However, it appears once again I'm out of sync on these Leica sites. Sorry fellas I was looking for Leica the camera made in Germany, and not another world sociological situation! I'll just move along and have another try some place else. Thank you. > > ted grant > > Maciver2@aol.com wrote: > > > Paul Chefurka said: "the Holocaust has a special place in the pantheon of genocide". That's where I disagree. It's ALL TERRIBLE. It's not just Germans, not just Russians, not just Turks, not just American settlers, not just arab slave traders, not just Englishman (of which I am one) "empire building", not just Jews with their rocket launching helicopters against stone wielding palestinians...It's all of us...And I believe the message is that unless and until we all realize that hatred and exploitation, cruelty, domination, greed, anger, cold-blooded murder lurk in all of our psyches, it will continue.
