A night to remember
On the 66th anniversary of Kristallnacht, Night of the Broken Glass, the historian Dr Rafael Medoff reminds us that no one, no one did much about it but talk. No action: not from the Europeans, not from the Jewish icon FDR and not even the Jewish so called defense organizations. Thus the Germans learned they could continue their evil ways. But those who thought they were safe because only the "other" was endangered were soon targeted and endagered themselves.
That lesson remains.
