These offical acts of French authorities echo the Communist authorities white
washing the names of of the thousands of Jews both the Prague and Budapest
Jewsish communites had recorded on the walls of their synagogues of Jews who
died in the holocaust from their countries- 600000 in the case of Hungary.
It reflects tour books that record the events of Czech and Hungarian history
but skip over that there were Jews there as long as there were Christians and
that they were efficiently and thoroughy destroyed using the best technology
available by the German authorities and their allies.

recent history of Croatia, Bosnia and Serbia.
I'm sorry that Mike's attempt to pass on some satire has taken this somber
turn- but I think we must all ask ourselves how "civilized people" can act
so savagely to other humans. And we must oppose those who would obliterate the
memories.
