Re: Jewish students attacked at Auschwitz
To respond to a few things, first, I made a note if this should be deleted because I know it's a touchy subject and I really don't want anyone to be offended in any way. Second, I agree with RudimentaryPeni, don't think that all French people are this way, just in this case, that's where the anti-semetic comments came from. What's really alarming to me is to think that in such a modern world that we live in now, where cultures and races mix so constantly, that there would be such people willing to put down others and try to raise themselves above other races, indeed, even using one of the darker moments in history to do so.
I also do not want to single out Jews, throughout history, as Max L said, virtually every race has been persecuted, the Chinese in Nanking, Cambodians under Pol Pot, Armenians under Turkey, the list goes on.
Edit: I had included Japanese Internment Camps in my list of persecutions, but, as one CD member brought up to me, it pales in comparison to the horrendous acts of the others listed, so I've removed it.
