Germany, easily.

Just got offed, Friday, 27 June 2008 10:23 (seventeen years ago)

Somehow I don't see Russia winning this

Tom D., Friday, 27 June 2008 10:23 (seventeen years ago)

i don't get this.

GASSING JEWS:

Spain: Popular Spain coach Luis Aragones famously referred to Thierry Henry as a "monkey". His dedication to outrageously offensive ethnic slurs towards black footballers leaves him with little time for anti-semitism.

Germany: Germany was responsible for the death of six millions Jews during the Holocaust. However, its post-1945 Jew-killing track record has been spotty at best, and this is reflected in their mediocre score. [6]

Russia: Russia is a very large country, and could house any number of secret Jew-killing facilities. Their silence on the matter speaks volumes. [10]

MPx4A, Friday, 27 June 2008 10:26 (seventeen years ago)

Call Spain a [3].

MPx4A, Friday, 27 June 2008 10:26 (seventeen years ago)

Can't really bring myself to equate Aragones' runaway mouth with the collective track record of messrs Hitler and Stalin.

Noodle Vague, Friday, 27 June 2008 10:28 (seventeen years ago)

Think you'll find Spain unceremoniously chucked out all its Jews sometime in the Middle Ages, reducing later incidences of anti-Semitism more than somewhat

Tom D., Friday, 27 June 2008 10:29 (seventeen years ago)

I'm going on current state, obviously. Although come to think of it German government has recently been taken over by right-wingers.

Just got offed, Friday, 27 June 2008 10:29 (seventeen years ago)

Yes, in retrospect my GASSING JEWS three way comparison may contain flawed reasoning

MPx4A, Friday, 27 June 2008 10:30 (seventeen years ago)

Russkies invented pogrom! They also fabricated the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, thus being partly responsible for Holocaust.

Cuddly Tsarists

Tom D., Friday, 27 June 2008 10:34 (seventeen years ago)

I weep for you, post-communist Russia.
Your downfall began in 1991, when you chose an obtuse, bloat-faced, fair-headed man named Boris as your leader.

warmsherry, Friday, 27 June 2008 10:39 (seventeen years ago)

Yah it had all been going so well up to that point.

Noodle Vague, Friday, 27 June 2008 10:40 (seventeen years ago)

I see what you did there and I, for one, applaud it (xp)

no way, boris yeltsin was awesome. grandaddy of russian tennis. without yeltsin, no kournikova/myskina/sharapova/safin/dementieva/davydenko/andreev/kuznetsova etc. and they're all wonderful. russia ftw.

lex pretend, Friday, 27 June 2008 10:43 (seventeen years ago)

I always thought Kournikova looked like Yeltsin, chubby Siberian-featured blonde

Tom D., Friday, 27 June 2008 10:45 (seventeen years ago)

kournikova is not a tennis player of importance

i forgot vera zvonareva, who is my current favourite russian <3

lex pretend, Friday, 27 June 2008 10:47 (seventeen years ago)

Aw, Anastasia :)

Tom D., Friday, 27 June 2008 10:48 (seventeen years ago)

she gave birth last month! and has refused to tell the russian press who the daddy is!

lex pretend, Friday, 27 June 2008 10:48 (seventeen years ago)

That's because it's Vladimir Putin!

Tom D., Friday, 27 June 2008 10:49 (seventeen years ago)

good genes on both sides then!

lex pretend, Friday, 27 June 2008 10:50 (seventeen years ago)

Myskina is the hottest, most genuine-looking of the Russian crop, yes.

Just got offed, Friday, 27 June 2008 10:52 (seventeen years ago)

Russia has all the hot female tennis players, but Germany had Becker and Spain has Nadal.

Just saying.

warmsherry, Friday, 27 June 2008 10:57 (seventeen years ago)

Russia has all the hot male tennis players too. Safin, Andreev, Tursunov. Not Davydenko though, as much as I like him.

lex pretend, Friday, 27 June 2008 10:58 (seventeen years ago)

I don't know about Safin, bro. His sister though...

warmsherry, Friday, 27 June 2008 11:00 (seventeen years ago)

Russians be morally objectionable hotties

Tom D., Friday, 27 June 2008 11:00 (seventeen years ago)

Yeah, all those female LBZC members... phew... you can keep your pneumatic Nuts girls

Tom D., Friday, 27 June 2008 11:04 (seventeen years ago)

verona!

banriquit, Friday, 27 June 2008 11:04 (seventeen years ago)

ailsa sorta counts, doesn't she?

Just got offed, Friday, 27 June 2008 11:05 (seventeen years ago)

Germany is significantly less objectionable than the other two here

vaqueros, Friday, 27 June 2008 11:20 (seventeen years ago)

what's spain doing wrong?

banriquit, Friday, 27 June 2008 11:24 (seventeen years ago)

Killing animals for fun, making monkey noises at black people

Tom D., Friday, 27 June 2008 11:25 (seventeen years ago)

Former doesn't bother me so much, that's just silly

Tom D., Friday, 27 June 2008 11:26 (seventeen years ago)

^^^ basically (xpost)

i mean i don't have so many problems with, say, pigeon-shooting, as long as you're doing it privately and you're gonna eat the blessed thing. bullfighting is repugnant.

Just got offed, Friday, 27 June 2008 11:27 (seventeen years ago)

yeah, bullfighting kinda puts the whole chechen war in perspective really.

banriquit, Friday, 27 June 2008 11:28 (seventeen years ago)

Bastian Schweinsteiger's hairstyle puts the whole chechen war in perspective

Tom D., Friday, 27 June 2008 11:29 (seventeen years ago)

Monkey noises also far worse than skinhead gangs going round beating up Turks.

Colonel Poo, Friday, 27 June 2008 11:30 (seventeen years ago)

have you seen portuguese bullfighting? no less barbaric but at least they give the bull a shot at revenge: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=zxWO1N9w5GM

i'm not arguing for spain being worse than russia fwiw, they're miles better as you're all illustrating

Just got offed, Friday, 27 June 2008 11:31 (seventeen years ago)

If you mean the fact that it appears to be fairly acceptable, then yes (xp)

Tom D., Friday, 27 June 2008 11:31 (seventeen years ago)

Not sure how Bagneshevich or Puchkova can really be compared to the routine torture and maltreatment of terror suspects in Spanish jails tbh

cedar, Friday, 27 June 2008 11:41 (seventeen years ago)

Franco was hideously unfashionable so that's Spain out of the running. Some of that CCCP gear was ace but a lot of it is dated. Germany easily takes it with Bryan Ferry-approved Hugo Boss uniforms.

King Boy Pato, Friday, 27 June 2008 13:37 (seventeen years ago)

top three jew-killing countries of the last millenium

max, Friday, 27 June 2008 13:48 (seventeen years ago)

Kind of surprised at the exclusion of Turkey from this one.

dan m, Friday, 27 June 2008 13:53 (seventeen years ago)

Well there aren't many Greek Cypriots on ILX, are there... :D

Just got offed, Friday, 27 June 2008 13:54 (seventeen years ago)

Or Armenians I guess.

dan m, Friday, 27 June 2008 13:56 (seventeen years ago)

Or Kurds

Tom D., Friday, 27 June 2008 13:59 (seventeen years ago)

I'm here!
Yeah I'd go for Spain. It has a great (well it wasn't awful) revolutionary history but ohmygod like don't you people see, they are all morally objectionable, the earth is morally objectionable maaaaaaaan!
I actually love Russia, I love the culture and the history and all how isolated and sinister it is. Its like something out of a bad Van Damme movie.
