First of all Mr menace - sorry but maybe you can teach us all being as your so wise .
What i meant was by using the phrase " forgive and forget " was that it seems that slowly the events of the time are being forgoten and people are confining it to the dephs of history which is wrong , should the familys, victims etc forgive and forget what happened just cause -
" well it was a long time ago , no one like to talk about it these days "
Maybe its because - its not " politicaly correct " as we dont want to upset the germans, as we are all one world etc . who knows ??
But it wasnt a direct attack on german people , more the fact that the events are being lost in the sands of time and the youth of today know nothing about it - prince harry having had the best education in britain at Eaton never knew about it and look at the upbrining he had .
i never was taught about this at school , maybe it was a too horiffic a thing to be taught , and like i said didnt know bout it till i read the article in the paper - im 27 years old so im no kid .
my main point was we should not forget this and it should be taught more in schools and made sure things like this never happen again . sixty years ago is not that long at all and that i could forgive my grandad for the hatred he had.
mr menace the other question bout what the german people are doing to commemorate the aniversary - was becauase im intersested , it was not an aggresive attack .also the fact you said they gave money to jews well thats ok then, maybe the americans should give some money to the indians im sure everthing will be fine .
i didnt start this thread to argue , more to show respect to the victims of this terrible event in time which ashamably i never knew about , maybe mr menace you should do some research yourself and read my original thread , that is of course if you can grace us with your time being the scholar and knowledgable person you so obviously are .
