In psychoanalysis can we say simply that the holocaust is behind all Israeli crimes and it USA support?

can we say that Hitler is the one killing Lebanese and Palestinians?

    No, we can not say that. What you are saying has nothing to do with psychoanalysis.

    Frankly, I don’t think so.
    The Arab/Israeli conflict goes back thousands of years to Abraham’s two sons Issac and Ismael.
    Second, psychoanalysis is done with an individual, not nations.
    Third, what Hitler and the holocaust experience did for Jewish people was to teach them to be aggressive (stand up for their rights) and tolerant of other races, also including gays (because they were victims of prejudice big time).
    “can we say that Hitler is the one killing Lebanese and Palestinians?” Not really and be accurate. Hitler is a factor in Jewish culture and tradition and history, but not that much.

    I sort of think I might know what you mean. The holocaust isn’t directly related to the Palestinian conflict but you could argue that the holocaust along with the Spanish Inquisition and other times when jews have been persecuted has led to a certain state of mind. I know that in my mind after being persecuted just about everywhere on earth and chased out of every home I had ever known I would not care who stands in the way of me securing a homeland. I think the majority of Israeli’s would have the view that nobody is going to give them a home so they just have to take it. The holocaust has definitely bred generations of more strongwilled jews willing to fight for a homeland.

    Huh?

    We could ask what sort of drugs you are taking man?

    But I suppose if you want to trace cause and effect, you seem to be saying that Hitler caused the Holocaust, and this in turn inspired the United Nations to support Israel independence in 1948, which has resulted in a number of wars with the arabs since that time and is now exchanging shots with Lebanese and Palestinians, so you are supposing that this is all Hitlers fault. My answer to this would be… what caused Hitler?

    If you trace back cause and effect far enough, it is all due to original sin occuring in the Garden of Eden, when Adam and Eve ate of the apple of knowledge of good and evil. Man became sinful then, and has not stopped since.

    Nope. Israel is a nation living in a hostile world and taking those measures it deems necessary for survival. The holocaust had nothing to do with the United States waging a cold war against the USSR or WW2 against Japan.
