Sympathy, yes... but there's something additional to what's been termed the Holocaust... it represents a SYSTEMATIC extermination of groups of people like the world has never seen before or since. Yes I agree. You mentioned your distant relative in Poland, who got killed by Hitler. Sorry for that but having said so, being a catholic Pole she was hardly a Holocaust victim by your own definition. Having said that, the greatest injustice in the world that I can think of is the fact that the Turks are still allowed to deny the Armenian Genocide of WWI. Yes, totally agree on this. A little book "Anneannem" (My Grandmother) by Fethiye Cetin is now on sale in Turkey and for sure will also make it to the US because of her close family ties to Armenian descendents and distant relatives of her, who escaped to the US back in 1915. I read an extensive article about her and the fate of her ancestors as narrated by her grandmother shortly before she died. This woman who grew up in a Turkish home had no clue she was Armenian and what happened back then. You talk about Japanese denial of WW II but it seems like they could learn a lot about denial from the Turks. Taro

Any of those, call it collateral damage or whatever the current term is, deserves our fullest sympathy. None of them more or less than others. Sympathy, yes... but there's something additional to what's been termed the Holocaust... it represents a SYSTEMATIC extermination of groups of people like the world has never seen before or since. Having said that, the greatest injustice in the world that I can think of is the fact that the Turks are still allowed to deny the Armenian Genocide of WWI. And to continue their genocide of the Kurds. ted
