Thi is utterly off-topic, but one should not forget that the Holocust was not merely a Jewish phenomenon. Certainly because every film or documentary that comes out about it focuses on Jewish suffering, most people don't actively recall that one half of the world's Gypsy population was destroyed as well. They were the people who were forced by the Nazis to build the camps the Germans marched the Jews into, and they were slaughtered shortly thereafter. And there IS continuing Gypsy oppression that continues throughout Europe, even in what one would assume would be civilized countries. Their land is taken, they are discriminated against and murdered. But because they aren't prominent in the media, no one takes much notice. As a matter of fact, the one sure way of recognizing that trouble is brewing in a country is to watch how it treats its Gypsies. They are usually the first to go, since they are considered disposable. Mike
