the leader of the, of the, of this faction in the audience stood up furiously and he said, "Are you accusing us? Are you saying that we are responsible for Auschwitz ourselves?" And it's a bit of a dazzling question, and when you think about it, I said,

"Well, the short answer is yes." But that's a cruel answer because to do the question justice you've got to have a lot of intervening stages, of course. But the short answer, if you want to hop from A to Z, is yes
