If you hate us we feel,
If you kick us we fall,
If you shoot us we bleed,
If you kill us we die,
If you think us different we are the same.

The holocaust was and always will be the most horrendous blight on the soul of mankind. There is no one person walking on this earth that is any better than another.
Racism and bigotry and politics will be the end of this world as we know it. We will kill ourselves long before this planet explodes. Brilliant write,

Rita

I think.... this may have a message even greater than you aimed for. Very all encompassing of humanity in general. Most excellent. Seriously, kudos.

And if we love you, what then? a very

compelling write, depicting the most tragic

of all human flaws, the need for catergories,

once again you have pened a magnificent

masterpeice, and all that took, was being

human . . .

truthful thoughts and I very much agree with you.

The severe persucution the jews were subject to by the Germans was horrific, I have watched videos and heard stories, it just breaks my heart.
The cruelty of the world hey.

i AM SURE YOU COULD ADD QUITE A BIT MORE; but how very true, what you have written. It is really a shame that the world finds that so hard to believe.
