I agree. Never forget. But why is there no world day to remember the 20 million that were killed under Soviet Union's Stalin? He killed 3 times more than Hitler did. ..so why?
Anonym , the same thing could have been said to every other nation/culture committing crime toward other or their own people. We in Europe or in the west see Holocaust above many other similar events, because this was that hit us home the hardest, but we remembering on our own things won't take away the importance of other events. Sure thigns were bad under Stalin, and the same things were done in every Soviet states, even in Europe, in Romania, Hungary, but not that China, Korea, or Japan was different. And we could go back in time, or even just forward to the current times.
Just a question to you Anonym. What is the difference between your best friend , or some unknown person from Sudan die? Is there any difference, importance in the two events? Your mourning will goes to one, but not to the other, you know that. Is it bad that you feel a difference, or don't care of the ones you never ever heard of? The ones whos relatives and families sufferend under anyone will remember, I do so to the ones from my family who were there, and even that they are gone, their passed their legacy to those who cared for them, and that will live as long as we.
