For how many years did the Jews suffer in Egypt, before God intervened? I think it was far longer than the decade or so they suffered under Hitler.

Yes, cause Jews are not perfect and if the majority prise money over doing the right thing by gentiles, a righteous God would let evil get to them.

Pride comes before a fall! There is a difference between the slavery of the Jews under the Pharaoh's (for which there is little scientific evidence) and the Holocaust. Just before the Holocaust Jews were (and still are) very powerful and influential people. Non Zionist Jews were responsible for the Russian revolution which killed millions of people (men women and children often in horrible ways), so they were not great people and victims before Hitler.

The evil that humanity does is not controlled by god but is influenced by the Devil and evil people.

Good is promoted by Gods instructions to Humanity, its up to humanity to follow God's laws he cannot force them on people otherwise there would be no point to the game.

We're all just some big strategy game and the individual (or even a few million people) does not matter in such a game. An eternal being has to amuse itself somehow.

I know this is a tad blasphemous but it isn't anti Semitic its History and reality.

Yes.

First of all, you don't have all the facts. Neither do I. But I have some observations.

1) A lot of Jews died under the pharaohs in Egypt before God sent Moses to take them out.

2) Death and suffering aren't the worst things that can happen to a person or to a group of people. What we interpret as punishment could be being done for our good.

3) God saved LOTS of Jews under Hitler.

4) In the end Hitler didn't prosper.

etc.

God did intervene against Hitler but he used England ,the United States and other countries to do so, I'm proud that my grand father had a part in doing Gods work.

During Biblical times, one sees people record God's interventions in concrete ways, i.e. burning bushes and climbing up mountains for tablets. During modern times, we do not see such spectacles, since we do not see the world in the same way as the ancients, and only 60 years have passed for people to heap fantastic details upon the events of WW II. The Israelites suffered a lot in Egypt as well, if I remember correctly from school, and who says the liberation of Axis held land in Europe by the Allies was not some type of divine intervention?

Well ,supposedly, back in the old days God intervened quite a bit. The reason is because if he didn't help the jews they'd still be ruled by the Egyptian thus halting 'Christs' first coming and the whole 'crucification' and death for 'our sins' could've never happened. After 'Christs' death 'God' decided to let man work his own destiny.

Straightforward Christian Answer:
The Jews don't follow Jesus, when they failed to follow the son of God, they lost God's favor.

Straightforward Atheist Answer:
There is no God, spot on for observing that.

Straightforward Pantheist Answer (My Answer):
Hitler's persecution of the Jews has made it almost a crime to even wear a bloody toothbrush mustache, much less do anything similar in methodology to what Hitler did. All in all, the world has improved morally, due in part, to the sickness that was Adolf Hitler. I wouldn't change history even if I could.

The Old Testament prophets foretold the holocaust.
That the Jews would be crying.
Jesus Christ had said, "Rachael will cry in the streets for her children."
The prophets also foretold that the Jews would come back together, after that time of trial, and be brought back to their ancestral land.
The Jews fall in and out of favor with God throughout the Bible...the captivity in Babylon, for example.

The Jews rejected Jesus:

Mar 12:10 And have ye not read this scripture; The stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the corner:

When you think of the millions and millions of people that died ( not only Jews) during WW!! you really have to question " Where was God"? But all throughout history there have been wars and man's inhumanity to man........where was God then? Why did he show up only in Biblical times?
