Jasiu, did you even watch the film? at about the 58 min mark when they are loading the rail car with paperclips they put 11 million in. 6 million for the jews and 5 million for all the others whom were killed. Posted 10/27/09 by Jasiu
Why are Jewish people the only people remembered as being killed by Hitler and his regime?
I think its horrible that only the Jewish lives are considered important enough to remember as victims of these sinister deeds.
Moving film but at the same time it makes me angry because I had family members killed in the Holocaust who were not Jewish so it gets old to only here about the Jews anytime the Holocaust is mentioned. |
