John 4.2 late

I recently did a current event for my Government Civics class about a man who lost his job at the University of Colorado for writing a news article about 9/11, referring to the victims as "little Eichmanns" Adolf Eichmann was a Nazi who was very involved in the extermination of the Jews during WWII. The man who wrote the article was wrongfully accused and was compensated only $1.

  2. I think what frightens me the most is how the Holocaust is very relevant with genocide happening in Darfur and anti-semitism on the rise again in Europe, yet there are still people who refuse to face history and learn from it.

  3. Yikes. Some people really do get gung-ho about all this.
    And sometimes, it's hard to forgive--some people find it really easy to pass out judgement, even when they have little to no familiarity with the situation.
