    African holocaust day…What is this all about. We must not live in the past ,but only in the present,and the fucture.our poor ansesters suffered terribly,but we must not glote or celibrate their suffering,but raise above it.that they will know that their sacrifices were not in vain, that they die so we can live. to hell with all that slave talk and rememberance,it only serve to give this generation a huge inferiority complex.the whole nation of Jews were slaves in Egypt,and we dont see them feeling sorry for themselves,they are sure that the Arabs will never ever be able to do it again.They have developed unity and strength,love, and protection for each other,for every jew life lost,they take 100,in their,place. Consiquences,is the order of the day. although they are surrounded they will always live in peace. God bless Them.
