Holocaust video

[sheldonlg]

I received this email this morning, but have not yet had a chance to
look at it:
==================================================================

This story was aired on CBS on "60 MINUTES" ** about a long-secret
German archive that houses a treasure trove of information on 17.5
million victims of the Holocaust. The archive, located in the German
town of Bad Arolsen, is massive (there are 16 miles of shelving
containing 50 million pages of documents) and until recently, was
off-limits to the public. But after the German government agreed earlier
this year to open the archives, CBS News' Scott Pelley traveled there
with three Jewish survivors who were able to see their own Holocaust
records. It's an incredibly moving piece, all the more poignant in the
wake of the meeting of Holocaust deniers in Iran and the denial speeches
in the UN. We're trying to get word out about the story to people who
have a special interest in this subject.

It is now more than 60 years after the Second World War in Europe ended.
This e-mail is being sent as a memorial chain, in memory of the six
million Jews, 20 million Russians, 10 million Christians and 1,900
Catholic priests who were murdered, massacred, raped, burned, starved
and humiliated with the German and Russia peoples looking the other way!
Now, more than ever, with Iran, among others, claiming the Holocaust
to be "a myth," it is imperative to make sure the world never forgets.

This e-mail is intended to reach 40 million people worldwide!

Join us and be a link in the memorial chain and help us distribute it
around the world.

Please send this e-mail to 10 people you know and ask them to continue
the memorial chain.

Please don't just delete it. It will only take you a minute to pass this
along -

the links to "CBS Holocaust, Parts 1 & 2"

Thanks, Shelly.

I looked at these; thanks! Horrifying and sobering. It's a great
shame these records weren't opened many years ago; people could have
found out about their relatives, who in some cases were still
living.

Excuse me , alt.revisionism DOES NOT `DISCUSS` HOLOCUAST , it is
stuffed with people who try to post all kinds of Denial posts. or
false stories.
And may i tell you that Holocuast is not a matter of discussion, it
is researched, seriously by many experts,and it is memorized by many
of our people.
