Driving German cars by ” heimish” people.

your Toyota: it’s Japanese and if not for japan the Germans wouldn’t have gotten so far.-half of Lakewood has a Camry and Sienna.
your house: one of the workers who built your house was German. QUICK, TAKE YOUR HOUSE APART!!!

if using German stuff for your benefit, who cares who made it? yes even if it’s amalek!
what exactly is the problem?
will you not use something made in Europe, Russia, or the middle east because they formerly or currently had or have anti-Semitic issues. you could live in the elements and starve but most other people would rather not.

DMB, that Sienna is actually made in Indiana and that Camry is made in Kentucky, A little over a third of German cars sold in the U.S. come from Germany, Most come from the U.S. or Mexico.

Ff; OK, I won’t hock you up about the Bosch mixer, but what about the Bosch dishwashers, ovens and refrigerators? Can I use audio equipment such as a microphone stand boom arm made by K&M in Germany? Where does this end?

Should we be concerned about driving cars made by persons of English descent due to the expulsion and massacre of our ancestors by the ancestors of the modern Americans? Perhaps refuse to buy anything made by Blacks (descended from the Egyptians) or Hispanics (some of whose ancestors lived in Spain)? Boycott goods made by descendants of the Romans (pretty much all of Europe and the Americas).

And how do we deal with the fact that cars are really produced internationally. We could refuse to use anything produced by goyim.

And should we deal with the fact that for the last 70 years Germany has been friendly to Jews whereas many of the countries that opposed the Nazis are no longer friendly.

Also Germany has a retirement age, so we can be quite assured that no Nazis built a German product you buy today.

“How do “heimish” people afford these cars?”

They’re rich? Do we need to reopen the “heimish” thread?

Its a much greater chilul hashem and insult to the memory of the kedoshim who were niftar in the Shoah for tens of thousands of yidden to go back to the blood-soaked earth of Uman each year and pour NIS millions into the Urkraine economy than to drive a VW or BMW which probably was assembled in the U.S. or Canada from about 1/3 U.S. made parts and benefits a universe of public shareholders from around the world.

iac: A&P was all American.

Those companies are not the same BMW and Mercedes that they were during the war. Both were sold to different owners and no one who works there now worked there then. Besides, a vast majority of the cars are made here or in Mexico. Many of the things you use that have moving parts were engineered in Germany or use Krupp steel, but you don’t have a problem with those? I assume, for example, that you don’t take the stairs in every building with a Thyssen-Krupp elevator. I also assume you take aspirin, invented by Bayer.

Frumflyfisher really hit a NERVE with you people. He’s 1000% correct.

To the ignornant Yidden, here are some excerpts from the review of the book “Mercedes in Peace and War”

The three-pointed Mercedes emblem and the Nazi swastika were paired in the eyes of the German volk, according to the evidence in the book. ”The company itself was a personal favorite of the Fuhrer, who generally rode in Mercedes cars, as did the rest of his entourage,” Mr. Bellon says. Jakob Werlin, an associate director of the company, was a personal friend of Hitler whose ties with the Fuhrer dated back to the 1923 putsch. When Hitler left the Landsberg penitentiary in 1924, the author notes, Werlin picked him up at the prison gates. According to American intelligence documents obtained by Mr. Bellon under the Freedom of Information Act, Hitler held a portfolio of Daimler-Benz stocks, which Werlin personally administered for him.

”On a massive scale, Daimler-Benz threw tens of thousands of men and women, including foreign workers and concentration camp inmates, into the battle to produce engines for the German air force,” Mr. Bellon writes. Daimler-Benz used Jewish women from the concentration camps at Ravensbruck and Sachsenhausen as worker-slaves. One group of female inmates working at Daimler-Benz was moved back to Sachsenhausen in the final weeks of the war, apparently to be gassed. They survived to tell the tale when the camp’s gas chamber failed to function.

Nebech, that today’s generation of so called frum Yidden have sunk so low as to justify in their own minds that driving a German car is something to be proud of.

Genya, just another reminder that Ford was founded by Henry Ford.

Don’t forget about Krupp.

“The bottom line is that you are not driving around town in a computer , phone or an asprin. What it is , is a statement, and there are plenty of luxury cars out there.”

Seems like the people driving these cars are always the biggest balei geivas out there. You know what I mean… The ones that cut all the waiting cars illegally to get off on to the exit ramp. And of course never they never signal. Does BMW even have a turn indicator because I’ve never seen it used?

In a nutshell they are just very insensitive people that think about no one else but themselves. So why would they have a problem spitting on the mass graves of our parents? (And justifying it to boot!)

Volkswagons are hardly luxury. People like its driving performance. German cars are better than Japanese. The Japanese tried to annex Alaska in WWII.

To summarize: Everyone will take motrin, use anything containing Krupp steel, Ride Thyssen-Krupp elevators, use Thyssen-Krupp buildings, use IBM computing products, drive Audis and Volkswagens (or cars bichlal, invented by Karl Benz & Gottleib Daimler) , wear Adidas, use airbags, fly on planes powered by jet engines, listen to MP3 songs, use anti-lock brakes, or use any of the other $1.445 trillion worth of goods Germany ships out every year, but when it comes to cars which you think are improper anyway, suddenly we hear all the “oy vey Mercedes is a Nazi car”

Joseph if you remember Rudy Giuliani rejected a check from terrorist enablers, after 9/11. There are arguments for both sides of this issue

you guys can try to boycott every company and country with an anti Semitic past, but i’d rather just have the car, food, medicine etc and not worry about where it came from.
and if FFF is right then it makes no difference where the product was produced but who’s getting the money you pay for it.

Incredible. To kvetch about the perhaps 1000 “heimishe” who buy cars manufactured by german corporations assembled in us , made of parts manufactured all over the world and then rant about their lack of middos, THIS bothers the op. Thats thousands and thousands of jews over the years employed, or continue to employee people from countries soaked in yiddishe blood as cleaning help, office help or in other ways bring them into their home, not a sound. That it has become an “it thing” for tens of thousands of hidden to go every year for 2 weeks and pump who known how many hundreds of thousands (millions) of dollars into the Yiddishe blood soaked Ukrainian hands, not a peep.

Avi, Horthy refused German demands to deport Hungarian Jews to Aushwitz. Which is why the Germans overthrew him.

In any event, Netanyahu and Israel are great friends with Orban and Hungary.

“able to”? Shloime isn’t “able to drive” a Jaguar or Lincoln?

Joseph, you are simply wrong. When Horthy saw that Germany was losing he declared an armistice and attempted to make a deal with the US and Britain in order to stave of the Russians. This is why he was deposed and Hungary occupied by the Germans. In an October 1940 letter to Prime Minister Pál Teleki, Horthy wrote:

“As regards the Jewish problem, I have been an anti-Semite throughout my life. I have never had contact with Jews. I have considered it intolerable that here in Hungary everything, every factory, bank, large fortune, business, theatre, press, commerce, etc. should be in Jewish hands, and that the Jew should be the image reflected of Hungary, especially abroad. Since, however, one of the most important tasks of the government is to raise the standard of living, i.e., we have to acquire wealth, it is impossible, in a year or two, to replace the Jews, who have everything in their hands, and to replace them with incompetent, unworthy, mostly big-mouthed elements, for we should become bankrupt. This requires a generation at least.”

Thus we see that his unwillingness to wipe out the Jews was pragmatic rather than ideological.

As for Netanyahu and Israel being friendly with Orban and Hungary, I have already posted that we are seeing the birth of a new nationalism that respects others’ nationalisms.
