CB,

<<< It's here, Mary. It's being directed at Jews and Christians, and it's called jihad. Take a look at Sudan, take a look all over the Middle East. Christians and Jews are being persecuted and killed.>>>

It is not fair to compare the suffering of the Jews in Nazi Germany to your examples.

In Fact, it is almost like a joke. It's like Larry David's "Curb Your Enthusaism" episode where the guy from the Survivor TV show describing the sufferings he had to go through to a survivor of the Holocaust. The TV show survivor described how they didn't have toilets and were made to do horrible things.

To be sure there is a lot of suffering today. There are people being unjustafiablly killed today - not only Jews and Christians. But (in my opinion) none of this is like what the Jews went through in Nazi Germany. In my opinion, that is to trivialize the holocaust.
