1752 is just 1572 transposed. Sorry about the typo. No, sadly there were a lot of Huguenots killed. But you seem to be working on Stalin’s dictum: The death of man is a tragedy, the death of thousands a statistic.

Israel seems to be catching up just fine with South Africa and seems to be preparing a similar expulsion for the Palestinians as the Huguenots faced.

I’ll write about what I like.

Robert Darnton, a most middle of the road dean of Revolution history, puts the number of “innocents” at about 20%. That still sucks–but 90%? You’re getting close on the Vendee uprising–thousands to be sure. Some might say tens of thousands. Israel has got a lot of work to do if they want to catch up with Canada and the US! There are three times as many Palestinian Arabs now as there were in 1947.

Imagine if there were three times as many European Jews now as in 1933. That would be 35 million–instead of 3 million. Stick to dance.
