    Yeah, but did you even look at the "quality" of the posts?

    Holy bazookas, one of my old nicknames used to be The Red Rabbi (that's another story!), but even these guys are too much for me! :D

    Oh, nothing special, really.

    There is a Yahoo group dedicated to the "Spearhead" wargame rules, for 6mm scale wargames. These rules are very much slanted to the German Übermensch view of WW2 and most of us got rather annoyed by that, me especially.

    So I invented this character, The Red Rabbi (capital The!), the very antithesis of nazism, for whom everything Soviet was beauty incarnate, assuming the role of a Jewish Politruk, the receiving end of the Kommissar Order.

    After a couple of couple of weeks I realised I might be offending the actual Jews in the group and said so. As a consequence I received a number of private messages from actual Jewish members, saying they weren't bothered at all, and they found the idea and my rabid prose a lot of fun. Of course having "Isaac" as a family name helped a bit :D

    Za,

    Why did you have to direct me there?

    More ignorant people for me to play with...

    Now what shall I choose as my username... Something Germanic! :eek:
