Millison:

<< is "jbor" suggesting that Pynchon is saying, by extension, extrapolating 
frmo the Herero case, that the Jews committed suicide in the Holocaust -- is 
that, finally, "jbor's" point?>>

He has made no suggestion about the Jews and the Holocaust.  That would be 
you.  He was quoting Pynchon on the Hereros.

<<That would fit with the arguments "jbor" has presented, repeatedly, 
vis-a-vis the Holocaust and Nazi crime material that Pynchon weaves through 
GR, the consistent effort that "jbor" has made to read GR as a novel that 
avoids blaming the Nazis for the crimes that make up such a significant part 
of the novel>>

This is your inaccurate paraphrase, repeated here for what must be the 
twentieth (thirtieth) time (while calling him a liar, a Holocaust denier, 
etc. (and that while accusing him of name calling and slander)).  He has made 
no such effort.

That you're apparently insane strips your comments of much of their value and 
power, but it makes you no less loathsome or any more worthy of sympathy.
