What to do with Germany edit
I've reverted the edits concerning What to do with Germany until we can get some footnotes here. The added text implies that Nizer favored mass sterilization, but that's not clear from the reviews of the book which I've encountered. Mackensen (talk) 12:25, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
- He suggests "mass sterilization" discussing the issue in the booklet, but is in favor of exterminating the Germans by means of mixing. One shudders in the light of what's happening now. --105.1.180.153 (talk) 12:04, 1 February 2018 (UTC)
- There were several books of that kind published in the Anglo-sphere at that time. --213.172.154.200 (talk) 10:03, 3 April 2018 (UTC)

Perhaps someone should actually read "What to do with Germany" - Nizer does not advocate mass sterilization, he considers and rejects the idea, see 1. Extermination and Sterilization — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aileron Spades (talk • contribs) 20:15, 28 January 2020 (UTC)
It's common in far right circles to cite a quotation from a review of the book as proof that Nizer advocated genocidal action against the German people. Even reading the full review it's obvious that Nizer did not advocate that. I used another book review to add a few sentences about the book to the article.

That is true, but how come terms like "far right" are often used, but never "Far Left"? The former is certainly applicable at times, but so is the latter. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.49.27.38 (talk) 21:52, 10 March 2023 (UTC)
Finger edit
"When a man points a finger at someone else, he should remember that four of his fingers are pointing at himself." - Louis Nizer
This is certainly his most famous quotation but to add it we must know where it is from? (I cannot find a source. It's a famous Orthodox Jewish saying about "loshon hara" (gossip).- D.A. Los Angelees) EDLIS Café 13:45, 27 January 2015 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by EdRicardo (talk • contribs)
