"The most horrific crime in modern history.."

Is it?


Yes, because of the milieu in which it occurred--carried out by what may have been the most highly cultured nation in the world--a country which reached tremendous heights in art, music, literature and science. It showed that all aspects of civilization may vanish in a relative nanosecond.

That is why Germans of the first half of the 20th century exterminating Jews is more "horrific" than anything that might have been done by backwards, "warrior" cultures.

It is as horrific as if the most civilized person you could imagine suddenly pulled out an axe and sliced a child in two.
