The death of the Polish President and his entourage in a airplane crash caught my attention for the paradoxical and irony of the fact that they were all going to Russia for a memorial of the slaughter of thousands of Polish soldiers by the Soviet Army in the Katyn forest.
Thousands and thousands sooner or later make millions dead. And it reminds me that the Holocaust is not an event solely reserved to the Jewish Nation to observe and commemorate with aspirations of "Never again!"
Millions of all the peoples of Europe were slaughtered, some with planning, some on the spur of the moment, but killed they were. It was a true feast of Death, The Celebrity, who was the focus of our fears and desires.
We all have a part in the memorial of the Holocaust. If we deny it, we deny our ancestors, who in turn will deny us before the throne of God.
