I agree with you that every ethnic cleansing that happened in the past and every ethnic cleansing that happened in our present time should be exposed to the humanity in order to make every man aware that horrible acts of humans didn't end with the holocaust.

the evils are ubiquitous -- they can happen anywhere -- and they've
happened everywhere.

That's why we need to repeat the teaching of this lesson.

and not repeat the evils.

I agree, and I thank you for sharing this with us.  I believe that the Holocaust MUST NEVER be forgotten.  Shalom..

Of course you are correct. All acts of genicide must be exposed and
remembered. Besides evil is now saying that the holocaust never happened and this must be stamped out bu presenting the proof

This is a very important activity. People have short memories, so it's necessary to retell the facts. As events in for example ex-Yugoslvavia show that from time to time there are still those who still go in for ethnic cleansing.

Thanks for your visit Mal, yes we could well have got up to tricks together had our paths crossed.

I think it's a vital part of history, an evil time and people
need to know the truth. Thanks for posting this
