Today is Holocaust Remembrance Day. It has been only 60 years since the holocaust. we remember those that suffered, those that fought, and those that died. Six million Jews were murdered. Many families were completely decimated. Everyone please say a prayer before you go to bed tonight. Think about what all of these people went trough. Each and everyone one of thoes people killed in death camps were special people and loved by someone and loved others.
absolutely we must never forget what happened its not so long ago that there were camps in Bosnia where Muslims Croats and Christians in short anyone who wasn't Serbian, were imprisioned starved and beaten it could so easily happen again...but we cant forget the 20 million {conservative estimate} who died under Stalin he was if anything far more ruthless and paranoid than Hitler
I think that it is important to remember such attrosities and to educate people about the severity of them. People should be taught in school about the evil and cruel behaviour of the nazis and communists. It is still the case that a person can be persecuted in some countries because of their race, genda, etc. The world must clamp down on such countries, and refuse to trade with them or provide them with any aid. Obviously when the people are starving in some of them and its all the governments fault, those people should then be encouraged to overthrow the state so we don't have to.
Yes and in turn the entire population of the oppressed state risk being anihilated let's all applaud the utter insanity of the massacre of almost an entire nation...
The people cannot be beaten by a government because the army usually switches sides if the uprising is popular enough and if outside pressure is good enough, then the government will inevitibley be overthrown. In Ukraine, Georgia, and azerbaijan, very few people died.
You guys just ruined my post..... It was suppost to be a sweet prayer type post.....
Prayer or not, it seems that very few young people today know about the Holocaust. From those who have heard about it, very few believe it wa true and that so many people died. In other words, if young people (30 and younger) today don't know about the Holocaust and how it came to be, they are bound to repeat the mistakes of the past and relive such horror. It is sad that a world that thinks it is educated, has forgotten the worst event of the last century! It is not only sad, it is scary!!! Star

I haven't met a single person yet who does not know what the holocost was. I am pretty surprised at seeing your post claiming that this is the case. In the U.S. for sure it is not the case, Schindler's List just as an example is a great movie and most people I know have seen it (and of course it's a part of all European 20th Century history programmes I've come across). I wish the Israelis wouldn't have been so quick to forget about the suffering before passing the suffering onto the land sthat they occupied in 1967. At least I'm happy that peace is being brought about or at least people are trying to. People have always suffered and made others suffer, be it the Holocost or more recently people of what used to be Yugoslavia, I don't think people will ever learn but I'd definitely want to do anything in my power to encourage them to.

In1996 the Kurdish nationm banking on a prmoise from Bush senior launched an attack on Saddam hussein he retaliated by almost blowing them off the face of the earth..the remaining Kurds took to the hills in terror in winter with temperatures averaging -12! ..needless to say many died inculding women old people and numerous children....how easily those oppressed and desperate people fell for america's disingenuous lies!
I wish we could open the camps and gas chambers back up, for one last person Goblin! It would make the zone and world a better place.
LOL!
What I wrote wildbrew was based on a survey and eventual documentary they did here in the USA and in Europe. Yes, Shindler's List was a hit movie but how many teenagers went to see it? Unfortunately, inspite of the movie, the Holocaust and the lessons humanity could learn are falling very short. Maybe in Europe the problem is less severe but in the USA very few 15-25 year olds know what the Holocaust is. Star
