Justice is sometimes confused with vengeance. When the human soul has been attacked, it desires something deeper than what is merely physical. There is a longing for justice through acknowledgment. When an unspeakable atrocity like genocide is committed, sometimes the only justice is in the power of remembrance and the realization that the past dictates the future. Forgetting the Holocaust is its greatest injustice...and that is why we must never forget.

I have no idea what could possibly make what happened after that huge genocide any better... everyone should know about what happened and who did it! everyone needs to know that happened! and i don't think that its to late to seek justice! everyone who survived and are still alive.. i respect you all so deeply.

As you can see Lorraine i carry the same last name as your distant relative - I'd imagine we're also related somewhere,somehow - Its human nature that we need to be aware of - To be German is not to be a Nazi - There are people out there every bit as evil, right now.We should'nt forget,but we should'nt hold present day Germans,and not everyone who had the misfortune to be in the German military during that sad chapter to be as evil as the Administration was.

Many beautiful people were killed in the Holocaust.
I cannot believe in your research here that 1.5 million children were killed in the Holocaust.

I took care of three Jewish Children for 5 years and we became friends for 10 years, yet after the anthrax attacks and September 11th attacks, the marriage dissolved.
I was so sad at what happened to my Jewish friends. I loved them so much. I prayed so many years and so hard for them, even though I am Orthodox Roman Catholic.

Many books have been written, and I have read many, and seen many documentaries and been to the United States Holocaust Museum around age 27.
My father told me that his great uncle saved possible Holocaust victims.
Our church is Saint
Maximillian Kolbe, Holocaust martyr.

I did a research paper on the Holocaust when I was fifteen years old. This created something in me. I have been researching and studying about it for 6 years now. We must all bear witness.
