One final Warsaw moment

I made one last venture out before we headed home. Khrystene took me to the Jewish Cemetary, which has been used continuously for several centuries and contains the tombs of more than 150,000 people. It borders the area that once held the Jewish Ghetto, which was bulldozed after the Nazis had herded Warsaw's 400,000 Jewish people in early in the war, ultimately murdering or transporting every last one. There are some breathtaking memorials, including one that remembers the one million Jewish children who died in the Holocaust.

The world has seen many human rights abuses in my lifetime, and there have been other genocides. But not one on this scale.

We must never forget it; in case, by our silence and inaction, we somehow allow another such dictator to rise up and take power and then stay there.
