As for your naive attempt to draw a comparision to Native Americans or the Bosnians, that is a sad reflection of your ignorance indeed. Never has
there been a systematic genocide of an entire populace of people with the kind of scale, scope and brutality that was done by the Nazi regeim .
I know I keep coming back to Cambodia...but out of a pre-war population of between 5 and 7 million, the KR killed an estimated 1.5-3 million
Cambodians, the largest proportional genocide of the 20th century, which included nearly the complete destruction of the Cambodian Chams.
In Australia there is not one true-blood Tamsmanian Aborigine left alive, check out when the last, Truganini, died.
At Srebrenica 8,000 men and boys were separated from their families and shot.
In Rwanda 800,000 (and possibly 1 million) were killed in 100 days.
The Armenians can't even get their genocide recognised by the Turkish government, who weren't even the ruling regime at the time it happened.
Do you know who the Simbas were and what they did in the Congo?
Cry me a river about the one holocaust I've been hearing about all my life and which had the most successful and far-reaching prosecution of all.
The Bosnians were raped, beaten and maybe shot in the head; a life of privelege in comparision to the horrors of being subjected to a Nazi
concentration camp with no hope of escape, survival or even the relief of death.
Utterly pathetic
The atrocities done on the native american people also pale in comparision to what was done in Auschwitz and Birkenau! In fact the native
american community today is one of the most priveleged groups of natives in all the western world.
In stark contrast to the Palestinians...
No other nation in the west bends the rules so much for their native populace or gives them so many perks.
Go find out about Wounded Knee. Hell, watch Thunderheart if that's what it takes to get informed...
No other nation in the west bends the rules so much for their native populace or gives them so many perks.
Except for the blanket protection they give their other "native" race at the UN. Where that handy permanent-seat veto is trotted out any time the
Security Council drafts something slightly critical of Tel Aviv...
