“Calm Down. ISIS isn’t Winning.”
That’s the title of the next article on the NY Times web page.
Why strange history? Obama is doing the same, believing Socialist welfare will shut people up regarding his antisemitism. Being black, even Jews dare not rebuke him or his friend of ilk Hillary

Sad, heartbreaking, I feel numb in thought and great sadness.
We can not let this happen again, but it is, while on a seemingly smaller scale at the moment..... it is happening.
What will we do and when will we do it?
It was shameful because a civilised country (Germany) did it — we thought we were past it. however, there was also the Armenian holocaust, the Porajmos (slaughter of Gipsies by nazis), Rwanda etc.
If you do that, you're being inaccurate.
The Nazis murdered about as many non-Jews as Jews.
They killed a much higher percentage of Jews than of any other largish group, but that was of course of little comfort to murdered non-Jews.
Roughly 2/3 of Jews in areas under Hitler's control died. About 25% of Roma. To pick two groups the Nazis hated the most.
And it ain't gonna be Isis.
Smaller scale? It’s global.
How about: Calm please, ISIS is only winning a little.
So what’s really new about this? Government’s have a nasty tendency to butcher their citizenry in large numbers whenever it becomes politically expedient. Most people will look the other way when it happens.
What’s interesting to me is how people express outrage at the act itself, yet don’t seem to make the connection to governments more or less routinely using mass murder as an act of political expediency. At pretty much any given time, some government somewhere is killing off its people. So remind me: why are governments necessary? Because citizens would do what without the strong hand of governance to guide them? They might Kill each other? It would seem that governments do a pretty good job of killing people in large numbers notwithstanding.
Never Again! At least until next week...
Oddly, liberals seek to rebuild the socialist empire, or maybe it isn’t so odd but is in the character of every proglodyte on the planet.
I’ve seen all too many photos (and films) shot at the camps.I’m not sure I want to see a film even *more* vivid than the ones I’ve already seen.
I think Simon Weisenthal has said that about 11 million people died in the camps,about 6 million of whom were Jews.
CH4 in the UK showed it primetime (9pm) with much pre-press in the UK, it got large ratings.
I watched it, and it is the most horrific footage I have seen. But such a worthwhile film.
That's exactly what I'm afraid of.I know that the Brits liberated some of the camps,we liberated some and the Ruskies did as well.I can see why Brits might take a special interest in this subject because,among other things,there were very probably more than a few who actually died in those camps.
I also find it interesting that Hitchcock was involved.
Wounded Knee? The trail of tears?
We have our own history of shame.

Hitchcock,,

Look to the Orson Welles movie, The Stranger.
