Deep Topic

I was watching Schinlders List the other day and thinking about howwhen the holocaust is refaired to it is always through numbers. 6 million jews killed etc. The personal story of those who survived. Schindlers List personalises what has happened. Primo Levi (a surviver of the holocaust) writes in both his books about what he suffered at the hands of the Nazi's and later under the "care" of Soviet Forces. "If This Is A Man" tells the story of his time in a German Concentration camp. "The Truce" tells of what happened to the surviving jews after the holocaust. They are both very good books documenting the holocaust in vivid detail. Primo comited suicide shortley after he wrote the books.

In todays world it is not the jews who live oppressed but other groups. With the rise of YBNP camps that mirror the Hitler Youth we know the history but are we unable to see the future. We have knowledge but as a wise man once said to me. "Knowledge without wisdom is useless because knowledge is knowing something. Wisdom is knowing to apply the knowledge that you have today."
