হিটলার কি সত্যিই ৬০ লাখ ইহুদি হত্যা করেছিলেন? ================================= হলোকাস্টের মিথ: যেভাবে তৈরি হয়েছে বিশ শতকের সবচেয়ে বড় মিথ্যাচার ! আধুনিক বিশ্বের ইতিহাসে হলোকাস্ট খুবই গুরুত্বপূর্ণ এক প্রসঙ্গ। এ এমন বিষয়, যার উপর পা রেখে অস্তিত্বে এসেছে একটি রাষ্ট্র। ঐতিহাসিক রবার্ট বি গোল্ডম্যান লিখেছেন- ‘হলোকাস্ট ছাড়া ইজরাইল নামক রাষ্ট্র গঠন সম্ভবই ছিলো না।’ গোল্ডম্যানের কথাটি যেভাবে ঐতিহাসিক, তেমনি ধর্মতাত্ত্বিক। ইহুদীদের ধর্মগ্রন্থে আছে হলোকাস্টের ধারণা। তালমুদের ভাষ্য হচ্ছে, ইহুদীরা যখন রাজ্যহারা হয়ে যাবে, তখন ৬০ লাখ ইহুদীকে আত্মবিসর্জন দিতে হবে। তারপর প্রতিষ্ঠিত হবে ইহুদীদের নিজস্ব রাষ্ট্র! নিজেদের একটা রাষ্ট্রের জন্য ৬০ লক্ষ প্রাণ দান ইহুদীদের পক্ষে কখনো সম্ভব হয়নি, যদিও তাদের প্রয়োজন ছিলো রাষ্ট্র অর্জন। কেননা শতাব্দীর পর শতাব্দী যাবত দেশে দেশে তারা উদ্ধাস্তুরূপে উৎপীড়নের শিকার হয়ে জীবন যাপন করছিলো। হিটলারের নাজিজম যখন জার্মানিতে উস্কে উঠলো, তখন সেখানকার ইহুদীদের পিঠটা একেবারে দেয়ালে ঠেকে যায়। পিঠ দেয়ালে ঠেকে গেলে যে কোন জাতির জন্যেই একটা না একটা প্রতিবিধান হয়ে যায়। এটা অনেকটা প্র...

Mythical Creature in Greek Mythology ~ CENTAUR  A centaur was a creature from Greek mythology which was half-man and half-horse. The head, arms and torso were human and joined at the waist to the body and legs of a horse. These creatures represented barbarism and unbridled chaos and were frequently represented in Greek architectural sculpture and pottery decoration. However, despite their bestial and lustful reputation, some centaurs were not unfavourably portrayed in myths unless they were under the effects of wine. Perhaps then they are a cautionary metaphor for the dangers we all face if we should forget our civility and lose control of our faculties. Origins The father of the race of centaurs was Centaurus, himself the offspring of Ixion who had made love to Hera, or more precisely, a cloud made by a jealous Zeus to resemble Hera. The centaurs were believed to live in the forests of Thessaly, beyond the laws of man. These mythical creatures may actually have had a basis in real...

Another statue in the Loggia dei Lanzi in Florence is the so-called Rape of Polyxena by Pio Fedi produced between 1855 and 1865. Classically speaking, however, it is not accurate to the original myth. Polyxena is considered the Trojan version of Iphigenia, daughter of Agamemnon and Clytemnestra. She is not in Homer's Iliad, appearing in works by later poets, perhaps to add romance to Homer's austere tale.  During the Trojan War, Polyxena and Troilus were ambushed when they were attempting to fetch water from a fountain, and Troilus was killed by the Greek warrior Achilles, who soon became interested in the quiet sagacity of Polyxena.  Achilles, still recovering from Patroclus' death, found Polyxena's words a comfort and was later told to go to the temple of Apollo to meet her after her devotions. Achilles seemed to trust Polyxena—he told her of his only vulnerability: his vulnerable heel.  It was later in the temple of Apollo that Polyxena's brothers, Paris and Deip...

It is the first Pharaonic historical paintings known as the Naarmer or Narmer as it was written on it. It was written and drawn during the reign of Pharaoh Narmer, who united the two Egyptian faces, and embodied the scene of the unification of the two countries, and the victory of the Pharaonic king over his enemies. The name of the pharaoh on the board is "Naar-Murr" , written with the symbols "Fish" and pronounced "Naaar" and "Chisel" and pronounced "Murr". This difference in pronunciation of the name, as it is believed that the name has several meanings, and archaeologists have not agreed on the true meaning of the name . There is at the top of the panel in the first face, we find two sides of a woman who has an ear and two horns of a cow, which is the goddess Mebat, which was named after Hathor, and between the two sides we find the facade of the palace, “Al-Sarkh” and the name of Narmer is engraved inside, and in the picture below ...

28 MAY 1588 The Spanish Armada set sail with 130 ships and 30,000 men and headed for the English Channel. Its aim was to travel to the Netherlands where an additional 30,000 soldiers were waiting to be transported for a huge planned invasion of England.  The aim of the Armada was to overthrow Queen Elizabeth I and her Protestant regime. It was prompted by Elizabeth's sanctioned execution of Mary, Queen of Scots but King Philip II of Spain's had other reasons to invade England. He wanted to stop English interference in the Spanish Netherlands where they were assisting Dutch Protestant rebels. The plan also aimed to stop English and Dutch privateering against Spanish ships in the Americas.  English ships sailed from Plymouth to attack the Armada as it progressed through the English Channel before anchoring off Calais. The Armada was damaged at the Battle of Gravelines before the Spanish fleet was driven by unfavourable winds up the eastern coast of England.  The Armada fail...

The Father of England - King Alfred the Great burns some cakes and defeats the Vikings (Danes) at the Battle of Ethandun (878): For years, the kingdom of Wessex in Britain, ruled by Alfred, had been under attack from Viking forces. Alfred had maintained a tenuous hold on his throne, but in the beginning of 878, he was forced to flee into the marshes of Somerset to hide from yet another Viking invasion. His time there marked a significant turning point in the history of England and the medieval world. Alfred could have chosen to stay in the swamp and eke out a peasant’s existence, but instead, he emerged to battle the Vikings and, in doing so, shaped the England we know today. . . . Alfred was a scion of the kingdom of the West Saxons, the most powerful and long-lived of the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms. But at the end of the 8th century, the Viking diaspora had suddenly changed all that, and in 878, after bearing the indignity of multiple military defeats and the deaths of all the adult males ...
