One of my greatest regrets is not being able to remember everything my great-uncle reminisced about... he fought in the "Great War" of 1914-18 with his two brothers, was gutted that he couldn't serve in WW2 due to the injuries he received in the first one. Told stories that don't get told in any books or shown in any museums. It's important that we remember the sacrifices, the pain, the senselessness of it all

Agreed and hopefully we will learn from our mistakes, but that may be asking to much looking at the caliber of todays leaders?

Don't worry, Israel will keep the Holocaust always alive to justify its holocaust on the Palestinians.

So how old was the oldest Gypsy who survived Hitlers camps?
Or the oldest queer pole, mentally handicapped or slav?

Quote: its not all about jews you know. Of course not. But there has not been any group of people more harassed than the Jews. I do hear other "groups" complain a lot and their persecution is no where near what the Jews went through.

That's because there are plenty of Jews left, other groups were completely wiped from the planet.
For example, the Christians didn't convert the Pagans, the exterminated them.
Or do we only have to remember recent atrocities?

Quote: That's because there are plenty of Jews left, other groups were completely wiped from the planet. Well sure. The holocaust was not the only time the Jews were "destroyed."
Quote: For example, the Christians didn't convert the Pagans, the exterminated them. Which pagans?

Across Europe under the Holy Roman Empire. Humans have been complete bastards to different humans for as long as they have been on the planet, and it continues today, some get greater coverage or a greater write up in the history books.
Australia still has apartheid, but everyone lets them get on with it.
This century alone tens of millions have been displaced or killed around the world simply for being different to those with the biggest guns or pointiest sticks.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

Quote: I take by your inference that the Jewish people are still being abused. No. But if you look throughout history, the holocaust was not the only time someone tried to eliminate them. It has happened many times.

And the three-year warranty replacement will probably still cost an extra $224. Nevah pass up the opportunity when a bargain presents itself.

You can have all the tools in the world but if you don't genuinely believe in yourself, it's useless.
