Dennis you said the same thing as me but without emotion.
My mother was in a Japanese concentration camp in Java (a lot like our detention centers and almost as bad) and my father was a teenager in Holland when the Nazis invaded.
Needless to say they both survived. They taught me not to get bitter but don't forget that ordinary people did these unspeakable things to each other at the urging of their respective governments. This was basically driven by 'difference' or 'ethnicity' only to rationalise their unlawful behavior. Where I come from it is called stealing!
I am afraid we will see a lot more of this in the near future as Global Warming makes our over used resources even less to go around.
The next wars will be fought over water not oil!
